- My Fibroid Surgery Story and what the recovery is really like.
I had a large fibroid removed in July 2020 after putting the surgery off for 3 years. I wanted to share what the recovery is really like after I had my fibroid removed. I had an open myomectomy surgery, and it was my FIRST surgery.
** Here is my video about learning I had a fibroid and leading up to the surgery: • Fibroid Surgery Story ...

Thank you SO MUCH for this! I’m making my way to the hospital in 2 hours for the same exact surgery. I haven’t been able to sleep, I’m so nervous. But this video made me feel so much better! I’m glad you’re now doing well
Of course!! I was super nervous about mine too! I’m sooo glad I got it done though. I feel so much better! Good luck
Thank you for making these videos. I'm having an open myomectomy in October and your videos are really helping me to feel a little prepared. Thank you so much. I'm scared but it's good to see people on the other side of it.
Hi 👋 Queen I’ve been living with fibroid & cyst 😰for more than 5years now but I got rid of it naturally after using dromo herbal medicines his RUclips channel 👉 dromocure
Glad to see you doing so well. you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you sooo Much!!
Thank you so much for this very helpful and informative video series!
My wife just had it 2 weeks now! Thank God everything went fine!!!
That’s great!!!!
Thank you for sharing your journey! So much good information here.
Average Adventures with Julie Wilson thank you!!! 💕💕
Glad to see that everything is turning out well. The videos you've recorded about this can help someone else avoid the apprehension *you* had going in.
rickubis hopefully!!
That’s good you have completed the recovery process and even though you cannot do certain things that the doctor tells you is way for you to stay very positive and you can get through this.
Thank you!! I am staying positive
You are recovering fast on the 5th day. That's good
Im just happy that I saw your video, I’m pretty much scared of getting an operation but i felt better after knowing your story…will be getting the surgery after a month hopefully …
Good luck!! I am so glad that i got it done
Glad you are doing good!
Chris Thompson thank you!!
Glad your feeling better and getting stronger. Wow. You totally said somethings I didn't think about like .......better make sure my laundry and grocery shopping is done before I go in. Though it will be a while from now, still nice to have a plan in my head.
It’s best to make sure to have it all done!! It helps
Hi Taniya thank you so much for sharing your fibroid and myomectomy journey. I just had my open myomectomy Wednesday June 22, 2022; my doctor removed 15 fibroids. I'll be going to my 2 week post-op appt. soon; hoping all continues to go well.
Thank you for sharing. So happy to see you recovering!!! I'm sure your cats aren't much help, but they're adorable 😉
Thank you!! They are the best
I have my surgery dec 8 for so far one huge fiberoid. I go from being nervous to being okay mentally. Your video really helped me to kinda relax and just know I’ll have to take it day by day.
Awww, thank you! I was super nervous before too.. but soo glad I did it!!!
Sending you lots of love. Thank you for sharing
I'm having mine next month during quarantine too! I'm 32 and it's also my 1st surgery. I just found out I need this so I'm kind worrying about what the scar looks like and the recovery...I'm usually pretty active. Thanks for posting your experience!
I have the c-section scar on my lower abdomen. I was nervous about that too, but its not bad at all.
Wife had the same surgery. Had a hysterectomy as well. You're a trooper girl! Get well soon!
thank you!! how is she doing now??
Taniya Wright it was a few years ago. She wasn't in as much pain as she was expecting. Moving around was the worst. She's a physical therapist at Methodist so she knew what to expect and how to handle it. Hang in there girl, you'll be good before you know it!!
Glad to see you are feeling better. Surgeries are no joke. Unfortunately I've had 8 so I know the feeling of being laid up. Although my third knee surgery back in 2013 I scheduled it the day before the NFL draft. So I was a happy man. Plus I had baseball, basketball, and hockey on so I was a fixture on the couch lol. Just just keep taking it easy. You will back to yourself before you know it.
Slowly getting back to feeling like myself! 🙌🏼
@@TaniyaWright11 Its a slow process for sure. After a while its like can't I just get up like I use to lol. It makes you appreciate the simple things like getting up and walking without thinking about.
greg schnos same, you don’t realize all the little things you take for granted.. like walking up stairs or getting off the couch
Thanks for sharing your experience... I just had mine removed so I can relate...I only removed the fibroids and there were seven of them...I am recovering very well also and its my 5 day after the surgery..
Awesome!!! I’m sooo glad I got mine out. I’m 4 months post op and feeling great . It gets easier every Week
Thanks for sharing! I had a myomectomy 5 years ago for an intrauterine fibroid that was 7cm. I remember that my surgeon was Ivy League educated, but she was a fairly new surgeon (she'd completed her training in like 2014 or '15, and this was in 2016). I remember that she wanted to send me home with no pain medication! She said, "Oh, the surgery is a breeze... you can be back at work the next day and Tylenol or Motrin will do you just fine!"
