Hi,
I had my right ovary removed in Jan. 09 and my left one removed Dec. 07 due to ovarian cysts and severe endometriosis. I still don't feel 100%! I had many of the similar symptoms you are experiencing as I was recovering in the first 2-6 weeks. They have gotten better but still feel tired and have short term memory issues. I'm taking Estradiol and that seems to help, has your doctor put you on any hormone replacement medication? Having gone from one ovary to NO ovaries was a big change for my body - the lack of hormones was a big challenge but I feel like we have that under control now. Talk to your doctor and ask him/her if your current symptoms are tied to a hormone imbalance.
Keep me posted and let me know how your doing.
