Myomectomy Experience | Surgery Day & Post Op
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- In this video I discuss the first three days of my Open Myomectomy experience. I had an Open Myomectomy on March 29, 2021 to remove large fibroids from my uterus. I spent 3 days and 2 nights in the hospital. I talk about pain management, my first time walking after surgery, how I felt and how I am recovering so far. I will be making more video uploads tracking my progress as I heal and recover.

U are very strong women cos u went through alot, I'm so so proud of you. Woow
Thank youuu
Wishing you a speedy recovery. I had the same procedure done a few year ago and went through the same recovery process. Unfortunately, the fibroids grew back. I had to continously receive a lot of blood transfusions and iron infusions due to low hemoglobin from heavy periods. To make a long story short, it was either my life or my uterus. Sadly I had a partial hysterectomy two weeks ago. During the procedure they realized that my uterus was stuck to my bladder. A result of scar tissue from the myomectomy. They had to cut through my bladder to remove my uterus. I basically had two surgeries instead of one. I had to be discharged with a Foley until my bladder healed. I'm doing very well now. Unfortunately I never had children so if this is something you desire, please work on it. There is a chance the fibroids will grow back. I did get pregnant right after my myomectomy but it ended in miscarriage. Me saying all this is not to scare anyone but I think as women we need to be aware of different issues that can affect our bodies. I wish someone had told me earlier.
I’m so sorry you had to go through this. Fibroids are a lot more dangerous than people think. I’m so so sorry!
I just got diagnosed with fibroids. Watching you and your journey has given me strength. Thank you for sharing. May the good lord bless you with all the children your heart desires.
Thank you so much! Sending positive vibes on your journey ♥️
Awwww my pretty boo. I miss you.. I pray you heal very well. Take great care huns.
Thanks love 💕
Girl ..now your cycles going to be light lol before surgery I was wearing size 3 extra heavy flow maxi fat pads... now I wear the regular flow ultra thin pads(organic cotton of course)...I had my open myomectomy Dec 16, 2020 and I am elated.. just like you my doctor only saw 3 fibroids on the vaginal and abdominal ultrasound but when he opened me up there were 2 small ones hiding..thank God he took every last one out.. he didnt leave nothing behind lol..I am so grateful now my husband and I gonna wait bout 3 or 4 more months to start trying and girlll I tell you your sex drive is gonna increase as well
Yassss 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💕 I literally can’t wait. I feel like I should’ve done this sooner. You’re at your 3 month mark so you can start trying!
Girl dont tempt me lol...but yeah you right.. my doctor/surgeon said we can start trying at 3 months post op but hubby wanna wait he just want to be sure that its completely safe for both baby and me
I understand! I’m so happy that you’re healing & body is free from those monsters. You’ll have your baby soon 🙌🏾
I had this done in 2016 and they grew back
Hi i just had my myomectomy 3 days ago the size was 14 cm and i was crying for the pain in recovering time it is so painful i hate when i go to bathroom😩i hope i am feeling better soon🙏🏻
I’m so sorry you had to go through that Vanessa. You look so beautiful!! I’ll pray for a fast healing!!! 💜💜
I love your hair!! What color is that?
Thanks boo 💕 It’s a mix of black, blonde, honey blonde & brown
The UFE didn't work for me either and since I had the procedure June 2020 smh..................I am so sick of having iron infusions of course I was having them prior to my UFE needless to say the procedure was a epic fail so I am 10 months out and here we or BUMMER! So I am going to look into the Myomectomy myself this is ridiculous. Thank you for the video , I am making calls tomorrow I am not plan to get pregnant neither do NOT want more children however I refuse to have a hysterectomy (knock on wood) I want to keep my UTERUS it's like all doctors want to do however I have had family members who have had a hysterectomy and had so many life threathening alignments years later it is crazy. Thank you for the video FYI my NP recommended an ABLATION for me so I have a consult soon 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
You provided great detail. Thank you❤️
You’re welcome 😊
So proud of you. Have a speedy right recovery 🙏. Does having this surgery give you the chance of having babies. Pls, what were the sizes of ur fibroids and their locations?
Hi, I came across your channel while researching UFE can you explain more why a myomectomy was needed afterwards please? From.what I was told UFE is supposed to get rid of more fibroids than the myomectomy (which I had 2 yrs ago)
Yes! I will be making a video on why I needed the myomectomy even after UFE.
You are one very beautiful lady and i wish you a full and speedy recovery. And that hair suits u really well btw.
Hey Vanessa! 💖🙌🏾 So happy for you. I definitely have been following you on this journey since the beginning. My surgery is in a week 🙏🏾. Thanks for sharing!
Sending positive vibes your way! 💕🙌🏾🙏🏾
How did your fibroid surgery go Tiara? How are you feeling now? ❤️🩹
Hey hon, thank you for being so vulnerable and transparent. I had my open myomectomy surgery on Thursday 13 January and it’s now Wednesday 2 February. I feel better, however my incision feels really tight due to the scar tissue which is causing me some discomfort. Also the hair in and near the incision is growing back ( I waxed before the surgery )which is causing irritation to skin near the scar. Did you experience this? Also when I have to pass wind, I get a sharp pain before I have pass wind is this normal? I’ve got my follow up on consultation with my dr which I’m looking forward to.
😯Soooo much has happened. I had been thinking about u. Your journey.
Hi thank you for the video! Just had an open myomectomy 2 weeks ago. I can’t get rid of this painful gas? Did you have any issues with eating post surgery?
How are you feeling now Betty? Hope every day you are getting stronger 💪❤️
OMG. The first time I got up it was extremely hard. No doubt. They helped me stand up and I passed out. Had to try again the next day.🤦🏾♀️
Yes, you feel so weak everything hurts
Aww :/
Did you feel anything during surgery? Is it painful?
Praying for Speedy Recovery 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 . My Capella sis ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
I’m so sorry that the UFE wasn’t enough. Speedy recovery. Also, did they use the Morcellator to cut up the fibroids before removing them?
It’s ok! I’m not sure he used a device to burn one of them off and the others he cut out 😬
@@veryvanessa oof! That sounds rough. Rest easy girl and thank you for the reply! Keeping you in my thoughts.
I’m having my surgery on Tuesday and I am freaking out. I must say watching your videos you have made me relax and feel more confident about it 🤗.
I'm glad my story helped! How did your surgery go? & how are you feeling?
@@veryvanessa surgery went well and recovery is going well. I have my follow up appointment on Monday. Hopefully I can get these staples out 🤞🏾. Stomach still feels and seems really bloated 😔. I’ve been trying to just focus on healing and getting through this. By the way I ordered seamoss from you. Thank you for the nice packaging and quick delivery 🤗
It’ll feel a bit bloated for a few more weeks. By week 4 or 5 you’ll feel a lot better! & thank you for ordering! 💚💚💚
@@veryvanessa okay….Anytime glad to support ❤️
Thank you for posting this Vanessa! I’m glad you’re feeling stronger 💪❤️
I have surgery 2 weeks and feels like I can’t do it but like your t shirt says “it’s always impossible until it’s done”
After they cut you off the pain pump did the pain level go up instantly?
Thanks again for all videos and your bravery. I might bug you with more questions! ❤️
Thanks hun! After I was d/c from the pain pump I switched over to oral pain medicine. I took 1 pill before being d/c from hospital and I was ok. Just make sure you have your pain medicine filled ASAP
@@veryvanessa Well thanks for sharing I learned a lot I have a question I’ve been dying to ask. After you were DC from the pain pump what type of over-the-counter medication did you find effective for pain on the way home? Did you ever use Advil dual action over the counter medication for pain?
I hope you recover swiftly.
Thank you!
How many fibroids did u have?
The doctor removed a total of 5. We thought there were only 3.
Hi! How many fibroids did you have removed?

