Hello there! 👋 My name is Berylanne, but feel free to call me Anne for short! I've been joyfully married to my loving husband, Matthew, since October 2020. And yes...we married 4 months later after meeting! Together we live in a little small town in Northern Illinois. I hope my channel brings you lots of inspiration, comfort and enjoyment. I'd love for you to come along on my journey of being a wife and homemaker too! :)
A little about me: I enjoy baking, DIY and nature. In my past I formerly pursued feminist ways, until I discovered God's ways which completely helped me get on my new path! I give all thanks to Christ who transformed my life for the better through Salvation. I share more of how I came to know God fully in the playlist titled "The Good News". 🙏
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for subscribing! ❤

I had my surgery Jan 9, 2024, they removed 13 from me and the biggest size of it is 18cm, am 30 years of age and it's my 3years of wedding anniversary but no kids because of Fibroid. My PCV was 38 so wasn't giving blood. I was unconscious because of of the Anastasia but was revived thereafter and was discharged 4 days later because of pain. It's my 3rd week of recovery and God has been faithful. Is good to encourage others with your experience inorder to relieve them of fear, A woman besides my Hospital bed told me she ran away for 2years when she was told she will undergo surgery to remove Fibroid, it was when its becoming bigger and her stomach keeps increasing in size that makes hee come back for the surgery and as at that time she was talking to me, she came with her Son to the Hospital for check up. To anyone reading this, let's face our fear and so that we can laugh last
Plz share your recovery story with me.. what can you do like diet, exercise etc.. I did my surgery on 24 Feb 2024 that's why I want advice.
Thanks
Am inspired ✨️
I am on my way to week 6. I had 10 fibroids removed ranging in size from 7 cm, 6 cm, 5 cm and one of them was necrotic and hemorrhagic. My ob cleared me and said only restriction is not to get pregnant for 3 months. I had a miscarriage in October and I hope 🤞 I can have a 🌈 rainbow baby soon
Wow! That’s great you don’t have to weight long at all! I’m only having 1 9cm maybe the second 4cm don’t know if they will take that but I have to wait 6months to a year possible before transfer 😢 mine aren’t even in the uterine cavity so I do have to do open surgery that could be why. Good lock to you hope your Rainbow comes soon
@@kuroe-chan5190 thank you it’s been 9 months since surgery and my high risk ob said to wait at least 9 months before getting pregnant because of all the fibroids I had removed
I had my myomectomy on Thursday. They removed over 60 fibroids, it was scary and unbelievable..My OBGYNA was shocked thatbi had so many, she said they stop counting after 60 because they were confused. I had to to see the picture for myself to come to face the reality.Anyhow, i thank God that he has helped me throughout the surgery. I am at home now recovering.
Oh my! Hoping for a blessed, healthy recovery 🙏 Thanks for sharing.
Mine was on April 5 and they removed 31 with the largest the size of a softball. I hate that this is the community we're all in but I'm glad they are gone. Fingers crossed to all of us that they don't come back
@@jasminemartin03 They can't come back if all was removed
Thank you for doing this very informative video. I just had a 3rd myomectomy surgery. You just learn new things everytime. Taking ALL the new tips that can be helpful. Thank you 🎉🎉
Thank you for sharing. My open abdominal approach was 12 days ago. I’ve had a different experience from yours and was in the ER 2 days after coming home because the pain medicine made me so sick. Thankfully I have been able to stop them and my appetite is there. I feel you on the food aversion. Hope you’re doing well and wishing all who have this a speedy and healthy recovery.
I can’t imagine what you were going through and I hope you’re doing better and may God bless you with good health and healing. 😊
Thanks so much! 😘 I'm happy it went well ❤
Had mine last week and posted about it also❤Thanks for sharing
This is such a great video. You have such a great personality and you were very informative!❤
Aw thanks! I appreciate you watching! 😊
This video is so helpful. I just had my surgery on Friday and you are on point with these symptoms
Aw, I hope you recover well! 🙏 You'll be relieved when it's all over. Thanks for watching! ❤
Thank you for this video!
Aw you're welcome! 😊
Wow it’s amazing to see all these people. I had my surgery last Tuesday. I’m recovering and I am able to walk around. I can’t drive yet or exercise.
