Hysterectomy Recovery Days 1-7 Post Op ⭐ Honest Daily Updates // Treating Adenomyosis

[@Nisestory]

I had the same hysterectomy surgery but with 4 additional for cyst , bladder repair (mesh), clean up from an ectopic pregnancy10 yrs ago, vaginal repair . It really hurts to walk. I’m now 5 days post op. I loved my doctor. Dr. Moore Atlanta was the best. Very caring. I feel like I’m getting apart of my life back. Just grateful

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

My goodness you had a lot done! No wonder you are so sore but I am SO HAPPY that you are over the hurdle of getting it done and on your recovery journey and getting your life back!!! Wishing you the best as you recover and I hope you get lots of relief 💜

[@ddcjenn]

Great video! My surgery is scheduled in 4 weeks - I have adenomyosis and suspected endometriosis so it’s super helpful seeing to us recovery to get an idea of my own potential recovery.

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

I'm so glad you found my video helpful!! Wishing you the best for your surgery and recovery 💜

[@lizb111]

I have my hysterectomy in 2 weeks, watching lots of videos to get an idea of what to expect and things I should prepare for, thanks for being so open and honest with your experience, so helpful!

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

I'm so happy to hear you've found my videos helpful as you prepare for surgery! Hope your surgery goes well and that you get lots of relief! Wishing you the best as you recover 💜

Try not to do to much at one time. When I had my Gastric Sleeve surgery it was about ten weeks out when I really felt better. I know it's not the same surgery. Take care. Love You Dad.

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

Thanks for the advice! That definitely helps with managing expectations 💕

[@andreablower1711]

Hey, hope your doing well 1 yr on. I had my hysterectomy, leaving overaies 5 days ago and scrolling through video's to she how others were. Im in the UK and its pretty different, like where insertions are, no binder thing and just plasters and i have to inject myself daily with blood thinners and wear supportive socks. Im doing little 10 - 20 minute walks hoping im not.doing too much, probably back to my office work job next week as i feel good. Hope to hear your progress x

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

That's very interesting how things are done so differently there. Hope your recovery is going well! I'm about 1 year 9 months post op and still seeing progress in my recovery and getting stronger still. My good days are really good and my flare days aren't as bad as they used to be (although they definitely still suck lol)

[@djpipkin]

Even the energy of your videos increase as you go along! Glad to see it

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

[@CapricornQueen80]

I'm seriously considering doing this. Side not what color green is that on the walls. They did an amazing job with the incisions.

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

I've definitely had a lot of improvement since getting it done 😊 And I'm not sure exactly what color the walls are (they were painted when we moved in) but some kind of hunter green

[@denisehitchens1418]

You look so young ....get well my dear

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

Thank you! I'm a little over 2 years into recovery now and feel so much better! I'm still chronically ill, but at least I am no where near as sick as I was before surgery. I was 26 at the time of that video but easily looked like a teenager because of how sick and underweight I was. Sickness and chronic illnesses do not discrimate based on age. I was around 22/23 when I started getting sick

[@idenisseventura5054]

She does look so young, and she is so pretty! Thanks for sharing the video, I have a surgery coming up and this helps a lot. @morrigansmagikalmakings

My hysterectomy for adenomyosis and endo was just cancelled because insurance won’t pay for me to go to an excision specialist. I have suspected bowel and bladder involvement and I’m scared to go to a regular Gyno (my first surgery went horrible) so I’m trying really hard to get insurance to approve what I need (it’s been 2.5 years of fighting) so if you have any tips pls send my way. ❤️ these videos are SO helpful for me. My biggest symptom besides pain is vomiting at least 1-2x a day sometimes for many days in a row so I’m suspecting my recovery will be similar. I’m sick of being sick. All the time. Throwing up sucks. Being nauseous 24/7 sucks. As you know. But pain is poopy too but I’d rather deal w that than nausea.

