May 2017. Robotic hysterectomy, bladder mesh, vaginal mesh n vaginal repair. I understood about the material but found I am a slow healer. I only wish that Mayo would have a patient developed brochure that explains some of the issues that may be encountered. Like the 7th day crash...feeling hungry but nauesish...emotional...hot n cold ... sutures inside of the navel n the navel being irritated. Sutures that would or may be very slow in dissolving. It's been nearly three months and I still have internal vaginal sutures that will eventually dissolve. But still and finally what underwear do you wear because every scar is at a different level. They should find a pair that's just right (brief jockey cotton that doesn't have a waist band finally after many tries) and send you home with a pair or recommended pair. With this type of patient brochure it would probably save them a number of nurse and doctor phone calls. Just saying sometimes patients who have been there and done that could be very helpful.
