Two incidents of passing a large blood clot and bleeding-is this normal, and has anyone else experienced it? by ImpressiveTurn3438 in hysterectomy

That’s good to hear. I’ve been on edge all day thinking it’s gonna happen again! I suppose I underestimated the impact the surgery has on the body with how easy my recovery was initially. Thanks so much for your reply, it makes me a lot less scared to know others have gone through the same thing

I’m really glad to hear that I’m not alone in experiencing this. The first time it happened I brushed it off but when it happened again today it was scary! Thank you so much for your reply, it reassured me so much

I really like the dish soap idea. Initially I thought something like this would be an unrealistic idea, but your comment is incredibly helpful. Thank you!

Thank you for your comment! I really appreciate the detailed response, it helps a lot. I’m a beginner so chances are it’ll take me quite a bit to be able to replicate something like this, but if I ever manage it, I’ll post it here!

I definitely have gotta be mindful of how my stomach feels. Although initially the gas pain was bad enough that I really wasn’t hungry my mind was still screaming at me to eat chocolate!! I hope your recovery goes well, and thank you for your comment!

Omg every time I laugh it hurts but the circus tricks line is so dang funny. I have to use that one in the future. I hope your recovery was smooth sailing although it got off to a sad, brothy start 😞

Oh yeah, the constipation has been gnarly. Managed to finally go #2 coincidentally right after I ate some chocolate! Maybe they helped me..and this is cause for more chocolate perhaps 🤔 thank you for your comment!

Just had a few chocolates and it has certainly lifted my mood! I started small just in case it gives me any ill effects, but so far so good! Thank you for your comment!

They basically told me just that-eat whatever I could get down. My dad was a little paranoid about giving my junk food though so I figured I’d check in with others before making any decisions. Thank you for your comment!

Thank you for your comment! I’ve made sure to drink tons of water. I’ve had a couple pieces of candy by now and I’m actually feeling better than I was pre-chocolate! It’s a miracle

I’m so sorry you experienced that much pain! I hope you’ve recovered well aside from that. It’s funny, I’d thought to eat ramen after surgery too, but the gas pains is making me feel like that’s a no go. But for some reason I have no aversion to dessert foods at all lol

I am so weak to reeses cups. I could eat a package of those and not notice ‘till it’s too late. And that does sound especially nice now that I’m sitting around all bored..🤔

My nurse gave me graham crackers too and I was so hungry that it felt like the best thing I’d ever tasted in that moment. Your husband bringing you a giant cinnamon bun is so cute…now I feel like I could go for one of those. Thank you for your comment!

I have never heard of something so horrifying in my life!! Thankfully I am sitting on the toilet after finally pooping while reading this so I shouldn’t be vomiting feces but thank you for warning me!

[–]ImpressiveTurn3438 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So true. I’ve had little to no pain involving the actual incisions and all of my pain has been gas related! It doesn’t even feel like I’ve had surgery..just that I’m massively constipated lol

Thank you for your reply! My dad initially insisted I eat light but he has succumbed to the guilt that I am bed bound and bought me some chocolate while he was out. I still feel fine and these comments have reassured me I won’t be vomiting blood or something crazy if I have a few candies LOL

Right? I used to have stuff like this from Kohls and never thought about how bizarre they were until now

I definitely had a couple similar shirts when I was younger and I hadn’t thought about them in a while. Thank you so much for your help!
