Hysterectomy - Post Op

Well, the dreaded day came and went. The first few days were crazy thanks to my low blood pressure, but I made it through and was able to come home on Thursday. I had a full abdominal hysterectomy with removal of my uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries and cervix. The surgeon told me afterwards that the pathology report came back showing endometriosis on my tubes and ovaries and that my uterus was "mush" (her words). I should feel great in a few weeks. So far, I am not having any menopause symptoms. (which has surprised me) Monday I go to have my staples removed and start hormone therapy. I am in a lot of pain, but I am up and around and not feeling as bad as I expected to feel. The nausea has been the worst part...Zofran is my best friend.  :)

Thank you for all the Prayers...
