Hi there ...

Well don't know if I'm much help as I had my hysterectomy some 20 odd years ago ... when it was classed as a major op ... with 5/6 days in hospital and a big scar ... I've a feeling lots have changed now .. but so glad they took my ovary s   away too .. 

The one thing in common with every op is ,  listen to your body .. don't over do things or try to run before you can walk .. enjoy the "down time" and get books / D V D's in ... have games on your comp .. pad ..  I was told the hole it leaves in our stomachs has to be gently filled nateraly ... over exercise can make your intestines fall too quickly and cause more problems ... so baby steps ... listen and stop when your body tells you ... no heavy / medium lifting .. think I was told not to drive for 4/5 weeks .. May have changed ..

Well fingers crossed all will go smoothly ...  Chrissie x

Hi Chrissie

Thank you so much for your reply.  I hadn’t thought about the hole that would be left & how it would be filled.  I’ll definitely bear that in mind before doing something I shouldn’t be doing (like lifting things).  I’ll take it as easy as possible for as long as possible!

Thanks again. I’ll Hope you are doing well.
