Thank you for replying back. Glad your recovery went easy for you, Did you end up having the minor surgery or a hysterectomy? I have never had any surgery. I was told no picking up anything over 10 lbs. did you have trouble going up and down steps?

Hello I had a radical hysterectomy (uterus, cervix, tubes etc ) removed. Sentinel lymph nodes mapped. All robotic assisted. No problem with steps. I did adhere to the 10 lbs weight restriction. Never needed any pain meds beyond ibuprofen and acetaminophen. My surgeon had me alternate between the two and after three days didn’t even need those. The robotic assisted really makes a difference in terms of recovery. I was able to go back to work after two weeks but my job is mire sedentary. Take care
