So glad they are gone!! My exerience 4 weeks post op

I had my Total Abdominal Hysterectomy on January 20th. That experience for me, was horrible. The only thing I remember from the actual surgery was waking up screaming and falling asleep, then waking up screaming multiple times during recovery. I am not going to lie, it hurt! But then the morphine kicked in... and life was better. 

My doctor told me I was the worst case he has ever had in his 13 years of practicing. He even took a picture of my uterus in a bucket. My fibroids grew on top and below my uterus, and even grew roots.

I totally want to post a picture of it.... because I think it's cool looking and so you can see the severety. ( But I wont)

I lost a lot of blood, so had to get a blood transfusion. From that I got a blood infection... and I also developed pnemonia. ( Hope I spelled that right, if not you get the idea) I had to stay in the hospital 8 days, which was a real pain.

Well, 4 weeks later and I am able to finally do things. Today I washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen and cooked. ( because nobody does it as  good as me) and cleaned my bedroom. But then I got tired. I still get tired. And also sometimes I still feel pressure in my stomach. My husband still doesn't let me carry anything heavy.
