I had the complete hysterectomy and several nodes removed on 1/9. I am feeling remarkably well. Since it was done robotically through 5 small incisions and removed vaginally, I didn’t take pain medication for more than 4 days. Then I moved to Tylenol for another 3-4 days. I haven’t had to have anything else. There is still a lot of fatigue and my other organs trying to sort themselves out to their new spots when I cough or laugh. I still have to restrict heavy lifting for a couple of weeks. However, I’ve been able to return to running our business and cooking meals. I can drive again. I’d say fatigue and moving or stretching wrong causes the most discomfort. Prayers that your Grandmother does well.