I hope you recover well! I wasn't able to drive or use stairs for 2 weeks. 🙈 Blessings! 🙏
I had an open myomectomy 27th of Dec 2023. Had 14 Fibroids removed. Its been a roller coster since then. I lost a lot of blood, about 1.5 litres during the surgery, and i had to have two pints of blood tranfused a day post op. I also developed post operative Ileus after the surgery and had to have an NG tube placed to drain my tummy. Was discharged on the 31st of Dec but got readmitted Jan 2nd for severe chest infection. Wheeww!
Home now and today is the first day of the third week of recovery. I can finally say im beggining to feel a little bit like my old self. Everything you said in your video are so true though. Im just glad that my op site isnt that bad and is quite manageable. Do I regret having the myomectomy? No! Never. As my body feels better. Its unfortunate i had those complications but I wish anyone who has a myomectomy planned the very best of luck in their procedure.
Aww, I truly hope you continue recovering well! May things get better soon! 🙏 Thanks so much for sharing ❤️
Man that gas was no joke. And the pain. I just watched this and I’m at 6weeks. All of this is very true.
Yes thanks for sharing ❤
You're welcome! 😘
Thank you for spelling out post-op like this. ❤
I have a myomectomy in July and I put it off for 3 years. This is helping put my mind at ease. 🙏
Great video, thank for tips, I'm on day 10 post op, myomectomy. I'm a little sore, but not in pain. I think the surgery wasn't as painful for me because my cycles were very painful with fibriods, I guess I became numb to intense pain,😢but I am glad you have recovered and wish you and your Hubby well❤
Good to hear your recovery is going well! Thanks for watching! ❤️ God bless 🙏
I just had my robotic myomectomy surgery yesterday!!!! Looking forward to healing and conceiving! 🥰❤️🥳🎉
Wishing you a healthy recovery! 🙏❤️
Hi, if you dont mine sharing how long it took you to recover? I had it and week 6 still having pain and some bleeding
I really appreciate this video! I have my surgery in a week and you gave wonderful tips!
I hope your surgery goes well! God Bless! 🙏 Thanks for watching 😊
Thank you for the prayers!
I had my surgery 3 days ago and I got everything you suggested! I included a electric heating pad which was wonderful! Like you said the gas was no joke 😖 I would say it was the worst pain of all. My doctor gave me a prescription version of miralax and that helped really well for passing stool. In the hospital they gave me Dilaudid for painwhich had me out of it, my family apparently had funny videos of me 😅Again, I really appreciate this video because it helped me be very well prepared. One thing I may add for advice to anyone having this procedure is if you have love ones that can help let them! The more the merry. I had wonderful team of family and friends that have been so supportive. It makes the transition to healing so much better. Thank you so much!
I'm so glad this was helpful! I hope you continue to recover well! Blessings! 🙏🥰
Very helpful thanks
I had an open myomectomy 1 week ago. 31 fibroids were removed. Stull healing.
Oh my! I hope you recover well! Take care! 🙏🙏❤️
I had my miomectomy yesterday, they removed a 5 cms fibroid. The pain is minimal, I was able to walk the same day. I was able to get out of bed by pushing myself against a shelf next to my bed. My prescriptions were Gabepentin 300 mg, Oxicodone 5 mg, ibuprufen 500 mg cocusade sodium 50 mg, simethicone 250. The last two are a stool softener and gas reliever.
Get well ..
