I just had a hysterectomy and not to scare you but it hurts bad. I had 30 staples on my belly and I could'nt do anything because it hurt so much. It hurts when you cough,sneeze, go to the bathroom but in time you will feel better. I had my hysterectomy on dec 16 and it is now dec31 and I am still having pain and can't do very much but I got my staples out which also hurts and they put steri strips on my belly. You will be put on pain meds and you will sleep a lot. Just remember to take it easy for 6 weeks. Everything will be ok. I have endometriosis and had ovarian cysts to. But my doctor told me having a hysterectomy will not get rid of endo it will still grow inside. He said it could even grow on your organs. It is a disease that is always with you.
