Common Questions and Answers about Hysterectomy recovery bladder problems

hysterectomy

Avatar f tn This happens fairly commonly after hysterectomy. I would also do a urinalysis to check for a bladder infection. If you were my patient, I would definitely want you to call for an appointment! Good luck!
1710955 tn?1309446473 But I thought it was caused by taking estrogen. There is a link between bladder and bowel problems after hysterectomy since those organs are displaced after the uterus is removed. So it would seem possible that the gall bladder could be affected too. Although I don't have abdominal pain, my bowels have been messed up since my hysterectomy. A test showed fat malabsorption which may or may not be related to the gall bladder or pancreas.

2180412 tn?1337798149 For the fact that I can hold my bladder... since I had both partial hysterctomy and the bladder lift.. who do I contact with these problems.
Avatar n tn I was diagnosed by the Urologist I see with, pelvic organ prolapse; bladder prolapse (cystocele) and urethral prolapse (urethrocele) and rectal prolapse (rectocele). He stated that surgery would be the only option to corrent these problems. He suggested a plastic ring thing but this does not interest me at all. He said my bladder was extending past pelvic bone during stress situations (coughing, sneezing).
Avatar f tn If I have a hysterectomy, seeing how I had my tubes cut and they remove my uterus will I still have monthly periods? Also, we are going on a cruise in Oct, will I be complete healed by then? Thanks for your time.
Avatar n tn I had a Partial Hysterectomy 2 years ago, they also put my bladder ina sling. Now having some problems urinating with pain and bleed ing. Theuy aren't sure what's going on yet. Does anyone know if sling can come undone and what the symptoms are?
1930941 tn?1400107522 Hey Penn, Happy to hear your on the mend, but sorry your surgery was not uneventful. Like Barb says watch that fever. Bowel (nicks) is nothing to play around with. Btw, why do they call em nicks when they are really CUTS (ha)! I too had a hysterectomy a few years back and they "nicked" my bladder. Had to go home with a catheter for 5 weeks. I know this recovery is not fun, but you'll be better than normal once you heal especially if they did remove the offending scar tissue.
Avatar f tn m surprised your doctor released you to go back to work after just 2 weeks. Hysterectomy is major surgery with recovery typically 6-8 weeks but definitely AT LEAST 4 weeks. But I've seen it before - women told they can return to desk jobs 1 or 2 weeks after surgery which should NOT be happening. There is so much cutting done internally so it's not about the size and number of incisions (e.g.
Avatar m tn They are now getting super heavy again and my uterus gets so enlarged before my period that it pushes on my bladder. I am going to get a partial hysterectomy next month. I am going to keep my ovaries so will not have to take hormones.
Avatar m tn My doctor, who I trust and who did my last surgery, recommends a hysterectomy for me with my problems and Mothers history. I have heard horror stories about it and the homorne therapy decision. Is it best for me to get it all out or roll the dice? My sister who is 1 year older than me just had a hysterectomy with no hormone therapy. Is it better to do it that way? I am scheduled for surgery this Wednesday and I feel very confused. I am afraid of what may be on my ovary.
Avatar n tn your doctor is wrong many women have a hysterectomy with adhesions my doctor had to peeel my bladder off of scar tissue and the peel my ovary off my bowle he sound slike he dont want to do te=he surgerie ...is he a very old doctor....perhaps not up on laproscopic hysterectomies?// thats the route you want to go faster recovery less invasinve...as for scaring you by saying he may ruptre bladder thats rotten and a ruptured bladder can be repaIRED.
Avatar f tn 2) Can both - fibroid / uterus and gall bladder be removed at the same time? How will it affect the recovery period? 3) What would be best option - total hysterectomy (uterus, cervix and fallopian tubes) or partial (uterus and fallopian tubes only)? 4) Can we wait till August to do the operation - doctor is worried about the statement - "Prominent flow voids seen along the anterior and posterior aspect of the fibroid suggesting increased vascularity" and degeneration in the middle.
Avatar f tn I agree with most things medical and otherwise helps to talk with someone who actually has been through it,,,,you will be able to offer lots of help to your friends who may have a hyster in the future but its one of those things you kinda have to go through to really get hpw hard it is and yet how hopefull it is also to end pain and other problems that cause the need for a hysterectomy..
Avatar n tn I was just wondering if anyone else has had this done and if you are willing to share your experience. Did it go well or was it horrible. Things that you had problems with. Problems in the future. Etc. I just really don't know what to expect. Also please let me know how long the recovery period was. My dr said she wants me off work for 4-6 weeks. That's a LONG time for the job that I do. Is that realistic or is my dr. just being overly cautious? By the way, I have a desk job.
Avatar m tn its been a week since I had a laprascopic total hysterectomy I feel pain from my bladder too.. tonight I have a major headache... can't wait to feel better!
Avatar f tn So has anyone had this done with the bladder tac, how long in the hospital, recovery, I dont want to be out of work more than 3 weeks. How is the pain?
Avatar f tn Hi - I will have a total hysterectomy anterior/posterior; rectocele and cystocele in less than ten days. What does all this mean, how long will I be in the hospital, and how long will recovery take, approximately? I know we're all different and circumstances will dictate the exact amounts, but if you have had these three procedures will you please share your story? What was it like before, and after? Tips and suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks for sharing!
1100598 tn?1413127426 He said that a full hysterectomy is not as necessary. But down the road, there is a chance of getting uterine or cervical cancer. I don't really want to have either surgery, but I refuse to go through chemo again. So now I don't know which surgery to have. The full hysterectomy or have just the tubes and ovaries removed? I have done some research and there are schools of thought leaning in both directions.
Avatar f tn Will a hysterectomy correct a prolapse bladder? My mother is in her 70's and constantly has to go to the restroom to urinate she also feels the bladder is fallen and complains about the discomfort she feels in it hanging.
1510783 tn?1290096307 usually you have a short hospital stay unless you have any health problems. i had to stay longer due to other health problems and a reaction to the anestesia. my pain wasnt as bad as everyone said it was going to be. i had a c-section in 92 so they went in through the same scar and did mine that way. like you i was nervous and we are about the same age.
442027 tn?1209866342 t mean all women will end up having problems. Before I had the hysterectomy I talked with countless women before I made up my mind and the majority of the women recommended the hyster. I am very glad I made the right choice and had the hyster because now I am pain free! It's a beautiful thing to live pain free and I suffered so many years with pain. Nina - have you tried using lubricant?