Like.... "Girl, WHETTT?"
I get that some people abuse those meds, but Motrin barely helps with menstrual cramps (Tylenol doesn't help at all) and this was a surgery that I had to be put to sleep for. And I remember it was on a Friday, so no offices would be open if I had an issue.
When I woke up?? I was in SO. much. pain. My uterine area was radiating with pain. My sister, whom- thank GOD this was before COVID-19 and she could be there- had to speak for me because I think I was in shock from the pain. 😆 (No, but fr though.) The surgeon begrudgingly gave me a Rx to take home. You would've thought that I'd asked her for a lifetime supply of medicine vs just enough for a weekend. I think she gave me either 8 or 10 pills.
Unfortunately the fibroids are back, and they're bigger, so I have to have this procedure again, albeit with a different surgeon this time. Praying for a much better experience this time, because I'm SUPER nervous after last time.😬🤞🏾
Awww, I am sorry that you had a "rough" time during your first surgery. Fortunately, mine have not come back. I hope they dont, but as you know they can.
Good luck!!!
@@TaniyaWright11 do you eat chicken by any chance? Eggs? I’m just worried about it growing back and trying to figure out why it comes back for some people. Glad to hear you’re doing well and hope you never have to deal with them again.
*am filled with joy and happiness with my family today, because of fibroids my tubes was blocked for 5years after using Dr Omo herbal medicine I was able to shrinking my fibroid naturally, I just give birth to a boy🤱🏿last month here*❤️ Dr Omo herbal medicine work perfectly well he can also help you get rid of Endometriosis, Ovarian Cyst, Pcos,*
I got an open myomectomy 4 days ago. Your videos helped me. I was so anxious leading up to the surgery. I had 26 fibroids removed, only 13 showed up on the ultrasound. I'm still struggling with getting comfortable at night but every day is a bit better.
Can I please ask how you're doing now? I hope you're well. :) I'm getting open myomectomy for many, many fibroids, some large ones, soon, and then I have to move, like, a couple of weeks after. I can pack beforehand, and we're paying for movers, but how long do you think I should wait before I actually do the move? For context, I'm moving a 5hour drive away from where I live now. I'm trying to figure out if I can get the surgery sooner, so it's many more weeks in between the two, but my doctor is so busy. After the move, there's a thousand other conflicts, and I really need this done asap, due to insurance stuff, and some other issues. Please let me know, if you can. Thanks!
@@naylapaschoadelancer4526 I’m doing well. The doc said don’t lift anything heavy for six weeks. As of right now I still get random pain in my abdomen but it’s not severe. I’m still being careful about what pick up because of that. I have no problem doing everyday stuff. If someone else moves the boxes you should be fine as far as unpacking (be very careful ) after a month maybe 3 weeks. It depends on how fast you heal thou.
Just seen your Videos just now, your so Brave girl.. I just found out recently that i had a fibroid too and its 4cm.. i was shocked and scared. Im been searching about healthy diet and watching some story of other womens that had fibroids.. i feel so down right now and my familys are not here with me too.. just waiting for my Gynaecologist and what next step to do and hoping and Praying that it will sorted out soon and do something about my health cause its really feel discomfort. Thank you for sharing your story it helps alot..
Thank you soo much! I was super nervous before my surgery, but very glad I got it done

Awaiting for my insurance to approve the open myomectomy. I have 3 of them that are big. Your videos helped put my mind at ease. Thank you so much for giving me insight on what to expect. 😘😘😘😘
Glad I could help! Good luck with your surgery 💕
@@TaniyaWright11 did the surgery help your cramping?
@@bryttniecavazza5872 I didn’t have bad cramps before surgery.
@@TaniyaWright11 damn. That's my biggest problem. I have debilitating cramps, and that's my main reason for going through with this. I can't live with this anymore 😔
@@bryttniecavazza5872 I was on birth control so that helped me with cramps
I’m nervous and anxious! I’m having this done in 2 weeks! 😬
Good luck!!!!
It's great to hear the surgery was a success and you healed well. I remember when I had inguinal hernia surgery ( relatable but not as serious of a surgery) and then hurricane ike happened and I had no power for 2 weeks. Since I was young at the time, I healed pretty fast and was bouncing off the walls by week 3. I contribute that to having a great surgeon!! I remember being able to walk around and taking pictures of the damage ike caused (of course with family, I would never walk alone after surgery lol)...Then I saved the pictures on MegaUpload. I should have put it on facebook lol.
Oh yeah that pipe down my throat when I woke up from surgery caused me to cough up blood. That was scary lol.