Thank you for sharing
Aw, you're welcome! ❤️
I have 3months to have my surgery, I'm scared and I don't know what to do,have been praying but ur videos are helping me,God bless you
Aw I'm glad it's helpful to you! I hope your surgery goes well. God bless, take care! ❤️🙏
Hey Josephine just be strong I had mine 4 weeks ago and recovering well
I had my surgery (very first ever) Dec 21, 2023. It was a robotic myomectomy. It went great. I was walking around the 2nd day. I stayed over night the day of the surgery. My appetite has been the same. I was using the bathroom on my own the second day. My pain tolerance is also very high. But that don't mean it's been easy. It hurt like crazy to get up out of the bed the first 4 days after. The gas pain is definitely painful and I even feel as if I had more gas since the surgery. When my bladder fills up it hurts as well (highly recommend going to pee before it fills all the way up). I have also found it more helpful to sleep on my couch instead of the bed. Please rest, rest, rest and don't push too hard to get back to your routine lifestyle. This concept is the hardest for me cause I'm a loving teacher and intense power lifter. I trust the process though. Thank you so much for this video. The comments along with your post helps me to see I'm on the right path of healing.❤
Thanks for sharing your experience! 😊🙏
My open myomectomy /exploratory/polyp removal coming up in one month. Removing a 9cm on top of uterus. I also have a 4cm near cervix neither I. Cavity but causing pain and other issues with tubes we are also preparing for IVF journey and need clear start. Thank you for sharing!
Hoping you're surgery goes well! God bless! 🙏❤️
The gas pains hurt for sure but I didn’t have any issues with bowel movements thank god. I did eat alot of healthy soups with veggies and fresh fish and fruits tea and water no stool softeners so hopefully that helps someone. I also never had issues with BM before surgery so maybe that’s why.
Thanks for sharing! 😊
Had mine last month ; my immune system was too low and it actually triggered Herpez. This is my fifth weeks now, still feeling a lilttle bit of pain whenever I sneeze or cough.
Its been 2.5 weeks since my surgery and i dont feel my lower belly it feels numb. Also i feel weird tingling going around in my abdomen. I had 7 fibroids ranging from 1cm to 37cm . thank God i got rid of the huge fibroids.
I also have become diabetic 😔
Take care, God bless 🙏
Feel better
Thank you! ❤
@@TheHelpmeetJourney hello thank you for the video i had surgery 2 weeks ago and now im taking antibiotics bc of an infection in my belly button😢 Do you think I should take the 3 months of medical leave that my job is suggesting? bc i work in a grocery store lifting heavy boxes and pushing and pulling pallets
Mines is scheduled August 29th 2024
I am experiencing urine urgency and if I am not fast to get to the toilet it comes out. I had a myomectomy and a hysteroscopy for fibroids. Does anyone else experienced this?
Had surgery Nov 1,2023 remove 12 fibroid, am heading in my 2nd week am walking around not much pain, no bowl movement issues because my diet is strictly vegetarian, however the gas pain is very painful I must say.
Hey lm on the 3rd day, how was your vagin bleeding?
The gas pains 😢 made me to cried like a baby and the pains has not fully clear
I'm awaiting my myectomy for a 15cm fibroid. They think it will be in September, so next month. I've been taking the medicine Ryeqo for a bit more than a month because it's supposed to shrink the fibroid or at least keep it from growing more. It also pauses or reduces periods. It has the same menopausal effect that I feel hotter than usual and am more likely to feel depressed or anxious. But the symptoms did stabilize after some days. And indeed I no longer have heavy periods with blood clots.
The thing that stands out for me in my fibroid experience is that the doctors are very worried and told me many times that there's a big risk that I will lose my uterus. I actually am quite calm about the surgery in general, but them constantly repeating that I might lose my uterus is not helping me enter the surgery with a peaceful mind and heart. I'm also struggling to understand why they keep telling me the risk is so high because I've watched so many myectomy videos with positive outcomes by now that I'm wondering if the risk is really as high as they're saying.
Anyway, I'm leaving it in the hands of God and know that I will keep my uterus if it's His will, no matter what the doctors are saying. Thanks for sharing your experience! God bless :)
Hi! Thanks so much for sharing! ❤️ Ryeqo sounds similar to Lupron. I was given Lupron after my surgery and a few weeks later I experienced menopausal symptoms and severe hot flashes. My cycles stopped. I was told it will help reduce any new fibroids too. I have a recent video about my experience with Lupron (the link is below if you're interested!) It wore off 6 months later then my cycles returned.
