  • What was my recovery time like after my fibroid removal surgery. I had an open myomectomy in July of 2020. This was my FIRST surgery, so I really didn't know what to expect before, during and after the surgery. On top of the fibroid removal surgery being my first procedure, I got it done during the COVID-19 pandemic... so there were a lot of other precautions I had to deal with.

    Update: I had the procedure done as scheduled at Lenox hospital in NYC. There were 3 big ones that they saw on the ultrasound. The procedure was supposed to be 2 hours long. Surprise surprise they removed 38 fibroids and the procedure was 6.5 hours. 4 days in the hospital, 2 blood transfusions and 2 magnesium infusion I am now home resting, eating and juicing waddling around the apartment feeling like a new person. I have a notebook to log my pain meds alternating every six hours between Motrin and Tylenol. I’m so grateful for your video. It helped me both before and after my procedure.🌹🌹🌹

I’ve been out the house (walked around the block) a total of 3 days to get fresh air. I switched organic mostly diet. I drink only organic juice, lots of water. No chicken only fish, liver and red meat for my protein to tend to my severe anemic issue pre-op and blood transfusions post-op. I dear to say I haven’t felt this healthy in years🤗

    Drive through surgeries. Gotta love it! I had my myomectomy and I was in the hospital for two nights and 2 nights after my hysterectomy. I don’t go home after my abdominal surgeries because I’m high risk. I had 7 fibroids removed and my surgery took about 4 hours which was 3 hours longer than expected. They expected 3 fibroids and found 7 inside and out of my uterus and a spot of endometriosis. The surgery was successful until the fibroids returned and I have iron deficiency anemia so I opted for the hysterectomy since I was already now 40 years old and having children could end up killing me and I was ok with it. My health is way worse now (not related to any GYN issues) and I can’t work any longer because the common cold can be life threatening for me due to my CVID (no not COVID-19) so I’m high risk for infections and in fact I’m battling my 3rd pneumonia in 6 months and probably my 15th since 2016. Just finished yet another round of IV antibiotics and steroids but my pulmonologist let me do them outpatient instead of being hospitalized yet again. The first of 3 I had to be admitted even after 12 days of oral and 2 different IV antibiotics and steroids because I got much worse. Not much I can do about it and some years I’ve had some longer hospital stays because of all of this so the last thing I need is major bleeding due to fibroids so I had the hysterectomy. I hav had many surgeries especially since 2016 with m having 4 surgeries and procedures last year requiring general and twilight anesthesia. I now just guess how long I last before I’m knocked out. With my major surgeries I’ve always been given anesthesia in pre op so I was out before I hit the OR doors. I’m getting a bronchoscope again in a few weeks (last one was in July of last year). That one I remember being on the OR table and I remember them extubating me (yeah. Thanks but next time take the tube out before waking me plz).
    The myomectomy was very well worth it especially if you want kids and if you have health issues like I have it may be worth it to have more of a quality of life. I don’t regret not having kids. It’s my choice and I’m happy.

    Im wondering because I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to take off 6 weeks, do you think teleworking (typing, zoom calls) would be okay by week 3? Or do you think postponing until I’m able to take off completely to able to take off 6-8 weeks would be best?

      It’s all depends on how well you recover, you should start feeling better by 3-4 weeks.. just depends on your healing

    Today is Sunday 16th January and I had my open myomectomy surgery on Thursday 13th. Ladies, it’s not easy at all. But I’m trying to focus on the positive, no longer dealing with back pain, long and painful periods, feeling constantly fatigued and continuous abdominal pain. Im trying so hard to be strong and I feel myself wanting to cry due to be so emotionally drained and the physical pain. Please tell me, 1) it gets better and 2) having a c-section isn’t this bad?
    The scar where my drain was hurts, I have feel a stabbing pain and I wish it will heal soon. Also going to toilet to wee is so painful, like a heavy force is on my bladder- at time I wet myself before I make it to the toilet because of the pain.
    Update: I’m feeling a lot better, however my incision feels really tight due to the scar tissue also because the hair is growing it’s making the incision even more irritable. Did you wear body griddle? And how did you manage the scar, oil, scaraway?

Just hold your stomach area and don't force it and definitely take the stool softener if you're going days with any bowel movement. It's been a month now and I still dont have regular bowel movement but I can poop now not having to worry about bursting stitches.

They got me out the next morning. So I too slept one night in the hospital. Last night after taking ibuprofen the first pill my stomach got upset and blood pressure went up. So they took me to the emergency room they checked me out and gave me few pain killers in the veins. Now I’m not taking any pain killers so not sure what to do since my stomach is so upset and I’m scared to vomit

      That's what I had and decided to treat with Tranexamic Acid tablets to slow my menstrual cycle. Did that for a year then suddenly my fibroids grew and the bleeding got heavier. Last month I bled for 21 days! Now I have a transfusion scheduled and a consultation for surgery.
