Poor you. I had to have a hysterectomy 9 years ago (at least I had 1 child!). I understand the scary major surgery thing. Do take it easy and don’t rush back to work. Have a phased return to as you will be tired easily. I hope your recovery isn’t to bad.
@@PetitePrimary yes we had so many staff members off last week. Definitely want to move down the school maybe to year 4 but not sure what the school will decide
My daughter was having terrible periods. She saw a gynecologist during covid. Had a covid test. Negative. Was operated not even a week later. A hysterectomy. Cut from side to side. Came home 2 days later. Also had to inject for 5 days. Never took any pain meds. Drove after 4 weeks and was back at work. Hope you get well soon.
It baffles me how a person can just get a hysterectomy within a week. Your daughter is so lucky. I complained to my family GP for years and finally saw a gyno in 2020 after being on a waiting list for 4 years. I had exploration surgery to find out what was wrong in 2021. That surgery was supposed to be 30 minutes but it ended up being 4.5 hours because they discovered I had severe endometriosis, adhesions, uterine fibroids, endometrial polyps and an ovarian cyst that ruptured during surgery. I was also diagnosed with adenomyosis and PCOS. They STILL refused to do a hysterectomy because I was 30 and haven’t had children. I was born disabled, have multiple disabilities and chronic health issues. I don’t think it would be right for me to have children even if I wanted them, but I don’t want kids! I am suffering for no reason and being treated like I am some human incubator. Last year I was diagnosed with cancer and during a whole body scan to check for cancer spread, they discovered 10+ tumours in my liver. Turns out the continuous use of the pill without breaks caused my liver issues. Now I cannot use any of the hormone methods, have become severely anaemic (losing half a litre of blood every period, twice a month) and have no other choice but to have a hysterectomy. Sometimes I bleed for up to 8 months non-stop. Due to my disabilities, the only exercise that I can do is hydrotherapy in the pool. Now I can’t even do that…. I am bleeding more often than I am not. I am finally putting my foot down and literally going to BEG for a hysterectomy. Sorry for the long rant, I have just been through a lot of unnecessary suffering just because I am a woman.
I'm so sorry to hear your tough health journey 😞 I have no words of comfort as I can't imagine how awful your experience and continuous experience is, but I can offer you big hugs x
Hope you feel better soon!
Thank you so much, hope you're well and happy new year 🎊 x
I hope you are recovering well. Surgery is hard on the body, be patient with yourself as you recuperate.
Thank you! I'm definitely accepting that this will be a long journey of recovery x
Hope everything is okay ♥️
I'm recovering well, thank you for checking in 😘

Thank you, I lost an ovary too yesterday, they couldn't avoid it. It's the recovery I'm scared about, so I'm just taking it easy x

A week? That's insane, especially during COVID. Pleased to hear she got the care she needed though. How is she now?
