hysterectomy
I had a laparoscopic hysterectomy done Sept. 10, 2012. They took everything outI I mean everything. I came home on the 11th to recover. Since then my weight is about 10 pounds more than when I went in. It is now 1:00 in the morning (9-24-12) and I can not sleep or sit in a chair because of extremely painful and gassy bloating. I am in tears because of the pressure and taking something to make me burp doesn't work and I've been taking milk of magnesium.
I know where you are comming from regarding the bloating isssue. In Jan of this year I felt some sort of "bloating" or "pressure"....I mentioned it to one of my docs and he ordered an mri.....it turned out to be nothing but I am so glad I said something as I would still be worried.....actually, I called and requested an ultrasound.....he listened and did what he could to reassure me.....your medical team should do the same for you!

it felt like my cycle/period again just like what happened in June, Bleeding, Bloating, Severe Back Ache (never had prior to hysterectomy).

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?
I am really bloated-had hysterectomy 4 days ago. Total hysterectomy. Why are my ankels and legs swollen?
Hysterectomy, ovary removal or not, seems to affect metabolism because many women complain of weight gain. Although sometimes the surgery seems to cause transient bloating more so than permanent weight gain. This may be due to the effect on the bowels and maybe even the bladder (and hence the kidneys) since those organs are displaced (descend in the abdomen) after the uterus is removed.
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?
Option 2 is something to think about, however as I discussed about scar tissue, you will get it,,,my ovary became wrapped in scar tissue and was attached to my bowels lead to lots of complications,,A hysterectomy has lots of pluses and minuses at your age, Of corse you will be thrown intomenopause.
have you tried Leupron its an injection that will put you into a chemically induced menopause, I have heard many negative side effects as far as emotions running high, crying spells etc.
Right now, my abdomen is still very swollen. I still feel a lot of gas and bloating, which gets worse around late afternoon to night time. (Why does it get worse at night?)
The doctor told me the wound would take around a month to heal, but the gas takes longer to go away. Is that true?
The area around my wound is still painful, but the most painful is the pressure from the bloating and gas.
Since I last wrote the pains in my abdomen have gone away. I do still have lower back pain from time to time and it sure isn't from over exerting myself. : ) March 1st is a healing period of 6 weeks. You asked how my appetite was and bloating. I feel my appetite has increased (God Forbid) and I do feel bloated all the time! Does anyone else have increased appetite & bloating? Is this normal? Is anyone doing any type of light exercise while healing?
Have had cholecystectomy in my 20s, appendectomy in my 20s, tonsillectomy in late teens, hysterectomy 4 years ago (still have ovaries) and left lung resection and pleurodesis after 4 lung collapses in 2010.
This past spring, I had difficulty eating- really had to force myself to eat. Feeling full after a few bites. Also tired. Lost 10 pounds (was weighing 102 pounds prior to this). Chalked it up to stress due to a move and career change.
m 46 and I have 4 fibroids, 3 are embedded in the walls of my uterus and one is outside my uterus. My doctor told me I need a hysterectomy. I have some pain and bloating, my periods are the same, no increased bleeding with the fibroids. I'm scared to have a hysterectomy, is there any other way to get rid of them? Any advice please?
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?
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.
A hysterectomy means removal of the uterus. The ovaries are often not removed. Oopherectomy (sp?) means the ovaries were removed. Find out if you still have them. It is possible to get ovca following a hysterectomy. Please see your doc for a workup. I wish you the best.
Does anyone know if a 4cm ovarian cyst can cause stomach bloating (upper and lower)? Can a cyst be cancerous?
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.
Is it normal to be bloated or feeling like I am gaining a pound everyday after surgery? It's only been 5 weeks since my hysterectomy, and I'm not eating much since then either. My same clothes I have been wearing are getting tighter and tighter. How can things change this fast?? Yes I am not as physical right now, but I am "puffed up" more than normal. I'm still in pain sometimes, but trying to take care of myself the best I can.
