Surgery is scheduled...
27
Tue, 08-26-2008 - 6:41pm
I am scheduled for a hysterectomy on September 17.  Earlier was not possible due to Labor Day and many needed personnel are out of town the next couple of weeks, like the assistant surgeon, etc.   It will be the abdominal hysterectomy, so the 4th cut for me in the same place (bikini cut).  My Gynecologist says probably a lot of my pain is coming from my scar tissue from previous surgeries, so she will remove all of that.  She also thinks there is scar tissue adhered to my bowels, that part is a little scary, but I trust her not to perforate my bowels.  Of course my tumors (there are 2 of them, not one) will be bopsied but hopefully they will find no cancer. I am Looking forward to getting this all behind me... By Thanksgiving I will feel like a new person!!

So glad a date has been picked for your surgery. Sounds like you have a great relationship with your dr, that's great. She will take good care of you. I will be with you as an angel.


Bill is having surgery on his nose which has a very large squeamish cell cancer on it. Don't know how far down it got, it grew very fast. His surgery is on the day before yours. We were told we would be there for all afternoon.


Take care until then. Love and


BIG HUGS...Free

Thank you my friend! Actually everybody that I have talked to that has had a hysterectomy says it was the best thing that ever happened to them, so no horror stories yet...LOL.
