@ink_junkie83: I recently found out I have a large uterine tumor and am scheduled for a hysterectomy in two weeks. Iโ€™m nervous and would love to hear your experiences! How long was your recovery? What helped the most? What do you wish youโ€™d known beforehand? Any tips, advice, or words of encouragement would mean so much! ๐Ÿฉท #surgery #hysterectomy #fyp #support #HelpNeeded

Gas-X, stool softener, 7up for stomach aches, pain meds, belly binder (asked for one at hospital), hysterectomy pillow, weighted heating pad - things that helped me a lot

Take your pain pills. Set an alarm to keep it in your system for the first few days. Stay ahead of the pain. I slept in the recliner bc it was easier to get up. Heating pad. Big cup of my fav drink. A variety of snacks within reach. But at the same time get up and move gently. Take your time. Donโ€™t rush to say you feel great bc it takes time to heal all that. Be kind to yourself. If you need to talk, shoot me a message. Good luck and sending prayers for you, your surgical team, and your caretakers.

I think it depends on the type incision . 5 days post op. Feeling much better today than before. Stay on time w pain meds. Itโ€™s helps me move arounds without being too much in pain. Everyone heals differently. Donโ€™t rush recovery. Ask for help when you need it. Sleeping in a recliner helps me a lot. I couldnโ€™t sleep in the bed.

Start the stool softener a couple days before surgery, walking will save you when it comes to gas pain, I am not a back sleeper at all ! Only a couple days into recovery i ordered a wedge and thatโ€™s has helped a lot.

Heating pad. Take it easy. You may feel great after two days, but itโ€™s a tricks. Donโ€™t over do it and rest.

Iโ€™m 19 days post-opโ€ฆ do it! If itโ€™s done via laparoscopy, the healing isnโ€™t bad at all.

I had mine Tuesday and I am now six days out and itโ€™s hard because I canโ€™t do what I wanna do. I had a 10cm tumor. And lost all my reproductive organs, but my left ovary.

19 days post op. I loved having the wedge pillow, heating pad and belly binder (helped me sleep on my side without feeling like my insides were falling out ๐Ÿ˜‚) Recovery for me was much easier than I thought. Make sure you are very hydrated the week of surgery, eat well so you can poop easily after surgery and meal prep healthy foods. Not painful but, healing is a long process and be patient. You got this!!!!! Good luck and happy healing โค๏ธ

On day two or three I took a very hot shower, a couple days later I ended up sick took meds slept a whole day and felt great next day. You gotta walk when you can and rest. Meal prep before make sure to eat lot of fiber

I had a softball sized tumor and Iโ€™m just over 16 weeks post op. After a hysteroscopy, we still didnโ€™t know what it was. My best friend had a hysterectomy a few years ago, and I asked her some questions, but generally, I knew nothing going in and to be honest, Iโ€™m so glad I didnโ€™t. Being on hysterectomy tiktok before surgery would have made my anxiety sky rocket. Everyoneโ€™s experience is so different and everyone has different post op preferences. What works for some would not have worked for me and Iโ€™m sure that goes both ways. No matter what, youโ€™re going to do great!

You will feel good quickly but do not over do it. I felt back to normal with in a few days. I was up baking Christmas cookies with zero issues 5 days post op. I just couldnโ€™t lift anything heavy.

Good support and loving family and friends. Donโ€™t compare your recovery to anyone elseโ€™s, weโ€™re all different. Be patient and be kind to yourself. I had mine begin ing of August and the physical healing was the easy part. I had everything taken. If youโ€™re going g to have ovaries removed find a good Dr who listens to you and supports you because the HRT journey is a long one. I cannot emphasize this part enough. Prayerfully it wonโ€™t be this hard for you, but if it is, remember be kind to yourself.

Iโ€™m 4 years post op (laparoscopic as well ) these ladies are all so right. The gas pains are the worst part , so use a heating pad. But FYI, best decision ever! Oh donโ€™t try to be a hero and โ€œso toughโ€ ,, enjoy your time off and recover!!! No lifting!!!!!