The doctors may just be warning you of the risk! I was extremely nervous about the risk and everything turned out fine. I fell pregnant 9 months after surgery! Everyone's body is different though. Your fibroid sounds much bigger, you may need more time to heal (if you are planning to become pregnant in the future). 👍
The medical field can be like that! In my situation the surgery was worth it! 👍
May God bless you on your journey and that everything turns out well! 🙏 let me know if you have any other questions. Bestwishes! 😊

Thanks so much for your reply! I'll check out the video on Lupron. I was quite skeptical about Ryeqo at first, but it's actually been a blessing to not be having my heavy periods. I had severe anemia and the periods were also keeping me from sleeping and, generally, living.
It's amazing to see your story and that you were able to get pregnant. God is good! :) I trust He also has great things in store for us and I know we don't need to be afraid about the surgery.
Right, I realized I wrote the size of the fibroid in centimeters. It's comparable to being 18 weeks pregnant. At the moment my uterus reaches to about my belly button, a bit lower. It's big, though I've definitely seen bigger.
Anyway, thanks for your encouragement! :)@@TheHelpmeetJourney
Oh my! I hope everything goes well with you! God's timing is perfect. 😊 Maybe send me an update if you decide to go through with the surgery. Take care! ❤️
@@TheHelpmeetJourney Thanks! I'll update you afterward (I hope I remember! ☺️)
Amen! Keep the faith. I’m also in the same situation getting the surgery. I just have to schedule a date. My prayers go out to you in this time. God is in control. You are going to be fine. You have the right mindset. God bless you hun.🙏🏾❤️🩹💗
Hi! I‘ll just ask again based on your experience, when the numb feeling in your lower abdomen totally lost? Thank you for your response.☺️
Hi! I had lots of soreness, but not so much numbness. I didn't have much numb feeling. Hope this answers your question! Thanks for asking! 😊
What to do with gas in my abdomen? I still feel like bloated. I stop taking my pain reliever oxycodone after 4 days because they made me so drowsy and i got some hives and today is my 9 days after a laparascopic myoctomy.
I had Lupron before my surgery I hope I don’t have to do it after.
I had surgery 1/31/22 they didn’t give me lupron and I’m glad once they give you a shot of anything it’s not like a pill where you can just stop it you have to wait until it’s over …. Tbh recovery was easy/ good but very rough at the same time it’s a true mental battle the gas is terrible I’m at the 6 wk mark and still have very bad gas only ginger ale and charcoal pills helped ,the 1st 2wks you’re gonna need help with everything …. I also had a walker and thought I was the only person who needed one lol
It feels like I been waiting FOREVER for this Lupron depot to leave my system! 😅 Worst shot/medicine I've ever taken. I'm glad your recovery went well! 🙏 Good to hear! I kept my walker for future usage like if I become pregnant haha. Thanks for watching! ❤
How many months did it take u before u had set after there surgery
I had my surgery on June 3 2024 it wasn’t that bad
They found 2 fibroids
I on my 4th week post surgery. I am just wandering why my OB did not prescribe neither contraceptive pills nor lupron to me. I am still feeling the heaviness on my lower abdomen. I hope I will be completely back to normal. Also my Doctor advised me to not get pregnant in 2 to 3 years. She said because my uterus was a bit damaged becaus of the 10cm fibroid.
Hopefully you will heal soon! 🙏 It took about 2-3 weeks for the soreness to stop for me. Then after 6 weeks I was completely pain free. You may not had need Lupron...? Lupron has very harsh side effects! It takes a long time to wear off. 😱 I have a newer video about experiencing Lupron... if you'd like to see it I can send the link in the next comment. 😊 I hope you feel better soon! God bless! 😘
I did my surgery 4years ago and the fibroids came back. then I tried the natural way to shrunk them through Dr Aluda remedies on RUclips, and to my greatest surprise, I'm fibroids free now.I highly recommend him and a trial will convince you.**
My surgery is June 19th. I'm scared and worried.
I hope everything goes well! Wishing you a safe, healthy procedure. Take care! 🙏❤️
How long do you have to be on Lupron for? Do they tell you to wait a while before trying to have kids?
