Had Total Hysterectomy 10-28
Posted: 11-08-03 08:02am

I am 52 and was in the hospital 4 days. There was more pain than I had expected but once I got home was much better. I retained alot of water but just kind of sore now. Everyone said not to do anything and that's the truth. I felt pretty good 9 days after so decided to wipe down the bathroom. Don"t do it. You'll pay later. Just really tired the rest of the day and night. Today (11 days after) my husband and I went to a movie. It was ok but that is all I am doing for the rest of the evening. I am glad I had it and am on the mend. Good luck to everyone else.

Congratualtions barb,

thats lovely to hear that you are feelings so much better. My mum is 59 and she just had a hysterectomy. It took her about 2 weeks to recover, she was in bed the whole time, although she suffers severe anxiety and has anurysms on the brain aswell, which didn't help matters. But I know how worried your family must have been. The hysterectomy also triggered menopause, so now she is taking hormone treatment, which I think helps. Good luck barb, i'm sure you will be feeling 100% in no time.