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

Ugh I really hate that you're going through this (both the insurance stuff and being sick)! I understand how devastating that must've been to find out your insurance won't cover it... Insurance is such a pain in the butt and makes you jump through hoops sometimes. I understand not wanting a regular gyno to do your surgery since most are not aware of all the nuances of endo/ adeno, but maybe if you go to one and then ask them for a referral for a specialist and explain to them you would be more comfortable with a specialist doing surgery then maybe insurance would cover. You could try calling your insurance to ask them what exactly you would need to do to get it approved but I know insurance companies aren't exactly known for their helpfulness... I really hope you can get it figured out soon! My nausea and vomiting got worse with time where it started occasional then got to the point it was multiple times every day for months and I was wasting away so I definitely understand how awful that is. Although I still have some pain now, I can finally put my life back together since the nausea/ puking stopped a few months into recovery. I'm so happy you find my videos helpful! I really hope you are able to get your situation figured out. Being sick sucks enough without insurance causing more problems! Wishing you the best 💜

[@Nisestory]

Try Dr. Moore (gyno) Atlanta If you’re near there. Maybe they can help. He’s no regular gynecologist and accepts Medicaid. He only does operative.

[@lemir3559]

How are you doing? I just had a hysterectomy and endo clean up. I'm physically I'm ok. But mentally I'm a wreck.

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

I'm doing much better now! I'm about a year and 3 months post op and do still have pain and other things that are probably related to a different condition but I'm so much better than I was before surgery. The first couple months after were a bit of a rollercoaster for me mentally but that settled down. I think part of that was from the transition from hormonal birth control to none for me at least. Hopefully your mental state will get better with a bit of time! Wishing you the best as you recover 💜

[@lisagreenspan7658]

I just had mine a couple days ago and was wondering if I could resume cannabis use

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

Well I am not a doctor or expert so I can't say for certain. I personally did resume use within a few days after surgery, but if you're unsure, ask your doctor. Wishing you the best during your recovery 💜

Day 4... feeling better

Was your surgery laparoscopic or Davinci. You don’t even look like you had surgery, I’m praying for the same recovery

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

Laparoscopic. I had 3 small incisions on my lower abdomen plus one in my belly button. Expect the first couple months to be a bit up and down and unpredictable. Recovery is a slow process but gets better with time. Wishing you the best 💜

I wish I bought myself a binder for recovery

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

It was definitely super helpful for the first few weeks. I got sent home with mine from the hospital

[@smaks1031]

How is your back pain now a year later?

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

It's a lot better but always there still. It used to be debilitating like sitting upright in a chair was excruciating but now I can go about life relatively normally. Sometimes the pain flares but overall it is relatively bearable now.

[@fatimamansoori7072]

How you bent yourself day 1? And how you put tummy support the first day???!!!😳😳😳 this is impossible 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

The hospital put the binder on me before I was awake from surgery and I didn't take it off for the first time until the next day. I didn't have trouble putting it back on though. My binder was really long so there was plenty of fabric to adjust. Maybe your binder was too small if you were having trouble. I'm not sure what you mean in your first question.

[@atelierstardust5778]

I wonder where you had surgery and also what kind of endo surgery. Did they take part of your colon out or ureterer ? Thank you for sharing 💖

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

I had surgery at Mercy in Baltimore, MD. I had excision surgery done and ended up having pelvic adhesions but not endo (and I had adenomyosis in my uterus). I did not have any of my colon or ureter removed. You can check out my pathology results video where I go over what I had done. Thanks for watching 💜

Take a banana/ strawberry smoothie. Helps with constipation. You will have rectal pain,pressure. Gas bloating is a coming to Jesus mind blowing pain

[@morrigansmagikalmakings]

That is great advice! The gas pain/ bloating is miserable! I think it took me like a month to fully deflate but the first couple weeks of it were rough. Hoping your pain gets better soon!

Pain meds aren't working
