I’m currently 9 weeks post excision and hysterectomy, I still feel uncomfortable a lot of the time and struggle to be in a seated position for long (working at a desk) sometimes I feel bloated again with some pain. I think it takes longer than we think it will to heal. I hope you start to feel better soon

It felt like FOREVER for me to heal. They said I could return to work and do as normal a week after my surgery. I was down 2 1/2 weeks and didn’t fully recover for a couple of months. It does get better!

I’m so sorry you’re having a rough time.. maybe ask about orilissa! Now it does cause a flare up the 1st week but after that it really starts working and I don’t have any side affects from it it either! I hate cysts so I feel your pain on this love! And yes my dr told me this week about how not to look at the 1st 3 cycles bc they will be the worst!! Sending love my endo sister!!
