I had my hysterectomy over 12 months ago and I'm still suffering really bad back ache at the lower of my back and just woundered if anyone else was experiencing the same.

Thanks Kelly

    Hi Kelly I had my op 24 weeks ago which was Nov last year. I've got got lower left side back pain which comes ans gos. But woke up with the pain after my op and it's stayed with me. But I have had problems with my bladder so not sure if it's to do with that?

      Hi Sam

      Thanks for your reply. I've also had a scan on my back because at times the pain is that awful but they say that everything is fine.

      When you say you had bladder problems do you mean infections? I am very prone to water infections even before my op but I do have problems still when I can be absolutely desperate for a wee and I get there and nothing happens for a while was never like that before even though I was use to getting water infections.

      I've not had a scan as of yet just scan on my tummy to look at kidneys ans bladder and had bladder scan but nothing showed up. But yes I keep getting water infections never had them before the op. So I think they will have to go in and look into my bladder tube in case it's stuck after the op thats causing my back pain and water infections. My back pain comes and gos it's come back again this week because I think ive got another infection again. But going hospt about my bladder so I will get checked tomorrow. I did have eccpuncer which was brilliant for my lower back pain and she helped with my sleep you should try It. Is your pain there all the time?

      No it comes and goes, I think I will try acupuncture for my back and if it helps with sleep that's two problems sorted :-)

      Yes Kelly you should read it up. Where abouts in the UK do you live? Iam still rubbish at sleep but Iam working on it. I've been hospt today ans got to have a camera in my bladder to check to see if any problems there.
