1931832 tn?1398880449 I had undergone Total Abdominal Hysterectomy last April 2012. And then after a month, I felt back pain. I thought it was the after effect of drugs during the procedure...as days went on, my knees had the same too..I went to see my OB and required blood tests for Potassium and Uric, it was found Negative, and immediately prescribed Difenax for pain, it helped though, but I had to see an Orthopedic Surgeon for proper evaluation. Undergo series of x-rays for my knees.
Avatar f tn I have no answer, but I sympathize. I have had no end of low back and knee pain since my hysterectomy. I was fine before my surgery. Now I'm messed up and want answers as to the cause and what solutions there are, if any. Hope you find the help you need with your problems.
Avatar f tn I understand that positions patients are placed in during surgery can sometimes result in this type of issue, so I was not too concerned. However, about 5 weeks after the surgery I began to experience burning feet. The shooting pain had just resolved when I began feeling this burning pain to my bilateral feet. Approx. 2 weeks later, my left calf went numb. After approx 3-4 days this began to resolves but not entirely.

Avatar m tn I had a total abdomen hysterectomy July 17 2014. After surgery I blew up like a balloon all over. I was so distended I couldn't move. Next day my palms were white and was told I was bleeding internally. I got four blood transfusions. Then I was given another catheter and LASIK because I now had fluid on my lungs and my oxygen was low and had trouble breathing. Then I had degenerative heart failure and had a heart moniter for 3 or 4 days.
888637 tn?1241034907 I am desperately looking for a doctor in Syracuse, NY who can help immediately so I don't undergo an unwanted hysterectomy. I've had pain and heavy bleeding with no known cause since I was 20. I'm now 34. At age 29 two different doctors said it was endometriosis. I was dutiful, did the Lupron for six months, started on continued birth control pills to avoid having a period. It felt better without a period and heavy bleeding. But unfortunately, the pains came back.
Avatar f tn //www.verywellhealth.com/endometriosis-after-hysterectomy-3156908 - a summary of the study https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4286861/ - the actual study Obviously, there are a dozen (or more) other things that could be causing this pain, and the "migrating" pain could be radiating pain, which starts in one place, but travels to another, most often along a nerve path. I hope you get some answers! Let us know.
1481509 tn?1287614693 Dear chuwwy63, I have suffered groin pain for the past two years after having a hysterectomy. After seeing several doctors including a neurolgist who said they don't know. I have been doing research on the internet and found this website with the answer. I'm not sure at this point if I would take the chance of another operation but it does explain the reason for our pain. Go on the web to - www.NCBI.nlm.nih.
Avatar m tn I had a partial Hysterectomy and two weeks after I've been having alot of pain on the leftside of my abdomen and my back. The pain doesn't go away even with narcotic medicines and the doctor says everything looks fine. Also when i get up and start walking the pain gets worse and worse. The only time it doesn't hurt that much is when I'm laying down. Also I feel on my left leg because the pain is so bad. Need answers please.
Avatar m tn When I came off pain meds after the knee surgery, my shoulder and neck began to hurt. Did lots of PT and massage and chiropractic care and finally had shoulder surgery for a SLAP lesion and floating bone fragments. Because my neck hurt so much also, had an MRI on that with the shoulder surgeon. He said I had thyroid nodules, one particularly large. They biopsied the small one that seemed hard and it came back benign.
Avatar f tn My gyne told me the cyst is too small to cause this pain. It is only in the lower right side, and the pain radiates down to my knee. My period is quite heavy too. I am getting worried its something more. Does anyone else experience pain like this from a small cyst?
Avatar f tn I think the recovery is going as expected and well-- I stopped pain meds Weds evening -- the surgery is great, the side effect are what are bad--bloating, gas pain (lessening as time goes), bowel pain and lack of movements. I again have a call into the dr for the dizziness....I drink copius amounts of water, walk and even get out so my circulation does well. What can be done for the dizziness. Any "magic" pill I can take....
Avatar f tn I had my right knee TKR in June 2010, I cannot recall what the pain was pre-op, but I do know that it is very bad and has been since surgery. I have fairly good function with the knee and am able to do the work I love (I would be very depressed to lose that) but work is the whole of my life as it HURTS during the work day and it takes the rest of my day to 'recover' somewhat. I have pain in the night quite often and pain upon waking.
Avatar f tn Back pain after hysterectomy seems to be common. Surgical positioning can cause it. I hope it doesn't last long!
Avatar m tn My surgeon believed that the pelvic adhesions were the cause of the horrific pain I was experiencing. I was fine for approx 3 years after my hysterectomy when the cramping and back pain returned with a vengeance. I was refereed to a surgeon who specializes in removing pelvic adhesion via key hole surgery. Had this op in 2010 and felt like a new woman after a 3 week recovery period...no cramping or back pain and a fantastic quality of life!!! Fast forward 18 months later and the pain was back.

Avatar n tn Either she has great pain in her stomach and then goes to stool every 1 hour (wherein the pain aggravates) or she vomits the food (twice in 4 days). Thus she cannot keep anything in her stomach. What seems to be the problem? Is this any particular complication of hysterectomy? Please help.
Avatar f tn I hate to read you are suffering. A knee replacement is suppose to improve your function and it does not sound like that has been your experience. Have you talked to your doctor about your symptoms? Has he/she given you any feedback? I have not had a knee replaced but hope someone here who has will write to you. You might also post in the orthopedics forum as I know they talk about joint replacements there as well.