I can't really advise you on what to do. Every case is different. Discuss all options with your doctor and get a few opinions to be sure before you go through surgery.

Hello. I have multiple fibroids. I have to go through UFE or myomectomy that can result in hysterectomy due to large size of fibroid. I am double minded if to have surgery or UFE? Help plz
It depends on the size & location of your fibroids.
@@veryvanessa biggest one is 99mm
Praying for you to get back to normal life,waiting for your new video why did you choose surgery.
Thanks so much for sharing!! This is helping me know what to prepare for.
The gas is the absolute WORST
Yesss & having a full bladder too. Omggg
@@veryvanessa Yeeeeesssss! Those two things alone trumped the actual procedure itself.
Right!
Hoping for a speedy recovery.
Thank you!
💜💜👑🌹
🙏🙏🙏
OMG feel better soon , so the UFE didnt work ?
Thank you love 💕🙌🏾 It did to an extent but I ended up needing surgery to get rid of everything
I think her UFE still did work ,but in order to be able to have a baby maybe she needed to get all of them out of her uterus...I could be wrong but it maybe seems that way
@@performanceironworks8828 just asking for my sister she has an appointment for UFE this month but they told her if she wants to have kids she needs surgery.... just don't want her to go through UFE and then have surgery, she really wants to have kids
I'm so proud of you
💕💕💕
Are you still eating an alkaline diet?
Right now no, I just had surgery. I’ll be transitioning back after I’m off of pain medicine.
Hope you feel well soon! Blessing's on your recovery!
@@kentagious1246 thank you!
@@veryvanessa that’s very understandable, get well soon peace and blessings to you
Thank you!
So did the UFE not worked in the long run?
I am asking because I had the UFE procedure last Sept of 2020. I still feel and look bloated. 😩
It helped shrink them and got rid of most of the symptoms but in terms of trying to conceive and other things I still had to have surgery. I think UFE is ideal for older women who don’t need to use their uterus anymore & close to menopause.
@@veryvanessa 2 of my friends who had UFE were able to conceive successfully (they're what you would consider older...in mid to late 40"s). I think its a matter of each individual l.
This is true! My aunt was able to conceive after UFE also. It depends on the location and size of the fibroids...
@@ShellfishHavana could you tell me more?? They conceived in their late 40s?
@@yupyup7571 yes, they both conceived in their late 40's. One had twin girls last August...shes 48 and my other friend had a son in November 2020 at the age of 45. So, its possible. All of the babies are healthy and beautiful 😍
What was the size of the fibroid this time? 🤔
There were 5 instead of 3. Various sizes but the largest was around 6cm.
I’m soooo happy I came across your page I’ve been pregnant twice before due to some choices I had to terminate both back in 2015&2016 now I haven’t conceived since then I found out I had 7 fibroids back in January today I did my hsg exam and did my mri on April 1 hopefully fibroids are out next I’m so happy for you and praying for you ur healing process 🙏🏾
Praying for your healing journey to motherhood! Be encouraged 💕🙏🏾
@@veryvanessa thank you so much for creating you’re channel and being brave to share your experience you’re appreciated 🙏🏾
Tell me which part of the world u are in i will personally travel there and bring u some soup.
Praying for you boo 🙏🏽
Thanks love 💕
