Advice after hysterectomy

1a grade 3 endometrial, full hysterectomy and 4 brachytherapy. I’m now 7 months past hysterectomy but still suffer bloating top of ribs under breast bone, anyone else suffer this, worse depending on what I’ve eaten. I was also opened up on my old caesarean scar and sometimes my left hand side of scar feels tight and uncomfortable behind the scar. Is sad that I don’t know what’s normal pain now since hysterectomy and cancer, 

  • Hello Mario11

    I'm sorry to hear that you're still dealing with ongoing pain and discomfort following your treatment. It's understandable that you're feeling and frustrated by things. 

    Have you spoken to your GP or clinical nurse specialist about the pain and bloating that you're experiencing? If not then please do get in touch with them to discuss things. It's easy to attribute the problems you're dealing with as "just one of those things" but it may be something simple that can be managed with advice and support from your GP or clinical team. Do give them a call. 

    I really hope that things settle and improve for you soon. 

    Best wishes,
