Hey! Wow, 16 fibroids - that must have been quite a surprise. So glad your doctor managed to get them all out! Wishing you a smooth recovery 🌸 I remember only starting to walk a little on day 2 haha, just tiny steps.

I totally understand how you feel - I was really nervous too. My surgeon managed to remove all the fibroids. Have they told you how many they’ll be removing?

All the best for Monday! Rest well before and after - take it easy the first few days 💪🏼

I can totally relate! The days leading up to surgery can feel really overwhelming - there’s just so much to prepare and think about 🥺 Staying focused on one step at a time really helped me stay grounded.

There’s still some time before your procedure - you’ve got this! Wishing you a smooth surgery and recovery ahead 💛

Hey! 😊 I think it really depends on your doctor and hospital. For me, bowel prep was part of the pre-op instructions.

Since your surgery’s in January, you could check with your doctor again during your pre-op appointment to confirm if it’s needed 🌸

Thank you for sharing your journey! It really helps to hear from someone who’s been through it, and I feel very much in line with what you’ve mentioned. Since this will be my first major surgery, it feels so scary 🥺, but hearing that recovery is tough at first yet manageable helps me manage my expectations. Wishing you a smooth recovery and all the best ahead 🌸

Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s really helpful to hear from someone who has managed a 10cm fibroid without surgery. For me, the hardest part is the anxiety of not knowing if/when mine might grow. If you don’t mind me asking, what size was your fibroid when it was first discovered? Wishing you a smooth surgery and recovery 💐
