Success! I Survived Another Hysteroscopic Myomectomy

My most recent surgery was a success, :smile: but I am in PAIN! Apparently they didn't adjust the stirrups for my long legs. So my upper, inner thighs are very sore. :mad: Last night I put some of my moms menthol scented arthiritis creme on my thighs, and I put my hot water bottle on my belly. Isn't that a lovely mental image.:tongue:

My abdomen feels like I was run over by a Jeep or maybe a small pick-up truck? Doesn't matter which way I turn I can't get comfortable sitting, standing, or lying down. :cry: I was puzzled by this as the hysteroscopic myomectomy I had in May was virtually painless. The only reason I stayed in bed for 3 days then was so I could read romance novels and have mom bring me food and pamper me. :redface:

Turns out with each procedure they do, the more fragile the uterus can become. :frown1: Plus there are adhesions from my previous surgeries, I should have known that.

Apparently in addition to the uterine fibroid, I had a ruptured cervical cyst, a portion of which had become lodged inside me. :biggrin1: I swear I am a walking medical disaster area. :frown1: :irked: Fortunately, I have no internal stitches, they were able to remove that stuff and cauterize the area.

I hope you get to feeling better, NJ. Did they give you any good painkillers?[/QUOTE] No, they did not and I am pissed! :mad: Last time I got Tylenol with Codeine. This time all I got was 800 mg Motrin pills. I have been alternating them.
 
That's ridiculous! After surgery on your private parts? If you aren't getting relief you should tell them it's not working and demand some oxycodone.

I still have some Tylenol with codeine left over from the May surgery. :biggrin1: Hence me being annoyed but not really complaining.
 
Sorry to hear that you're so uncomfortable right now but, I'm glad everything went well!
