And I am glad you have your folks there to fuss over you, as you deserve it. It is great that you are off pain meds except for Advil and walking more each day. That's the way you gain strength back and get back to normal. I think of you often and hope you continue to have a smooth recovery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/alaskagirl-how-are-you-doing#post-1667783 Thu, 26 May 2016 21:58:57 +0000 Gail 1667783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you are doing well.

Oh well. The nice thing about regular open laparotomy is that the doc can get a really good look at everything else in there, too. And the scar is really no big deal -- it flattens out eventually. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/alaskagirl-how-are-you-doing#post-1667696 Thu, 26 May 2016 18:47:56 +0000 catgirl 1667696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Az, the doc said if I had done this a year ago the size would be less and it could have been laparoscopic. </p> <p>Thanks again for all the love.

Rest up and you will feel a bit more energetic every day. Great of your parents to help you out. :-)</p> <p>Why did the doctor say you should have had the surgery a year ago? Was it harder to do than they expected? Two hours does seem like a long time for a hysterectomy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/alaskagirl-how-are-you-doing#post-1667189 Wed, 25 May 2016 21:36:07 +0000 Mochi 1667189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very glad to hear you're on the mend, Una!&nbsp;</p> <p>(I was very glad to get heavy-duty pain meds after an injury--not only for the pain, but because they gave insomniac me my first deep sleep in a long time.

I've been posting on my original thread now and then. It's been going really well - my parents are fussing over me and making me eat nutritious things. I was a bit stunned at how exhausted I am. I walk a bit further each day and then require a two hour nap! The pain hasn't been terrible except for the process of getting up and down from bed. I'm off pain meds and on just Advil which is nice. Am reading here but not responding as much because head is foggy. All the advice you gave was invaluable as was the hystersisters site. I'm having fun browsing online and hoping to get back into a style groove once I've got my mojo back. </p> <p>On the medical side, it was the right thing to do. We don't have the pathology report back but my doctor says I should have had the surgery a year ago and that I will feel so much better. I still have a very swollen belly which I guess takes time to go away but just getting some energy back will be a blessing.</p> <p>Thanks for checking in on me! XOXO </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/alaskagirl-how-are-you-doing#post-1667099 Wed, 25 May 2016 18:19:45 +0000 Eliza 1667099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cheering you on.