I've been on the Lupron shot since the surgery day in October. I got the 3 month dosage shot. It's been almost 5 months, it hasn't left my system yet. 😱 It's awful! It puts you into menopausal symptoms like really bad hot flashes and fatigue. 🥵
As for trying TTC, yes we were told to wait 6 months for safety by my doctor. We plan on TTC again after the Lupron wears off and my system is back in order. I plan on making a 6 months update video around in May.... feel free to check it out at that time! Hope this helps! 🙏❤
Am having mine next month am very nervous, and shaking
Me as well …
Hi Sisi, we're did you had your sergerie, I means which hospital please thank you.
I had my surgery done at a local hospital in my area. 👍
Please someone should help me.
Today mark me 3 weeks of surgery and my lower abdomen it's not soft am still feeling is hard.
Is it your experience?
Is it normal?
Hi, yes it is. I had the same concern and my Dr told me its normal
My daughter just informed me that the medication I bought for her from Dr Aluda on RUclips worked that her multiple fibroids has be shrunk and I am so happy for her and I am thankful to Dr Aluda for his help..
Pls can any one suggest me the food chat for The good recovery after open abdominal myommectomy
I just had mine on Monday. Plain yogurt granola blueberries and honey, saltine crackers, water, pedialyte, chicken broth, and frozen fruit to make smoothies for breakfast. This is all I have been eating and is helpful.
I had my surgery 3 weeks ago but mines quite different though cause I had myomectomy, cystectomy and appendicitis removal done at the same time... it hasn't been easy but I can move around now and my appetite is back. Passing out gas and peeing was a struggle. I still feel pains here and there but its bearable
But I don't know if its normal for my stomach area to be hard instead of soft
That's quite a surgery! I hope you heal quickly and healthily! 🙏
@@TheHelpmeetJourney thank you and God bless you
I had surgery June 4 it was painful
Wishing you a speedy, healthy recovery! 🙏
I had mine 11 days ago. Im 31, two days after surgery started pooping every morning buh for the past 4 days av not pooop. Pls can someone talk on this.
Try dates or peppermint tea.
Try laxatives. I got my 3 fibroids gone now after a surgery a week ago. I started to poop after 5 days. Just try to walk 5-10 minutes a day.
Hi! I just want to ask when did you start sleeping on your side?
Thank you so much.
I'm a natural side sleeper so I'm sure I started sleeping on my side a few days after the surgery - if I remember! Thanks for asking! ❤️
Is it ok even if you feel a little bit pain and numbness?
Yes, there will be sore pain and discomfort in the beginning, regardless of which sleep position. If possible, try a position first that doesn't cause any more pain. Be sure to keep up with pain medication too! Hope this helps! 😊
Yeah its help a lot. Thank you so much. ☺️
You're welcome! Best wishes! 🙏
I'm one week post-surgery and am still dealing with extreme pain. I also have not managed to have a bowel movement, just plenty of gas. I'm starting to worry.
Have you spoke with your doctor? I had sore pain for about 2 weeks. It starting dying down afterwards. It was hard to bend over, use stairs and drive. The missing bowel movement sounds a bit familiar, it can happen right after surgery. The surgical process interferes with movement. 😱 I highly recommend talking with your doctor and updating him/her about your current situation! 👍 I hope you feel well soon! 🙏
Thanks for the comforting message. My doctor says it's all still well within time because it was a major surgery. I had 38 large fibroids removed.
Oh my! 😱 That's understandable, healing may vary for each person. Feel better soon! 🙏
I did my February 25th 2024. I'm going through pains and I was asked to do scan and they didn't see anything wrong wrong me, so I was asked to do x-ray again finally the said there is access gas in my stomach and I was given Gaviscorn and other ulcer treatment and it has not fully clear. please someone can help me on what to do to come out of this pains, that am going through.😢😢😢
Please I need the name of the hospital to get rid

Why did you get adult diapers?
It's a recommendation to help during the healing process of the surgery. 👍
How is your belly now? Do you have scar tissue?
I'm not too sure - my scar has healed completely and it's very light, can hardly be seen anymore. I've recently fell pregnant so everything is working well! 👍 Thanks for the question 😊
I had my miomectomy yesterday, they removed a 5 cms fibroid. The pain is minimal, I was able to walk the same day. I was able to get out of bed by pushing myself against a shelf next to my bed.

I also will have Myomectomy surgery on the 19th. I have multiple fibroids, few of them are 9cm
