			<description><![CDATA[ I had partial vag hyst on Aug 5 and I am having slight lower back pain. It&#39;s not horrible...i can tolerate it...it&#39;s just a little uncomfortable and
only when I am up and around for a while. I ended up with a cuff infection (where they removed and stitched the cervix) and I thought it may be from
that....but who knows. I did a search for lower back pain and realized it seems to be common. I had a tummy tuck in Sept and did a 100 mile bike ride in
June...so my abs are in great shape so... ]]></description>

about 9-10months ago my mother had a total hysterectomy (ovaries removed) at the age of 48, for alittle over a month she couldnt barely eat or drink because of

			<description><![CDATA[ I just started this journey and I have found that there seems to be a lot of choices. So far the doctor that I have seen has told me that Laparoscopic-assisted Vaginal (LAVH) is what I should have. Leave the ovaries and take my uterus and cervix. (I am going to get a second and third opinion) Then I look on line and others say that the Total Abdominal or &quot;traditional&quot; is the best? I have uterine prolapse on top of other issues. I don't really care much if I have a scar. Anyone, have... ]]></description>

			<link>http://hysterhome.yuku.com/topic/1663/t/hysterectomy-question-.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I had a complete hysterectomy on Oct. 1. I had my uterus and ovaries removed because I had 2 bigger than baseball size tumors and some smaller ones removed. For about the past 8 weeks it feels like I have a tampon in and it's ready to fall out. I've also had a pain on the left side of my incision that feels like I have a burning knife stuck in me. Any idea what can cause this? I am 48 years old and I didn't have any problems before I had this. ]]></description>

I'm 46 and never had problem periods, never had an abnormal pap. I've been post menoupause for about 2 years.<br>I'm pretty good about getting my pap test every year. This last one was about 6 months late due to me moving out of state. So I went to a new ob/gyn and during the exam she asked if I was ever told I had fibroids. No I hadn't. She looked concerned and said I had a mass... ]]></description>

I still have my right ovary......she took everything else out. <br>My pain is getting better every day. I have some bruising around the incision. Is this normal?

My doctor just shrugged it off saying he didn't know what it was. <br>Anyone else having the same experience? My surgery was done through my abdomen leaving me with a 7 inch scar. At first I thought it was just healing, but the itching is everywhere on my abdomen and hips...not just around the incision. ]]></description>
