    Hello everyone. I had my surgery on July 5th and everything went great. I had to spend one night in the hospital and it was the best sleep I’ve had in three years.
    My recovery at home has been going great EXCEPT for when I overdue it. I’ve been cooking, washing dishes and a few other things that I probably shouldn’t do. I’m a bit stubborn with major OCD so me sitting still is a challenge. I have no regrets about this surgery. I am 5 days post op. Best advice, listen to your body and chill out when your body tells you, your overdoing it. Stay blessed everyone

    Lisa, thank you SO much for posting your pre and post op experiences. I had a total hysterectomy two days ago, but my uterus was large, so I had an abdominal removal. No one on my medical team had mentioned belly bands, grabber sticks, or the various sundries that you had recommended. After watching your videos, I felt much more prepared. Your positive outlook and sense of humor also gave me a much different perspective on recovery. I am glad that you are doing well. I am too! Thank you again. 🤩

    I don't understand why anyone would have any issue with your choice. While the ovaries do have a job and I know I wish I could have kept mine, once a woman us done with having children, or having made a definitive choice to not have children, the uterus doesn't have much purpose. It can just cause discomfort with menstruation issues and hang out, possibly being a risk for uterine cancer. If that can be avoided and quality of life improved, that is just benefit with no negative at all.

    • @salvolondon
      @salvolondon Год назад +2

      It's actually a pretty mysogibistic way of thinking , Like women have to be like men ,only women have the menstrual cycle ,men don't . And in order to live in this patriarcal world women have to be like men .... Luckily most women don't feel like you , luckily there are women who are proud of being intact adult human females .

    • @moviemarket

    Husband has a cold and it makes two at slow pace. Foryunate to have options for seperate sleep space.
    spotting is scary. staying ontop of pain with Tylenol/Ibuprophen alternate schedule. The 3hr schedule with few hrs of sleep between.

    Thank you for sharing all of this information. I am 36 and I have 2 kids who are 13 and 10. I have had many problems with my periods since I was a young teen. (As well as 2 lost pregnancies) I was diagnosed with adenomyosis when my son (10) was about 4-5. I was on birth control for hormone and period problems since I was a teenager. 2 1/2 years ago I had to have an emergency D&C after a non-viable pregnancy and I was diagnosed with epilepsy (my brother has epilepsy as well) so I had to stop taking birth control because it would make my seizure medication not work. This was about 7-8 months ago. When I stopped it, my adenomyosis has gotten so bad. The pain, my periods have gotten worse, my bleeding is worse or not bleeding when I should etc. I am considering getting a partial hysterectomy to fix the adenomyosis, as well as prevent pregnancy as well because I cannot take my medication during pregnancy, and also another pregnancy could be dangerous. I have been scared of getting surgery, but after hearing your recovery information I am much less nervous and ready to have better quality of life. Thank you again, this has really helped me.

I watched it as soon as I got my diagnosis (no cancer at biopsy, but being extra cautious and doing a frozen section during surgery just in case they have to pull lymph nodes so that I don't have the surgery twice) a few weeks ago, and watching through again as we're finally in our "boottheute" stage with the initial appointment, and it's helping relieve a little of the anxiety. I know everyone's experience is different, and I may not have your experience, but it's been weirdly comforting. Thanks, again, for sharing your experience.

    Hi, thanks for sharing your journey. I’m glad your recovering well!! 🥰 I’m post op day 3.
    Question, did you ever get front ribcage pain so bad you can’t take a deep breathe. My ribs are extremely sore. None of my pain meds are giving me relief. My lower stomach feels fine.
    When I try and fall asleep my body jumps and I wake up. I have both my ovaries but woke up drenched is sweat!
    I hope this gas pain goes away soon. If it wasn’t for that I’d be fine!

    If I work from home and at the desk all day, do you think it would be feasible to contact to work after two weeks? Based on your experience of course.

    im having partial hysto. only removing uterus and tubes. i cant wait. im also ftm trans so this surgery is long overdue. im opting for partial just cause its a faster recovery time and am low risk of cervical cancer. but no more uterus is gonna be great. dont know how my post op pain will be like but heres hoping its easier than my top surgery

    I had a D&C at a surgery center instead of a hospital and the biggest difference they explained to me is that they don’t have blood on site so if I needed a transfusion, I would urgently be taken to the closest hospital. That was fine for the D&C but my hysterectomy will be done on the main hospital campus because the surgery is being done robotically and it’s only available to the 42 operating rooms on the 1st floor of the main hospital. I just want to get it done so I can focus on recovering!

