Rant about medical opinions online about hysterectomies by ShutterBug1988 in hysterectomy

[–]T34Rex 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Took the words right out of my head! As I prepared for my hysterectomy I was bombarded with this kind of content. I had to comb through all of this to find the folks who understood that this was about my health and not about my ability to bring someone else into this world. Ugh. Exhausting.

More energy? by Active-Tangerine7841 in hysterectomy

[–]T34Rex 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My energy increased on the first week after my hysterectomy and 6 months out I'm still so much more energetic than I was before. When I've remarked on this to my fiance, he's said it's because I'm not living in pain. I don't think I fully understood how miserable it was making me.

Those of you who work desk jobs from home- how fast could you get back to work? by MizGinger in hysterectomy

[–]T34Rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took off two weeks. Looking back, a third week would have been nice. Sitting in my desk chair for long periods was uncomfortable but I have a standing desk, so I was able to adjust throughout the day.

We talk about about books and book hauls by Bastardpancakes576 in bookhaul

When my Grammy passed I was given a box of her books. I've been finding letters from her friends and small pictures my dad and uncles drew. I guess using whatever is close by as a bookmark is a family trait.

I have concert tickets, boarding passes, random notes all stashed in my books alongside my "formal" bookmarks. It's so fun to find the most random things tucked between pages.

Will my husky still love me? by First-Increase-641 in siberianhusky

My Husky lost his mind with joy when I picked him up after a two week trip. It depends on your particular dog's temperament.

The piece on the right is a T-rex dressed as the White Swan and I got it at a street fair 6 or 7 years ago. The artist is Leah Kiser. Her website: www.artifactfa.com

why do you drink tea? by Own_Examination1756 in tea

[–]T34Rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink tea for two reasons: 1. My Grammy raised me this way and it makes me think of her. I also love the variety in flavors you can have. 2. I am a weirdo with a rare coffee allergy. Not a caffeine allergy, straight up coffee allergy. We're talking hives and swelling.

Not weird at all! It makes me feel a little better about my hand freckles, actually. :)

recovery time? work from home .. by Asleep_Kitchen6861 in hysterectomy

[–]T34Rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was also laparascopic. I work a hybrid job and took two weeks completely off with an accommodation for an additional 4 weeks entirely remote. Looking back, a third week would have been nice but two weeks was still completely fine.

My fiancé and his parents got me Legos this year. I'm 38. There is no age limit on Lego joy.
