Hysterectomies - it's gotta be done but over here for hand holding

I guess I start..
My cervix is on the outside, it can't all hang where it should and no manner of pelvic floor exercises or devises will get it back there.
I'm 41, one fab dd and wanted more but there you are, can't now can I?

This thread, hopefully, will be for those waiting, recovering or supporting

Jazz are grown in the uk so my judgy pants are calm, don't worry :)
They're just not for me as they from braeburns and there is something about the flavour that I don't like.
Anyone who eats loads of apples is doing the right thing in my book, they fill you up, have loads of dietary fibre, very high levels of the Right antioxidants to help you fight cancers, cholesterol, muscle damaged too (I must state that researchers at lots of institutes publish papers on how good apples are but EU law being the astounding fuck up that it is prevents us from using any health claims associated with fruit and veg in the uk....)

I've just slept all afternoon, if I'm this knackered now, what on earth am I going to be like post op??!! Fled I hope you have done something similar?

Must move now. Off to a meeting about..... Apples! Oh my life, so cosmopolitan..

Odds if I like jazz but not Braeburnsg ( slightly woolly) what else should I try. Feeling appley now...

Fled how ya going ?!

Howdy to everyone else
I have done ebaying today and listed 10 items. Dh is trying to strap things down in case I list them.

Tum has burst open again in a different place. Taped up again.

Evening all

Yes to resting. My pal (of my hairy forehead fame) came and gave my brows their weekly tidy. Lay on the sofa being pampered.

Then DH drove me to work where I ambled along the corridor, said hello to my pals and handed in my sick line. Everyone said I'm pale but looking well. Felt dizzy after and lay down (was only out half an hour). Then best pal came round and cooked tea whilst I sat on the sofa doing dc's reading.

I'm really trying to rest (not in my nature). Friends coming round daily to stop me doing anything. Tomorrow morning my friend is coming round whilst DH takes cat #2 to the vet. He's still not right - not eating or moving much and is incontinent at times which isn't good.

@ fled's kitty

I don't like apples I very occasionally eat a golden delicious

Tum burst open again crem - what are they going to do about it? They can't just leave you with a bit of silver that isn't doing anything!

Has the pain subsided a bit yet fled ?

I'm off for a girls weekend in birmingham later, with some very old uni friends. Been looking forward to this as an end point for getting better. One of them sent me some champagne when I got my cancer all clear, so I'm going to take that and toast my recovery.

My phone hasn't got an Internet connection old gimmer that I am, can't work smart phones so I won't be posting over the weekend. Hope everyone has a good, pain and opening wound, free weekend.

Need your support ladies! Started a thread about my lovely neighbours and the events of Monday. Someone has posted that I am "entitled" and "the world revolves around me since my surgery".

Please feel free to look through chat for a thread called "noisy neighbours" and comment! I'm being emotional but feel quite upset as I really didn't think I was coming across like that. If I am feel free to slap me!

you weren't coming across like that at all - she was being rude!

All the others pretty much agreed with you - your neighbours abu.

Deep breath and IGNORE ridiculous posters!

SHewhowines - have a bloody brilliant weekend! What a lovely thing to do ! Enjoy enjoy enjoy!!!

Back to nurse today after a night of leaking all over the bed.
I don't know what to do. The older bits are knitting now so probably just more waiting. Am feeling a bit more like myself regardless of the wound.

Fled ignore eejits on that thread.
You don't need controversy in your life right now particularly online where people can be anonymous twunts.

Thankyou. Was wondering if I was being entitled or just hormonal. On the plus side they've gone out for the day. They haven't sent their DS1 to school but glared at the house on the way out - I'm lying on sofa being nosy.

Shewhowines - have a fab time and enjoy yourself.

Fled just posted on there as well hope it comes across ok, do think you need to be careful as normally those kind of people dont give a shit about other people and what they think of them try not to let it stress you out including people who poston threads just to stir things up.

Oh crem not again poor you.

Shew have a fab time

I went to the pub last night just up the road for a family thing had fun but really tired and a bit sore today so rest day it is, also thinking about maybe driving will be 4 weeks next tuesday, when did/areyou going to drive?

I've posted fled. It never ceases to amaze me how some peoples minds work. Since reading mn, it has opened my eyes to how weird people are. Some people only see black or white. Different shades of grey seem an alien concept. Weird.

she have a lovely weekend away.
crem so sorry about the wound leakage again! I think you need to ask the hospital to come up with a reassuring plan of action.
fled sorry can't find the thread but you are not entitled so ignore!

Oh joy another course of anti- biotics for me. I am going to phone the Gynae ward again for a second opinion re infection. So so tired of this shite. I know if it wasn't for this I'd be feeling fine and thinking about driving again. It is 6 weeks since op and I am
starting to feel rebellious. Not good .

Oh crem - sorry it's more abx. Please don't be rebellious - I'm doing that for all of us . Was so upset at bring called entitled this morning I went out with DH to morrisons this afternoon. Didn't do any lifting or pushing but feel I overdid it walking round. Now on sofa with feet up and a day of nothing planned for tomorrow. I am the worlds worst patient.

Crem Kanzi is the sister of Jazz, you could also try Envy which came out of the same programme in New Zealand. Smitten should also be like Jazz.

If you spot a Rubens it really is worth trying they are delicious.
I wish I could say they have antibiotic properties but that is probably pushing healthy claims a little far ??

Thanks odds !will keep an eye out for apples that sound like 80's perfumes

Another one having a shit day heree. I've been back to bed with painkillers. I was feeling great yesterday morning but the walk I had took in a long downwards slope. Either that or trying to hold my tummy muscles in to trry to start on my abdominals really set something off. I feel like I've been bopped in the belly. It's not the scar.

I feel double dull as I was doiing well till now but it's a blip I suppose.

Spud I thought yesterday I might be ok to drive (5 weeks post op) but today - no way. You have to be confident that you can look round behind you and do an emergency stop without hesitation.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Friday is not a good day for us today is it.
Good to hear about the driving i am just over 3 weeks post op and couldnt imagine driving yet but thought i was just being over carefull and dont want anyone to think i am stringing this out, hubby doesn't think i am, he is constantly telling me i am doing to much i'm not , think i am just being paranoid....

The trouble with me is that I only know that I'm overdoing it when it's already beeen overdone!

I've just been catching up with what you are all up to.
Not enough sitting on your arses if you ask me

Sad at all the bursting open and infections.

It will get better. It doen't seem like it at the moment but in a few months time will all be a distant memory.

Sit the fuck down

Plonks arse
