Full abdominal hysterectomy 10 years ago, never a discharge.

I've been having low abdominal pain for five days, this after what seemed like a stomach virus on the first day. Today I woke up to a lime green discharge. I have never really had any discharge since my hysterectomy in 2006. My stomach is tender to the touch. I'm out of town helping with my new grandchild and am not sure what to do. The discomfort is bearable, but I have a 10 hour drive to make in 10 days, to get back home. I'm 61 and have not had intercourse for a very long time, so no std, I'm sure. Please, any info would be appreciated.

    Sorry to learn you're having troubles.  I would suggest that you see a doctor as soon as you can and not try to tough it out.  Best to get it sorted before you need to get out on the road.  I wouldn't attempt a 10 hour drive if I was not well, especially if medical care could have helped.

    It could be nothing, but it could be something, too.  So, see a doctor!  Best of luck to you!  Let us know how you do!
