Hi ladies!! New to the forum, was just
online trying to see if the extreme
swelling I am experiencing in my hands and
feet may be from all the changes in my
body since the hysto 11+ weeks ago. I am
29 years old and a mother of three
beautiful children the doc's said I would
never be able to have.( guess I proved
them wrong!!Lol) anyway in the weeks since
the hysto I have slowly begun swelling
just a little at a time but now I wake up
today and my hands are so swollen that my
wedding ring won't move on my finger and
my finger is this pink color. Anyway not
the point....This swelling really hurts.
My skin hurts and I can't make a fist
today due to it. My feet are also swollen
and sore. I will make a appt to see the
doc but if anyone has any advice or
thoughts on the issue it would be greatly
appreciated. I thought maybe it may
menopause symptoms or something. I did
have the ovaries, uterus and cervix
removed as I have suffered for years with
endometriosis and polycystic syndrome and
cervical pre stage cancer as well. Here I
thought the hysto would be the answer to
all that ailed me.

Hello...
I am not sure about it relating to the
surgery but I do work for a cardiologist
and know that swelling of the extremities
can indicate anything heart related to
kidney related......I would def. Bring
this up to your pcp and have some tests to
rule out anything serious
