ccd, a very dear friend of
ccd, a very dear friend of mine who is, oh, around 60, just had her uterus removed and she is doing great. The incision bothers her since she is still very large after losing nearly 100 pounds and the lower abdominal skin sort of flops over it. But she took the pain meds one day and after that only regular Tylenol. Constipation was her motivation to get off them. She hasn't been released to drive yet and, since she lives alone, that bugs her. Gives her friends a chance to step in! Anyway, if a hysterectomy gives you peace of mind, I hope you can find the strength of spirit to do it. Sooner or later.

Is this the best recommendation of your oncologist? If you trust him, then you should do what he says in order for you to stay healthy. Let us know.