I waited some years before getting my surgery done and the hernia opening grew pretty large. When I woke up they said they were surprised at the size of the hole. Luckily my surgeon had the skills to deal with the surprise. I still don't know what magic he used to get it all done in a 3 inch cut. I wish they would have recorded it.
Being young I didn't know what it was and also knowing my family at the time didn't have money I didn't tell them. I knew it wasn't cancer because when I laid back the intestines retreated back into the abdomen. The only time it was extremely painful is when poop moved through or standing for long periods. (stabbing pain and getting kicked in the nuts)
Ratus wow! You went through a lot
Get well. Take it slow nd easy
Timothy's world thank you!! I am
So happy your doing better... I think this video is great for women that have never had this procedure done... thanks for sharing... Michael Dillon Browning...
Michael Dillon thank you!! I’m feeling better every day!
Thank you so much for sharing. I’m due to be having a myomectomy in 12 days time so really helpful to prepare and know what’s in store. My single fibroid is around 7/8cm so been told there is a slim chance they will do via laparoscopy but preparing for worse case scenario. Hope you are doing well
Yes, I’m doing good now! Good luck with your surgery.
Hi Taniya,
Thank you for sharing your journey. I too have fibroids and want to have kids eventually. I am contemplating getting a myomectomy and have been searching for a great doctor. After watching your videos, I know you were in good hands. Do you mind sharing your doctor's info?
My dr is in houston. It’s dr. Ivonne smith
I’m getting this surgery done at the end of October and I’m super anxious. I feel like it’s just looming over me. This was such a helpful video to watch - thanks so much for sharing the info. My fibroids about the same size as yours (8 cm) and unfortunately it’s still growing so I made the tough decision to have it removed. I’m so nervous but hearing your story has really helped. How are you feeling these days? Notice a difference with it gone?
im soo glad!!! I was super nervous before my surgery, but soo glad i did it. I feel so much better now. It was NOT as bad as i thought it was going to be
Glad you are doing well. What date was your procedure? I had surgery on my right Achilles on 7/8 here at duke. Also been watching tons of Netflix. What’s been your fave shows ?
Rick Vivolo I’ve been watching a ton of random shows. Watching a lot of Seinfeld
Hello 👋 👋 Taniya, Now, I feel your pain, I had a laparotomy Myomectomy, thirty one weeks ago now, and Friday just gone (16/10/2020) I was dancing in my bed a bit, moving my buttock a bit, and I felt minor waves of pain behind the incision, so I would say, take your time, as you probable are aware, as recovery has no time limit.
Also, and more importantly, I am glad you came through the surgery okay, that is fantastic news.
Moreover, support is vital, as I became very depressed and when you noticed your moods are low, seek professional help immediately, as this can aid recovery further, and help you, live a fulfilling life, as well as get back to what you love doing for your life.
Yes!! Sometimes I’ll feel a random tinge of pain. Nothing too bad, but I’ll feel it!
Awww, here is a virtual hug 🤗 🤗 for you, and I wish you all the best with your recovery, as well as health going forward..
@@overfortieshealth2775 same to you!!
@@TaniyaWright11 thank you....
I go in two weeks... I am so so anxious!
I was super nervous before mine, but sooo thankful I did it!!!
Do you have any questions???? I’m 3 months post op!
@@TaniyaWright11 I have so many questions because I live alone and I am sure that I am going to need some help. But how is everything going for you now? Are you able to fully maneuver on your own?
@@joyuncut I’m doing great now. I needed help for the first few weeks , just getting stuff/helping me up stairs
I can relate to your videos so much! Glad I'm not the only one. I am actually near my 3rd week post op with 7 huge fibriods removal (largest one was as big as a grapefruit but ultrasound said it was 7cm!)
Question for you, did you follow up with a physical therapist and has the belly pooch gone down? I'm anxious to start working out but can't yet. I'm wondering if you have any tips on exercises you found beneficial.
No, I didn’t use a physical therapist . I didn’t have a belly pooch either
thank u
Thanks for sharing! My IVF cycle pissed my fibroid off and it turned into the hulk! lol It's 10.1cm now and giving me the blues. I have to get surgery next month and I'm a little nervous not being able to have my husband with me. How was recovery in the hospital?
Tiana Smith I had to be alone for mine... covid. I was only in the hospital for one day then got to go home. It wasn’t too bad. I’m 6 weeks post-op today!
@@TaniyaWright11 Oh nice! Do you feel well enough to go back to work or are you still struggling?
Tiana Smith I’m doing really well!!!
Just watch i have 2 to remove now am feeling nervous😓 watching your video 😁😁
Hey I am 10 days post op and I’m feeling good. I did stay in the hospital 🏥 for one night as well and I had a catheter and then when it came out I walked the hallway. I had a bikini cut as well.
