Avatar f tn what I meant was that most people do not have the complications you had. I also have Pernicious Anemia.
810462 tn?1252286160 My doctor explained that my anemia is so bad that the iron stores in my bone marrow has been completely depleted.This is my third treatment. My hemoglobin went up from 5.89 to 7.6. However he is watching my labs closely due to elevated amounts of protein in my blood. Do you know what this could be from? The reason I have been seeing the hematologist was because my OB/GYN sent me to the GASTROnologist and he was very worried about my blood count of 5 and hemacratit of 18.
Avatar f tn It could be that you are experiencing (really) early menopause symptoms. However, I'd get checked out by a doctor. I wouldn't be too concerned if you get your pap done soon. My mother went through something similar for years and assumed it was early menopause. When her pap results came back they were abnormal. It wasn't cancer, but to stop the symptoms and prevent any other complications (like abnormal cells turning cancerous in the future) she ended up having a hysterectomy.
Avatar f tn 7 percent) had serious complications, and 48 (4 percent) were readmitted to a hospital within the year following surgery because of conditions related to hysterectomy. The most common serious complications were related to the incision or urinary tract problems.

Avatar m tn 2011 radical hysterectomy due to complications from multiple large fibroids. Left 1 ovary only (cerix, uterus, 1 ovary and both tubes removed). Post-op pathology showed small adenocarcinoma of cervix which was removed. I have had yearly f/u with my gyn-onc who did the surgery. Forward to 2014- nearing my 50th bday, my abdomen has been getting thicker and thicker, not sure how long this has been going on.
Avatar f tn Help!!! I have history of many prior abdominal surgeries, and then a hyst, and now I am told I have adhesions due to many pelvic surgeries. History of PCOD BAD! Endometriosis, hysterectomy in 05'. Now my stomach feels like it is on fire, I have to burp and pass gas alot. Could adhesions be causing this? What could this be? I don't know if a surgeon or any dr will treat me, as I dont have any insurance, and dont have SSI or Medicaid yet. Can these adhesions be life threatening?
Avatar f tn Are you taking iron pills? Thanks for your response.
Avatar f tn i was hospitalized the next day for complications from hernia surgery. since then i have had problems and now im bleeding vaginally which i shouldnt be considering i dont have a period from a hysterectomy. i told my doctor and she said it was from irritation where my ovary was removed but the bleeding went from spotting to a light period. what should i do?
Avatar f tn That affected seriously heart function, ended up with severe chronic anemia. Got hysterectomy anyway but the overall health is ruined. So even if hysterectomy is overused in this country, one should weight her options and take into consideration all important aspects (age, how heavy is bleeding/pain, are babies wanted in future etc etc) as every situation is unique. I would certainly go to two-three second opinions on that.
8241203 tn?1446763200 m about to be 19 but posting here in this age group to hear from you more experienced moms with most likely more children have any of you gone through labor with anemia how did it go did you need a blood transfusion? I'm 38w today and have a 16 month old so I got pregnant quickly and had anemia with my first too. It's gotten worse my Dr.
Avatar m tn I had a salpingo oopherectomy on both sides, a hysterectomy as well as a appendectomy on February 5th 2013. I am 27 years old. Since the procedure was done I have had severe lower abdominal pain while urinating. I have been very sick. Does anyone have an idea of what this pain is from?
Avatar f tn It is likely to be just a coincidence that you have developed symptoms post your hysterectomy. Diabetes is a chronic disease and complications are unlikely to develop over a few weeks or months and alternative possibilities to the cause of your symptoms may need to be considered. I would suggest getting this evaluated by a primary care physician initially and depending on the cause diagnosed/ suspected, it can be managed accordingly or specialist care may be sought. Hope this is helpful.
620048 tn?1358018235 re okay with your taking iron supplements, then I assume you have iron deficiency anemia, but there are other kinds. You really need to discuss this in person with your doctor and find out what's going on. I don't think iron deficiency happens too often in older women, but if it does, you sure can feel tired from it---that and recovering from pneumonia. Get a copy of all your lab reports, and work on seeing your doctor as soon as you can.
Avatar f tn Hi- Just wondering if anyone out there had any complications post total hysterectomy? I had mine 3 months ago due to several cysts again! Paternal grandma died of ovarian cancer at age 50. I had 15 years of cysts, and a total of 8 laporosopies. I am not even 40 yet! Any how, at my 8 wk check up my oncologist said everything was fine, no infection, no cancer, etc., I can try having sex with my husband. We did everything was fine.
Avatar f tn Hello, I am 47 yr/old, recently diagnosed with fibroid tumor, ovarian cyst, enlarged uterus with borderline endometrial stripe 12mm. My GYN recommended partial hysterectomy. I have Hypertension, Anemia. I am scheduled for a colonoscopy on 3/12. I will have my consultation 2/25 to decide on the next step. What about endo-biopsy?
Avatar f tn My eyesight is becoming a desperate situation yet my doctors will not release me for surgery until anemia is resolved. Is this a situation in which I might expect a hysterectomy? Would this be considered an urgent situation? Would they do the hysterectomy if I have severe anemia? HGB 7.8 in Nov, 7.6 in Jul; Ferretin .7; HCT 27.2 in Nov, 27.1 in Jul, total iron 25 in Jul, iron sat 5% in July, I was given 325mg to take once a day, that's the only treatment so far.
Avatar f tn Tests -biopsy, colonoscopy and Vag.Ultrasound. Blood work thyroid normal B12 high, below 5 ferritin, low hem 105. Taking 2 iron pills. Anemia causing red blood cells to shrink in size. Thickiening of uterus lining. Waiting for next mense to start age 46 told was in perimenapause. Hoping maybe I'm done bleeding? wishful thinking. My iron stores wont go up anxious about next bleed, Told last time 42 had to take tanx acid to stop the bleeding in ER or blood tranf was needed.

Avatar n tn I am not confirmed yet that I have the hepatitis yet. I've been waiting since August 20th and then went to the gastro doctor last week and he is running the appropriate tests. Bill, I was told years ago that I had pernicious anemia and now I'm testing postive for anemia too. My anemia levels were HCG 11.2 low and RBC 4.02 low which isn't horrible but low. I keep thinking that the tests must be coming in soon!
Avatar f tn May 2016 is where it all started. I was hemorrhaging with large clots. I just turned 40. The 1st hospital gave me a depo shot. I've since had a DNC,been to a hematologist with no answers and still bleeding heavy with clots. There have been times in the last 9 months that I only saw blood when I wiped. The majority of the last 9 months has been non stop bleeding with small and large clots.
725741 tn?1245086607 wow we have something in common Im getting pimples since my hysterectomy too, Your not having pms symptoms your having post hysterectomy symptoms...very similar..I use Sea Breeze an alcolol based ski cleaner with a cotton ball solved my problem. Very very often for reasons unknown the uterus removal effects ovarian function by decreasing it.
482924 tn?1333203671 Please, please, please do not just rush into a hysterectomy! I was forced into one at the age of 27 and my life has never been the same since. For one I almost died from the sugery and for two, there is a very long list of major complications/illness' that come with a hysterectomy. Some doctor's push for a hysterectomy because they make good money from them and will continue making more money off of you, because of the side affects and complications.
