I had laprascopic surgery on Thursday the 11th by an absolute expert. Total hysterectomy and throw in lopping off the appendix and gall bladder (stones were evident in the MRI) as well. I'm healing and recovering. Doing pretty good. I think I am having more effects from the gall bladder removal (some nausea and more pain in that are) than the rest. I am completely and utterly amazed by modern medicine.
I had to have the hysterectomy since adenamyosis had become -deeply- rooted and was causing problems. The other ovary (the one left by the surgery before) was showing signs on endomytriosis again, too. And, as I noted above, gall stones, rather sizable, actually.
So now... hopefully the Hormone Replacement Therapy won't go horridly wrong and I'll go back to normal for a lot longer than the last time *chuckle*.
This was, though, the right thing at the right time. I don't regret anything (or so I say right now *laugh*).
I am drinking a tonne of water. It's the best thing to keep the nausea at bay, for me.
