Feeling good
Posted , 5 users are following.
So i had my full hystorectomy on 20th September and I don't feel any different than I did before even when I woke up from surgery I didn't actually believe I had had my surgery I've not had a lot of pain or any side effects and I'm wondering what the heck is going on ... I'm waiting constantly for this bug fall and it's not happening.... in all honesty I would really like to get back to work ..... crazy to think that less than a fortnight ago I was terrified I was going to die in surgery now in sat wondering wtf!!!! Is this normal ?

Hi Elaine, so glad you have come out the other side relatively unscathed, I did as well so it is normal for some of us, I didn't experience any pain at all, the nurses came round every 4 hours to offer pain relief and each time I said no thanks, you may feel like going back to work but unless you have a very sedentary job...........don't do it, I can't emphasise that enough, your body needs time to heal, even with vaginal (plus laparoscope) as I had, muscles etc had to be cut through so they need to heal and the recommended time as you probably know is 6 weeks and you are still at very early days, make the most of the rest.

Was your surgery robotic?

Hope you continue to stay well but please do not rush, you may feel great but the inside of your body does need some time to heal!