I was on a liquid diet before and while there. I had no visitors as well cause of Covid. I actually had to redo the covid test when I got to the hospital 🏥 because they never received the first one. My throat was scratchy as well the first few days after surgery I know it’s from the breathing tube. Yea I couldn’t fully stand up straight either still can’t really. I do the same step thing as you one at a time. My incision is covered with the steri strips and my dr told me to face away from the shower I just took the shower head off the thing and then rinsed off like that. I blow dry the incision with my hairdryer.
My dr said that was fine. I haven’t seen a picture of my fibroids. I was prescribed ibruprofen 800 and Percocet.
I believe my biggest fibroid was 6cm.
I also had ovarian cysts.
Kristen A I was in liquid diet for a bit in the hospital.. but once I held that down they said I could get solid foods.
The glue stuff on my incision is starting to slowly peel off.
I’m glad your feeling good!!
@@TaniyaWright11 Yea the day before surgery as well I had to be on a liquid diet at 12PM and drink two magnesium citrate. I dont have glue on the incision. i believe its just stitches and its covered with steri strips
Kristen A I had to drink that stuff before too... 😬😬😬
@Kristen A , Glad to hear the recovering stories of all you girls. Hope you are back to normal now. May I know if they remove the ovarian cyst in the same operation too? How was it, do they have to remove the ovaries or just the cyst.
Hey tanya such a postive video I'll have my surgery in January and I'm so scared i have one question is catheter procedure is painful specially is removing it painful? Please reply
hello, i didnt feel it, bc i already the the epidural
Oh wow yeah mine is in a week and some change open myomectomy to remove a 9 cm fibroid sitting on top of my uterus asked me are you planning to go home the same day I was I know I told her please you can keep me two days you can keep me three days something about a hospital to me I’m very strange I love staying in the hospital after my surgery so I’m only had one major surgery. All my other ones have been same day, but my major surgery they kept me 24 hours but if that was not the best sleep, I’ve ever had in my life. I had no pain except soreness. Of course I slept like a baby, so when they were like OK you can go home the next day. I was so bummed. I felt more comfortable in the hospital, but this one is very different for me and the other one is a profit me this is my first open so I would prefer to stay at least 2/9 make sure I pass gas urinate bowel movement make sure my pain is under control because that is what I’m worried about. I don’t like taking heavy heavy payments. I’m just really nervous but my last first big surgery with bariatric surgery laparoscopically, and my recovery one’s ultimately in Breathing so I guess if I can do that I should be able to survive this. Hope you’re doing well and thanks so much for sharing your experience.
Hi Taniya, Hope all is well. I had a question about fibroids. What type of fibroids did you have? Location and size. Just curious because I know that impacts the surgery outcome. Also have things change since your surgery? Take care best of luck 😀
She said one 7cm fibroid but idk where it was located. If you watch previous videos you might find the answer.
How long did it take you to drive? someone said it took them 6 weeks this sounds intense. I am getting this surgery next month and mainly worried about recovery!
I think 2 weeks
Use Agbara herbal powder to completely shrunk your Fibroid, Remember Fibroids are abnormal growths that develop in or on a woman's uterus. Sometimes these tumors become quite large and cause severe abdominal pain and heavy periods, pelvic pain, miscarriages. In other cases, they cause no signs or symptoms at all. The growths are typically benign, or noncancerous.But With Agbara Herbal Medication, This will Be completely cured,,,,Remember surgery does not removed or cured Fibroid,
When did you get your periods back after open myomectomy surgery?
Today is day 4 post myomectomy surgery
how are you feeling?
@@TaniyaWright11 well yesterday I felt horrible...I 🙏 for a better day today... thanks 😊
I hope your recovery is going well. I just got diagnosed. And I'm so so nervous. I yet have to see my OBGYN soon to go over the results. But I'm told I have multiple fibroids in different areas and inside my uterus. Im praying 🙏
@@hlongshlongs8729 I’m doing good. It now one year post-op
What did you have the open procedure and not a non invasive one?
The size and location of my fibroid
Did you experience hair shedding after the procedure?
No I didn’t
did you experience bleeding after the surgery?
Only a tiny bit one day , but that’s it
Hey just wondering if new fibroids have grown since. Thanks!
no, they have not
@Taniya Wright Thank you! I'm starting the process for total hysterectomy (but keeping ovaries). I have several and they keep growing. Thank again!
It was challenging and unbearable because of how critical my health situation was. but I am grateful and happy to have ordered Dr Aluda herbal supplements on RUclips which I used and it shrunk my multiple fibroids🥰🥰
Did you have a kids before you did the surgery??? Because I have the same problem with no kids 😢
no, i did not have kids before
Sorry i only clicked because you are beautiful.
