Let me tell you, this is going to hurt when you first get it done. It will burn and you will be in pain but the day after surgery it does not hurt as bad anymore.
You will be throbbing and on pelvic rest until 2 weeks. Honestly this was the best option I went. I got mine done January 14th and I feel way better. I do not feel like my uterus is super heavy anymore nor is there a lot of pressure.
I could not get the hysterectomy even if I wanted to because my bladder and uterus and probably part of my bowels are fused together with scar tissue and the doctor said it was risky for him to do that and I had a possibility of dying
They also said of the pain and stuff gets bad again I am going to have a second surgery that includes going through groin area and go into the uterus into blood vessels and stop the blood from going into certain parts that are no longer need.
I also had issues with my heart rate because when I woke up it was 44/50 and it kept going up and dropping. It was rough but once it came back up I felt better.
I did not bleed as much with this operation only spotted a little bit here and there at the beginning however the 3rd day is like a light period.
I am expected to have a few periods to help get it out the rest of the way but we are not 100% sure I well have a period or not anymore after that.
The doctor is also afraid that the Adenomyosis is on the uterus tissue and he could not get it all so we are looking out for that also after recovery. I also have PCOS on top of this that is makes things difficult.
Honestly this surgery was the best thing I could do. I feel way better already and my uterus does not feel heavy like it did unless I have to pee then my bladder makes it heavy.
I have no incision to worry about the only thing is I am on risk of infection for 2 weeks reason why I got a post op appointment but other than that taking it easy.
I do not have any incisions to worry about but I do have an infection risk until everything goes back to normal.
