pelvic pain and heavy bleeding (afraid)

thank you for ur comment, i did talk to a girl on a website called "hystersisters" she is my age and we talked for a while because she went through something like me. and thank you guys for being there through this, many people say im very mature but i still get scared and this website has really made it better (nerve wise)

Wow. I am so sorry to hear everything you've gone through.
You sound like a amazing girl and very brave.
I wish you a speedy recovery, and my thoughts are with you

i have a question, y am i hooked up to a heart monitor?, i forgot to ask my doc last time i saw her, and i am curious, does it mean there is something wrong with my heart?

hello, just wanted to check in (tho im kind of out of it). my doc said the surgery went ok was got a little bad for a second, because when they cut one of the blood vessells to my uterus i started to bleed out and they had to get a transfusion. so that was fun (not) because i have a rare blood type and all that, but my dad has the same type so that was good. and i was very comforted by the fact that when i woke up my parents were there and so was my bf (he was holding my hand for hours from what i hear cuz ive been asleep since i think the day b4 yesterday. so i woke up to him asleep holding my hand, it was very sweet then he got up on the bed to lay there with me a while later to hold me because he was so scared for me he just wanted me in his arms, he also read to me pride and prejuduce later cuz im to out of it to read to myself.) also my aunt and uncle came in and she lives in colorado so that was nice for her to come, so im really surround by really comforting people (they all got there around 3am or so on the 22nd and waited in the waiting room from what i remember i was only awake for like a second then i fell asleep for a whole day! i coouldnt believe how much i slept). im stil in a little pain but having all these people here make me feel a lot better (tho im super tired, and so was james; ie my bf sorry i skipped on telling his name. and we both fell asleep after everyone left, that was really the best sleep i have had in days, its comforting in his protective arms) and its been really hard sleeping cuz im up to this heart monitor thing (cuz i have a fever, not a high one but a slight one) and it keeps beeping, its actually quite annoying. and last night i tried to roll over, and it was like a huge mistake because the things on my hand came off (painful) and the thing started beeping like crazy and a bunch of nurses came in, that was a lot of fun (not) not to metion it hurt my stomach a lot to go on my stomach, im NEVER doing that again lol
and as an answer to ur question they only gave me anxiety meds on the 21st and the 22nd, not today because i dont want to be that drugged. tho i am on very heavy pain pills from what i understand, but right now i kinda dont care cuz id rather have that than be in dibilating pain.
also just another thing i wanted to check in about is that they did end up taking the other ovary (to try and harvest more eggs out, how i dont know, but that is what my doc is going to do) so im going to be starting hrt in a while tho im not sure which kind yet, my doc is seeing which one would be the perfect one for me (not too many side effects).

and yes my doctor told me what to expect and that i will probably b off the ice till march, but i found this website that gave tips on how to keep my stomach flat bcuz right now i have "swelly belly" as they call it and there is this thing i can wear once im out of the hospital that can help my stomach muscles to get stronger and keep my stomach supported so that the "swelly belly" is lessened.

(again i am out of it so if anything i said did not make sense i can explain it lol bcuz i dont really think the times i gave add up right but im not sure, but it sure did take me a long time to write it all)

Hi, Billiegirl, sorry we missed you yesterday. I'm glad you learned about the egg harvesting (though I'm so sorry it was painful) and that you will have those eggs frozen for yourself when you get older.

I'm very, very sorry that you have to have a hysterectomy. It's scheduled for tonight, then? You and your parents did well to have a second opinion (and I like Aussie accents, too!) Are they giving you medicine for the anxiety and nervousness?

Are your parents there more now, Billiegirl? Are you getting all the information you need about the hysterectomy, and your recovery time, and what to expect?

I am so impressed with your attitude. Good for you, finding the good in things -- that is a skill that you will carry with you all of your life. I will be thinking of you tonight and hope that the surgery goes perfectly and that your recovery is smooth. We'll all be eager to hear your update.

hi i know what that means now, its uncomfortable. just to catch you guys up, this morning i woke up in a bit of pain (as always) but i had some weird discharge and she did some tests and she basically told me that the tumor had already kind of messed up my myometrium and endometrium, and that now the infection has probably ruined my uterus completly and that i could never carry a child now and that i should have a hysterectomy. of course my parents and i got a second opinion (my doc was nice and even suggested it b4 we said it) it was weird the other doctor who came was a dude so that was weird but he had an austrailian accent (i like austrailian accents). he did some tests but what he said was the same as my regular doctor. so they sechedualed me for one tommorrow night (and he did the "egg harvesting thing, i found it actually a little painful but he said he got a good amount of eggs). im really nervous, i hate surgery, i know i should be kinda used to it by now but im still nervous, but they are saying that the infection should be almost gone after the surgery because thatz where it was starting from, so thats good. and another good thing (i always try to find positives) is that this other doctor (the guy one) is really concerned about my nervousness (the other one was as well, less, shes busier) and he has been trying to make me less nervous, he siad that he is going to consult on the surgery and be there the whole time. hes like really nice.

thank you for u girls support so far, i will be back on probably the 22nd to check in.

my doctor said that if she does do a hyst she can do an operation to frezze my eggs prior to the operation(because she would also take out my other ovary). now my question is how would they "freeze my eggs" and what exactly does that mean?

thank you for ur comment & ur message mrs beaver, my doc showed me how my body would "settle" after a hyst as it was very important to me. she told me that she believed that with certian stretches i should be able to make it all work. it is a last resort but my doc is thinking more and more about it as a option, and that she may have to do it.

hi i have a question for u girls, because there is a chance that i will end up having a hysterectomy i started searching info online about it, and i came accross a website called "hers" and i saw a video and it says that after a hysterectomy my bones and my other oragans wont fit together the same way anymore. is that true? is anything in that video tru?, it sounds terrible, mainly because i am a figure skater, and if thats true that might tottally ruin my dream of ever being in the olympics

thank you for ur help in advance
