11 weeks post TAH and feeling like something is stuck?!

I'm 11 weeks post TAH and constantly have the feeling that there is something stuck in my vaginal area. I have been to a physio and have been doing my exercises. My surgeon suggested that it could be that it's just the feeling of another organ that has settled above my vagina to take the place of my uterus and cervix and that eventually my mind would forget about it. I just can't seem to shake the feeling that something is stuck or going to fall out?! Has anyone else had a similar experience? How long did it last and did you find anything helped? Thanks in anticipation for any replies.

      Hi Bridy...I have just read your post! It's really reassuring to know that we're not alone in how we feel. I rang my surgeon today. He wasn't in and one of the nurses at his practice said they would speak to him and call me back tomorrow. I'll keep you posted. Let me know how you progress. x
