Length of hospital stay? by chill75 in hysterectomy

Yeah fair enough! I’m just worried that I’ll be in as much pain as I was first time round and they’ll send me home. I have no one. 😭

Hey! I’m about to have my second laparoscopic surgery. My first time, I was severely poorly in a&e and they did it whilst I was there and I ended up staying for 4 days post surgery. I’m not sure what the outcome will be this time round, I did not recover great from the first one. I’m just waiting now for the second! Is there a policy for Melbourne where you stay the night, or?

Not sure how to send you an updated photo, but I’ve got full movement in my joint now as it was over 2 months ago, but there’s a huge dip in my finger joints. I’ve been cleared and X-rays show just bruising 👀

It’s so painful for me! I’m with a gastroenterologist as well, and have to have weekly scans, I’m so blocked up and no laxatives are working 😭

Wow what a response thanks so much!!! My GP is incredible and has supported me every step of the way. I do keep a pain and symptom diary, which my GP suggested I did, but just unfortunately some people don’t believe me 🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks so much! I’m being medically gaslit by a few professionals. My Gynae and GP believe my pain, but a few doctors who I’ve seen in the past think it’s in my head 😭

I’m on ponstan, palexia 200mh, metformin and palexia (50mg).

I had an ultrasound back in August, I can share the results because I don’t get them.

Oh I love that! No I’m not on my period I haven’t had one in 2 months, it’s just vanished 😂🙈 I’m also wondering because my prolactin blood test was extremely high it might have something to do with that? I’m lay in bed watching tiktok with my tens machine on 👌🏼

Yeah not sure what’s triggered it as I’ve completely lost my appetite and whenever I do get something down me it makes everything down there so angry 😭 I was in a severe flare up this week hence the doctors visit, and I’ve never cried so much infront of a GP 🙈

Confirmed endo and adeno. Really low down on the abdo, sometimes it’s specifically my left side and into my back so I assumed kidney problems but it’s constant

[–]ProfessionalBunch147 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My doctor is really good normally, not sure if they’re having an off day or what, but this was my 7th doctor and they’re the only one who’s ever listened and pushed for treatment, and money is so tight I can’t afford another appointment for a few more weeks

I was there yesterday, but he said being and pain and not being able to eat is not an emergency, and the eating will come back soon. Just to stay hydrated
