hysterectomy

Avatar n tn Just over two weeks ago I had a hysterectomy and bladder repair. I was unable to urinate due to swelling and was sent home after six days with instructions to self-cathetorize. Ive had differering instructions as to how often etc. At the moment, I can urinate between 50 - 150 mls on my own every couple of hours but use the catheter every four hours and the residual is between 100 - 200 mls. How much longer can I expect this to continue?
Avatar f tn A week ago I had a hysterectomy. I had lots of complications and what should have been a 90-min. procedure was a 6-hr long ordeal. The next morning I felt great, other than a strong, pinching pain on my lower left side and back. My Dr., while checking on me during her rounds, didn't like the sound of that so she ordered a CT scan. That showed that my left kidney wasn't functioning and right back into surgery I went.
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 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.
Avatar f tn My hysterectomy was for cervical cancer and i can sympathise with you because i know the pain that you are going through and also because i have about 30 metal clips left in my lower abdomen which have caused me huge problems. I am happy that you have discovered these clips at this early stage following your surgery. The best advice that i can offer you is to ask your radiologist for a further more detailed report regarding the location of the clips in relation to the site of the pain.

Avatar m tn The swelling felt like there was a third mass in the scrotum almost like a third testicle upon gentle feeling. Today (Friday, a week and 2.5 days after) the swelling is still there on the right side. It feels like one solid mass, is very very tender to the touch and is still more than 2x the size of the left (which is completely normal at this point).

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.

Avatar n tn I had a root canal on 5/6/08. I noticed swelling a few weeks later in my face and neck and went back to the dentist who said this was not caused by the tooth. I then went to an endodontist who confirmed this. I had an ultra sound of the neck and was told there was no lump although I feel there is a lump (probably swollen lymph nodes). I then consulted an ENT doctor who thought the swelling was from the tooth and told me to go to an oral surgeon.
