I am only a week out from my surgery.I had stage four endometriosis. I had my right ovary removed last year and then more cysts formed in my left ovary. The doctor said the hysterectomy was my best plan of attack. I would like to speak to other women to see what should I expect. I have about 20 staples and the incision hurts all of the time. It seems impossible to get comfortable. I have questions on what hormone therepy path should I take? I am 32 years old and I have no children, and I am not married. The emotional side has finally set in and it scares me. What is a good plan to deal with that? I have read about maintaining a good diet. What are some things I need to be eating and not eating to prevent the endometriosis from coming back.
