thought id up date you of my out come of my hysterectomy ..got a phone call from the nurse at the hospital yesterday saying the pathology results have come back from all the bits they took from me ,,everything fine was caught very early and no further treatment ,just a follow up appointment in 3 months .what a relief..looking back if i didnt have that big bleed what sent me to the a&e .i would have carried on having the light period type bleed thinking it was the menopause or the fibroid i had, things could have been worse just glad they sent me for the biopsy x daisie

Hey daisie
So pleased to hear your good news that all is well and no further treatment! You must be so pleased! :foryou: I can't remember how old you are or whether you had ovaries out too but I hope they've offered you HRT to help you through the coming months as it will be a shock to your system?
Here's to a healthy recovery! :)

hi hudity..thank you ..yes i had my ovaries out everything is gone ,cervix and womb as well im 60 ..they didnt offer me any hrt .but when i get myself mobile as to going out ..im going to see the doctor and have a word with them ..i suppose i will only need estrogen now .whats the lowest dose you can have x daisie
-
daisie, that's great news, I am so pleased, I was wondering how you were getting on. It's good that you are not having any further treatment but quite normal in cases like yours I believe. What a relief. Please keep us posted on your progress.

thank you maryg and sparkle ..was good news for me .the waiting for results was more worse than the operation i think just time now to recover ,,seems strange when i get thoughts running through my head ,,thinking theres no femail parts in me any more but im sure that will disappear in time x daisie
-
Fantastic news,don't try and over do it though ;)
-
:congrats: now rest! Make the most of recovery time ;) ……….. I would ring the Surgeon's secretary and ask what advice you should have received regarding HRT ………. perhaps the Surgeon has sent recommendations to your GP? They don't seem to join up the dots much do they :bang: - HRT should have been discussed prior to surgery ::)
Who you got to bring you a cuppa, fill a wine glass, fill your bath :whist:

hi clkd..good advice ..im calling the doctor today i will ask if they can try me on a small dose of estrogen ,when the surgeon came to see me after op he never mentioned it i was out of it at that time tho ,well clkd its a good idea to have a glass of wine ..but i dont drink arnt i boring ,,i used to drink a lot ..something put me off it all happened while going through the menopause and since iv been on the amitriptyline .im hoping the taste for a drink will come back one day ..will let you know what the doc has to say x daisie
-
Daisie, I've gone off drinking as well - very odd!
-
hi ancient runner..yes i thought the same its weired isnt it ,,i used to love a drink but the thought of it turns my stomache..i did try to have a drink a while ago ..had a couple of sips then that was it no more x daisie
-
daisie, my neighbour that I mentioned before used HRT for years after her hysterectomy because her menopause was very sudden. Her hot flushes were so bad, her glasses used to steam up and it was very embarrassing particularly as she was on reception at work. I would definitely recommend you use a bio identical, transdermal oestrogen, they are far more effective.

thanks mary g iv made an appointment for next week to see a doctor ..but iv heard and read its too much estrogen that as caused the cancer cells in my womb .i know it cant happen again .but breast cancer runs in the family too so i will have that to consider ill just waite and see what the doc says .i do need something as my mood is very low x daisie