    I followed your recovery I think was for the first month? LOL I had my laparoscopic hysterectomy on November 15th. The first day was rough lol now I'm on day 6 of recovery maybe day 5 LOL and I'm starting to have stabbing pains where I think my cuff is but it feels almost like the surface of the skin? And the inside? Is this normal? I have four incisions which are healing very well.

    Thank you so much for making this video. My friend is having this next week and we had no sense that she would be able to even sit up and talk this much at 4DPO. We've been planning for her to, at most, be able to get herself to the bathroom with a walker but mostly be in bed and to need 24 hour a day care for at least 2 weeks so it's amazing to see that you did so well. Now going to watch the other videos because it looks like the current plan of her being mostly on the couch for 8-12 weeks may be too conservative. She is a lot older than you so we don’t expect she will ever be able to get back to where she was before the surgery in terms of strength and stamina but this is making me think that she may be able to recover a little better than we thought, so thank you so much!

    Thank you for your videos, I’m due to have this procedure on the 14 October, im not gonna lie, I’m shit scared 😟 and nervous, I’ve had my children I’m well past child baring days. My son will be 16 in a few months. I had painful excruciating pain during my periods pain that the 6 months wouldn’t subside 😢 found I have fibroids, endo and pcos… in my opinion the uterus is a baby factory, and if you have had your kids or don’t want kids why go through the constant pain every month??? I don’t understand.. another question I have, what is your mental state like? What’s the bleeding like and when does it slow down? And when can you have s$x ? Lol I don’t think you’ve talked about that it might be a TMI thing but just curious.. I’m having abdominal hysterectomy leaving ovaries in. I had a tummy tuck 2 years back so laparoscopic is a no go, and I have a bulky uterus due to the fibroids one being bigger than a tennis ball. So they will cut me along my incision when I had 2 c sections and tummy tuck.. has anyone had this experience after tummy tuck?

    Hello I'm day 4 post op from hysterectomy your video is great. It has been a journey for me since surgery on the 28th I'm getting through it with lots of boring laying around lol but the boring laying around is so worth it. I had my fibroid for 3 years now and it's been hell been trying to have my surgery for the last 3 years but insurance just finally excepted my insurance. I did also feel like this was the life I was going have to live but the second I was approved for surgery I finally felt some relief. I can't wait to get my old life back and see what kinda journey I now can take without having to worry am I going to bleed do I have to ware a tampon do I have to ware a pad just incase I bleed ;)

    Glad you're doing relatively well, thank you for letting us know, been thinking about you. I had a lapoorscopic tubal ligation when I was 35, and abdominal hernia surgery a few years later (which I did too much, and it re-tore, so have been living with it for years, which is depressing) but still have no support, I do NOT want to re-do), with no help or support, and it was ROUGH - I slept on the the couch after the hernia surgery just so I'd have something to grab on to to change positions, or get up - which took like 5 minutes - SO painful!! So glad you guys have each other, for physical, and emotional support - you are SUCH a team, and it' wonderful to see, and hear. Your Doc also sounds wonderful, approachable, and right on top of things - that's awesome, and DEFINITELY helps recovery, for sure! I used Palmer's Coca Butter on several surgery incisions and other scars over the years (AFTER medical clearance, of course!) and it really helped ease the pain, itching, and helped fade the scars. Please continue to listen your body, and do as well as you have been. You are thought of, and cared about, even by those of us who have never met you. Never doubt that! Socially distanced hugs from New Jersey.
    I was bleeding VERY heavily several times when I had to have D&C's for same, or even the uterine ablation, and I will agree - it does feel VERY weird (and for me - almost shameful - but I KNOW that's ME, and I'm weird!), and they made me take off my own pads I wore, and use ones they gave me (to be more sterile, I was told), but hat was weird, because they had to adhesive, or wings - just kin of "sat there". But the nurses were VERY comforting, and made me feel better about "the mess" of it all. Guess they truly HAVE seen worse!

    Ladies who lived this journey. What check-up (what week) do they do an internal exam (vs. just external)? I am due for my first exam at 3.5 weeks post op so trying to mentally prepare for what is to come. From what I read I think they don't do internal until the 6-week checkup, but asking if anyone got the internal part sooner....thx

    • @LisaRowberry
      @LisaRowberry  6 месяцев назад +1

      Mine was at 6 weeks.
      I would say take some over the counter medicine like Tylenol or ibuprofen just in case you are tender when they check.
      Are you sure it will be internal and not just a check up of your incisions?

    • @KS-op5hb
