Hi,
I am 39 and menpausal due to a complete hysterectomy last January. The recovery from my surgery was not bad at all. Since about 2 weeks after my surgery however, I have been going through hell with menopause!!!
I am frustrated. When my surgery was scheduled, I got a pile of information on what to expect from the surgery and recovery. In all of those handouts there was 1 small paragraph saying I would go into menopause right away!
I was not prepared for any of this! I had no idea what to expect and how extreme my symptoms would be! It's been the worst year of my life and still not feeling better! There seems to be no end in sight!
What I don't understand is, why don't they give woman more info so we at least know what to expect?
Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks!
Karen
