I had a total abdominal hysterectomy with removal of ovaries and cervix due to large uterus, fibroids and endometriosis. I am 43 with 3 children the oldest is 22. My experience with this surgery was not a good one. I laid for 21 hours in this little hospital in the NC mountains in pain so bad that I asked, no begged my husband to kill me. They finally got the pain under control when they found the time. I am now in very bad back pain with a cyst on a kidney and depression so bad that I don't think I can go on at times. If it weren't for my lovely husband and children I don't know what I would do. I also got pneumonia post surgery and the doctor said that I was just a nervous person. Gee, what kind of gyno does the surgery and then that is the last time he wants to hear from you? Is that the way all of them are? I feel like I had a drive thru hysterctomy and pushed out the door. I feel like I have been thru a war. Leaving me with some kind of post traumatic stress disorder. What can I do? I feel like I mean nothing anymore. The doctors here helped me come to that conclusion.

I know what you are going through, I too had a total hysterectomy just last month. The doctor who did the surgery, did a follow up on me a week after my release from the hospital, then swished me away like I was the plague, ignoring all of my complaints. All I can say is, if it hadn't been for God, me constantly praying, and morphine LOL! I couldn't have made it. I'm not trying to push my faith on you, it's just what I did.
I wish you well, in your recovery.

I totally fell your pain the same thing happened to me just the other day, he says to me he only makes sure the incision is heeld and then released me, what about all the after effects, the pain, the depression the body aches, He stated to me to go see my pcp. ok thats fine but he is not the one thta did the surgery you are so how can you just push me off on another guy, just be cause the wound is healed by him looking on the outside does not mean anything. Well I am on my way to my pcp hope he is more sympathetic.
