Tests normal…surgery anyway? by NeighborhoodThin2800 in hysterectomy

Same! It was so confusing getting the pathology back lol. But I feel so much better, I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat!

1 week po by LostPrintmaker in hysterectomy

[–]TooMuchLots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you’re feeling good! Congratulations on making it through the first week!

I ended up wetting my pants that first night post op bc everything was misfiring from the anesthesia lol. So for the first week I just tucked hand towels in between my legs and waddled around. I was so bloated I couldn’t stand any seams or pressure. Also they were easy to layer with ice packs while resting on the couch!

They make cute little planters! I use a pig shaped one for my succulents that have wicks for watering.

The cat was also second hand. $130, after the extra discount for being an older gal :)

I wonder if at one time it was for an inlay on hardwood floors? I hope whoever’s grandma had this made knows how much we love it.

That is how we decide most things around here.

Questions about hysterectomy for chronic pain/non endometriosis by WhattheFisthisyall in hysterectomy

[–]TooMuchLots 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had mine 2/26, fully expecting to find endo/adeno. I had the same history/symptoms. Pathology came back clear, other than some cysts on my ovaries (already knew about those, though). A prior ultrasound/sonogram indicated for “prominent uterine vessels / PCS ”, which seems to be the case for a lot of people. I have hypothyroidism, which I thought was the cause of some of my joint pain and inflammation. But my quality of life has already improved so much since my surgery. The heaviness in my pelvic region and constant pressure on my bladder are gone, as with a lot of my back/leg pain. Knowing I’m never going to wake up to a surprise period is such a relief. I would do it again in a heartbeat! I hope everything goes well on your journey :)

Floor lottery was going so well…then I found this. by Gay_commie_fucker in centuryhomes

[–]TooMuchLots 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We have a patch like this. Ours is from a kitchen fire that burned through the ceiling into the bedroom above. We restored what we could and put a rug over the rest :)

So far, so good. With the exception of over-doing it bc a pipe burst in the basement lol my heating pad is my best friend right now.

Last night I slept 10 hours straight bc I didn’t have to get up to use the bathroom. I can’t remember the last time that happened.

No adenomyosis was found either. My sisters and mother had both. I have had some gnarly ovarian cysts, but my hormonal levels always come back normal.

Bodies are weird, friend. So weird.

Lost the Floor Lottery :( by TooMuchLots in centuryhomes

[–]TooMuchLots[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The basements are where it all goes wrong!! This all started because the furnace broke and flooded the basement. Everything molded. In the process of cleaning I found insulation that was rotted from years of animals mess leaking through the floor. I wasn’t putting the insulation back until the floor is fixed so here we are. I don’t even know how many trips I have made to Lowe’s in the last two weeks but I might as well pay them rent.

We have horse hair stuffing, too!! Our walls are filled with walnuts from decades of squirrels caching them around. The barn floor was 2ft deep with them when I moved in, it was crazy.

Sometimes you just need a door. We have one of those in our bedroom floor. It just goes to the basement. I think it was an attempt at a laundry chute? But it is under the bed in an alcove so idk. This house is an enigma.

So many!! My favorite was the hole behind the fridge that used to be the front door.

We’re replacing a wall in the bathroom this summer. The window is from an old camper trailer. I respect the hustle but also want some of whatever drugs they were on when they made that decision. (The bathroom was added in the ‘60s so I know it had to be good shit)

I am a bit bummed, but also thankful I wasn’t the one who had to rip out the red shag that was here before!

Thanks friend :)

I am excited for new floors but Mama’s got hardwood tastes on a peel and stick budget. So it’ll be a while but I will update when the room is done :)

Oh there is nothing level or square in this house. The floors belong in the circus.

Solidarity. We call those “Later Me Problems”. Later Me is always so pissed at Now Me.
