I had a total hysterectomy laparoscopic (LAVH) with the Da Vinci Method on April 11th 2016. I had my uterus, both fallopian tubes, left ovary and cervix removed.
I had this performed in hopes of easing my chronic pain condition PCS or Pelvic Congestion Syndrome.

Had the total DaVinci Hysterectomy 4 weeks ago, and am frustrated that I'm not further along in recovery. I've seen women who are ready to slay the world at 2 weeks post-op, so I feel like there's something wrong with me. I'm cramping just as you've said, and still get tired. My 6 week exam is in 2 weeks and I'm anxious to see how my cuff is healing. Thank you for the video, the medical community can be vague on what to expect afterwards.

CimmerianFire your so welcome girl! I know super vague. And I had moments I would compare my recovery to other women who were healing seemingly faster then me. But I realized more often that they were not the norm and the norm is a slower recovery for most women. How you doing now?

omg me too. I had my surgery june 20 2022 and im 3 weeks out and still can't walk but a couple of feet without pain , or stand to long without pain. My doctor said its normal and that because i have diabetes i heal slowly. Ive been depressed and crying because i just want to feel better already. Today was a good day though. Thank you beautiful ladies for sharing your stories. It lets me know even though its annoying im doing ok :)

I like hearing the different recovery experiences so I can get an idea what possibilities could happen when I finally get my hysterectomy scheduled for my Adenomyosis. I also like the way you go about giving the information. My husband & I definitely need to know how long I may need to rely on friends & family for everything including walking the dog (he's a 100 lb German Shepherd so I'll need accompaniment when I can walk with him in case there are certain neighbor dogs out that are more leash reactive & try to start a bark-yelling match).Thank you for sharing these!

LN Foo I started hemorrhaging. I’m at 15 weeks post op and I’m doing great, feeling great. The cause of bleeding was a granulation tissue that formed. Good luck and take it easy.

My surgery went well, thank goodness! I was so scared and anxious before. Lol I haven"t had much pain or spotting since day six post-op. My only issue has been gas and constipation. I'm getting those things in check. If you have any suggestions, that would be great. I'm sorry you've had 3 surgeries since. I hope the last one solved the issues. I'm glad to hear that you are better:)

Hi, I know this was in 2016, please forgive me. I searched and came across your video. I am in my 6th wk post op. Ugh! This was nothing like I expected it to be. I am also emotionally exhausted and frustrated...healing slow as well. Thank you for sharing your truth! If you don't mind me asking...did your body reject stitches or staple sutures? Just wandering, because my body has rejected 5 absorbable staples!! Three of them had to be pulled out. Just unbelievable!!! Again, thank you for sharing.

7wks post abdominal hysterectomy & bladder stitching. Still feeling like 💩. Pain & pressure in the vagina. It was supposed to be a laparoscopic hysterectomy. That didn't work so they tried vaginally and that didn't work so they did an abdominal hysterectomy and once they were inside they noticed my bladder was bulging so they stitched it up whatever that means. I feel like the street paver ran me over. I start work next week and I'm terrified. I am not okay. 😉 thx for posting. Not many videos on slow recovery.

Hi I had TDVH everything including ovaries removed! I've been back in the office two times for silver nitrate treatments I'm going on my fifth week as of this Friday it's very frustrating I feel OK crampy some twinges and sharp shooting pain's had a CAT scan done and it was normal so I'm wondering is it ever going to end and he gave me Estraceto try and help along the vaginal cuff healing but I was just wondering if this is completely normal to have granulation after the hysterectomy or my going to have to have surgery do you think

tonia sutton hey lady! I find this to be pretty normal and have chatted with many women who had granulation tissue. It's very rare you will need surgery to resolve it and the treatments will help. I know it sucks, and I was just so ready to feel normal again. But I promise it does get better and you will heal. Feel free to reach out and we can chat more one on one. My email is infofitwithblair@gmail.com. Also you can find me on Facebook too. I am also in an amazing online Facebook hysterectomy group that I can connect ya with.
