She had the surgery Friday. She hasn't been so lucky for she has had some complications. First there is the hypertension and her high pulse rate. Then they did a CT on her, luckily no bleeding or clots. But the chest exray showed that she had phnemonia. If that wasnt enough they moved her to another unit to keep a better eye one her heart. Another CT was ordered and they thought that she had a bowel obstruction, which only turns out to be a kink, so , no surgery was needed for that.

Sounds great that you had (and have) such an upbeat and positive outlook.
Funny how you found solice in you and your dogs shared experience; perhaps it helped show how relative things are.
Anyway glad it went well and hope it all works out for you.
I have a question, you don't have to answer if it is to personal but how much did your hysterectomy cost?

@transcam619 Not too personal at all. I didn't pay out of pocket for my hysterectomy. It's covered where I live. In the US, I think the average cost is around $8-10K Dr. McGinn in PA charges $7500.

My mother has to have the abdominal full out surgery due to fibroid tumors. I just want to say thank you for your very upbeat video. It gives me an idea of what to expect.

The initial surgery itself was easier than I thought it would be. I didn't have abdominal surgery---that is more intense and your mother will have a longer healing period. Also, did you see my follow-up videos to this one? I ended up having a nasty complication that almost required additional surgery. Scary. Lastly, has your mom checked out the site HysterSisters[dot]com? It's a very good support site for women having hystos.

Thanks for the info. I went to the site you suggested and found it very helpful. Mom is due for her surgery this Friday and we are both a bit nervous at this time, so, any support or info we get is very appreciated.
