    Omgggg i’m so glad I found your channel! I am having my hysterectomy in a week. Unfortunately my fibroids are too large for laparoscopic so I’m having the abdominal surgery. Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏

    I have watched so many videos about hysterectomy and yours is the first to mention the insurance aspect of things. I will check with my insurance to see if the 30 day rule applies. Your video was very informative! Thank you!

    I don’t understand why you couldn’t book your surgery more than 30 days out?! I’m having a total hysterectomy in 2 weeks and I was able to booked my surgery 2 months out. Thanks for all the great info!

      Maria, I feel your frustration. Sending positive energy to you 💕. I had episodes of bleeding that wouldn't stop and at the longest lasted a year. My most recent episode was a couple months with major hemorrhaging and pain. I finally said enough, I want a hysterectomy. For years I had been told my insurance wouldn't cover it unless I exhausted every other option. I finally contacted my insurance company directly and found out I could have had the surgery YEARS ago with no prior authorization needed. I'm about a week post surgery now. The surgery itself was so easy. I had a robotic laparoscopic surgery & kept my ovaries. It's such a relief to know I'll never have non-stop severe hemorrhaging again. The only regret is I didn't have it done back in 2013 when my issues started.

      @@jewals-healingrose222 how are you feeling during recovery? It’s a disgrace what the medical industry does to avoid us removing the very organ that causes so much distress to our health. I’m so happy you’ll never bleed again.

      @@Curlyhairalchemist I got a block that made things much easier initially as far as pain, especially since I can't take acetaminophen or ibuprofen. One of the biggest helps that I recommend all the time for anyone getting surgery or to help with pain in general is arnica. Arnica is great with swelling, bruising, and pain!

    I scheduled my November hysterectomy in August, and over the phone. That is only your surgeon/hospital that had a 30-day scheduling policy. Why did you need an MRI? I didn't have that either. I'm 43 and getting a hysterectomy (cervix, uterus, tubes) in a couple weeks.
    I'm not having any blood work pre-surgery either?

      Hello Michelle, I was nervous too. But if you are sick of your fibroids making you feel sick and tired, I know you’ll conquer your fear. I am making part 2 in a few days as I am feeling better during recovery. I hope part 2 gives you reassurance for your next steps.

    You don't "have to" get a cervical biopsy to get a hysterectomy? I didn't (year 2023). What is wrong with these doctors of yours?

    Hello Meg, I really hope that everything goes well for you and whatever you need, I am at your disposal, if you need me to donate blood for your surgery, I will gladly do it

      Hello Marlon thank you for your support. If you’d like to donate blood you’d want to know your blood type as not everyone is compatible with certain blood types.
