just an infection and nothing to worry
about,weven though i kept telling them
that things didnt feel right now i feel so
let down.i wish id never had it done feels
like i went in hospital as me and came out
as someone else and my marridge is

It seems that you are experiencing a
severe post-operative complication:
infection of the operative wound and
reaction against surgical stitches in the
wound. Depression can be related to these
complications, but not necessarily. You
can ask for your legal rights from the
hospital wherethe hysterectomy was
performed. The doctors there must cure
your post-operative complication.
