I’m recovering from radical hysterectomy and lymph node removal and would like to talk to any others who have been through the same. I do find I’m having sharpe pains and need reassurance. Please, anyone else who has come through it or in the same position, would love to connect. X

    Hi Angie. I had radical hysterectomy in March last year, A large tumour removed that had cancer in small area enclosed. I just wanted to let you know that it's so important not to do too much and follow the advice given by the health team ..... I went straight into menopause and had a huge benefit having auricular acupuncture which helped so much. Pains are normal as everything is knitting back together however I had no lymp nodes removed. I wish you a speedy recovery . Karen x

    Hi Kobybear. 

    I had a radical hysterectomy about 2.5 months ago now stage 1b1.  I had some aches and pains in my legs too after lymph nodes removed. I had keyhole and recovered very quickly. My vagina was swollen at 1st and a bit numb on left side which still is now. My doc reckons I will miss menapause and so far I’m fine. I  don’t have to have any further treatment and I feel good and back working. If you have any concerns I’m sure the hospital will be happy to advise you.

    Hoping you have clear results as well and you make a full recovery. Anything you want to talk about feel free to contact me.
