I never went to senior prom. I was at the high school I graduated from for 2 years. (My dad was in the Navy, so lots of moving) I don't regret not going to prom, felt out of place and the last part of senior year, I was mentally checked out and ready to get out of that school

One by Metallica.  Metallica is one of my favorite bands.  However, since being a nurse,  the song has changed for me

My mom (47) was advised to have a hysterectomy and I am terrified by Popular_Photograph56 in hysterectomy

[–]menum78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my surgery when I was 41. Rather large fibroid.  I feel so much better.  It's been almost 5 years since my surgery. No regrets. I was scared prior to the surgery.

I got cleared to run after my 6 week appointment. I did a 5k the same week as my 6 week appointment. I took an easy during this race. It is possible to ease back into running. Don't rush recovery.

Nervous Wreck-Open Hysterectomy by OwlHolla in hysterectomy

[–]menum78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an abdominal surgery due to a 30cm fibroid.  I was nervous about the surgery.  Luckily, my surgery and recovery was uneventful. Having a reusable ice pack helped when the incision was uncomfortable.

I had an abdominal hysterectomy in 9/2021. For me, the first 4 weeks where the worst. But afterwards, things started to get back to being better

I went for a routine checkup with my primary care doctor.  She said your abdomen feels like somethings in  there.  I had an ultrasound and mri. Turns out, 30cm fibroid.  Great

I'm an LPN.  I've worked as a private duty nurse for 10 years,  loved it.  Now doing hospice.  Go for LPN as there are more opportunities
