Hi @sam1108, I wish you and your grandmother successful surgery next week. @gynosaur42 wrote a detailed and inspired post here that you may wish to check out https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/894787/

I'm tagging a few additionaly gyne members who have had a hysterectomy like @rose53 @naturegirl5 @jjevitts @sbt19 @hlp123 @cheriels @cmb2022 and others. They can share tips about what your grandmother might expect and more importantly tips for you the caregiver. They can share things that others did for them that helped (or not) with recovery.

As an RN, I'm sure you have many tricks of the trade availability to you. But every procedure has its idosyncracies, don't they.
