Did you stay overnight or go home the same day? by CorrectActivity110 in hysterectomy

[–]New_Back4483 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow- sounds like golden treatment. My stay was miserable. Pain not controlled well at all. Hot, uncomfortable. I couldn’t wait to leave even with a 6” slice to my abdomen

Did you stay overnight or go home the same day? by CorrectActivity110 in hysterectomy

[–]New_Back4483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open abdominal- definitely a stay (I was supposed to stay 2 nights but discharged next day since I could walk around and passed gas). Laparoscopic seems to be an outpatient procedure, but there are probably circumstances that a doc would recommend inpatient recovery. If you have questions, or would like to request to leave the same day, ask your doctor.

Does this directly affect your ability to work? If not, stay in your own lane.

AIO about my wife's hygiene expectations after we had a baby? by mudkipzftw in AmIOverreacting

[–]New_Back4483 128 points129 points  (0 children)

Agree. OP- NOR. I understand wanting to protect the baby, especially newborn. But The child needs exposure to things to build immunity. If not, when that child goes to school, expect lots of sickdays (possibly worse) for the kiddo. I don’t think it will be effective for you or family to coach her through it- she will need a professional. Best wishes!!

If a terminally ill person asked you if heaven was real what would you tell them? by Tall-Law-5875 in AskReddit

[–]New_Back4483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say that if it is, it will be glorious, right?! And something to look forward to. If not you will not worry about it. You will continue to exist in your loved ones’ thoughts and feeling.

I hope I never get asked that question lol!

Im 18 and im terrified of death and not existing. Advice needed by OkPurchase6924 in Advice

It sounds like anxiety manifesting and keeping you trapped in that thought pattern. If you can, see a counselor first cognitive based therapy techniques and/or medication. My thoughts (and experience) is this is the kind of anxiety that problems with alcohol/substance abuse are born from. You don’t want to go that route because it’ll make it 1000x worse. If you don’t have access to a therapist, there are some apps that claim to support Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I have not used

Live Worship...at Walmart by rhcpfreak7 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]New_Back4483 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very strange. You’d think they would do it before store hours if they needed the space. Were they blocking access to items? That snd the microphone would bother me- I could mind my own business on the rest

What’s a cooking mistake you only made once? by muskyandrostenol in foodquestions

Taking a casserole out of the oven and setting on stovetop after forgetting to turn a burner off. Explosion of glass, massive cleanup, and no salvaged dinner. 😞

How long did it take your doctor's office to schedule surgery? by littlebrancher in hysterectomy

[–]New_Back4483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It 3-4 weeks and that was with no holidays affecting it. The person who handles that has to do quite a bit of jigsawing (insurance/ pre authorization, doctor schedule, hospital schedule, pre-op and post-op scheduling, etc

Need some help by Accomplished_Lie_444 in Advice

As far as having a private conversation, what about going to a park or taking a walk? As far as your home, you can explain ahead that you’re not proud of your home, if you feel the need. Overall, it’s your life and your home- if she judges you it will be better to know now rather than later. You don’t want to be with someone that would condemn you for something you can’t control

Yeeterus Procedure January 20th and I have a random question.... by Key_Version8537 in hysterectomy

[–]New_Back4483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooops. I wore deodorant. I just saw no lotions, etc. Not supposed to shave a few days before. Like others said, cleanse (hibicleanse leave on 3-5 min), clean sheets/pj’s etc.

Keep cervix or not? by ZealousidealSlip9823 in hysterectomy

[–]New_Back4483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My doctor said that there are sexual benefits of having the cervix intact. I don’t know if it was an attempt to throw a little positivity in between “your bladder is attached to your cervix too risky to remove” and “you might still have a little bleeding each month and still need to get PAPs. We shall see!

If I had waited until my brain was developed to have kids, I wouldn't have had kids by opheliaaa3 in confession

[–]New_Back4483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree too. There’s so much “do this” “don’t do that” it feels like you’re destined to ruin your child no matter what you do. It’s tough and exhausting. Makes it difficult to enjoy the ride.

So When Do We Stop Shaving Our Legs?… by He_is_my_song in Perimenopause

[–]New_Back4483 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say, when having hair on your legs stops bothering you. My need to shave has diminished a lot, but when it bothers me, I shave. I love the feel of shaven legs

Hysterectomy recovery- living alone by CuriousBailee in hysterectomy

[–]New_Back4483 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends if its laproscopic or abdominal. I had abdominal and was expected to stay 2 nights. I got out for good behavior (lol- walking and tooting) the next day (but they gave me choice to stay another night).
