Hi
Just wanted to update. I am scheduled to have a hysterectomy on may 9th.

I am a bit nervous, but tired of the pain. I am having my period right now, and it has been very painful, to the point I cant sleep.

Hopefuly I will feel normal again !! And NO MORE CYSTS !!!

Ask him to try to save the nerves to the vagina area.

Hey djl.....well, glad to hear you are hopefully going to get your problems under control!! What a long, crazy ride!!! My friend who just had her grapefruit cyst removed (whole left side ovary and tube) is still having lots of problems....it just really SUCKS for you all!! I do wish you the best of luck next week - my mom will be having an angiogram that day as well, so i will spend most of the day praying for you guys!!! I do check the board now and then, so I'll look for your recovery post :-) Take care!!

What type of hysterectomy are you having?

I have been reading up on laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy, which preserves the cervix and requires only a one-day hospital stay and half the recovery time. If I need a hysterectomy, that's the one I'd want.
