Fever,rash,extreme Pain After Hysterectomy Posted: 05-12-05 08:40am
I am 28 years old and had to have a
hysterectomy on feb 10 of this year.I am
now 3 months post op.One week post op I
developed a fever and was put back in the
hospital.My wbc was 30,000.I was given iv
antibiotics for several days and sent
home.I conitued to have severe pain on my
lower side.I was told after the surgery
that I had extensive scar tissue growing
from my left ovarie and tube to the uterus
but a barrier had been put in to keep it
from growing back.
About 3 weeks post op I started having
hives all over my body,i have unexplained
bruising,i have now had fever for three
weeks straight.I am getting weaker and
weaker everyday.My body aches like I have
the flu.I have had large amounts of blood
in my urine since after the surgery.I have
seen several different doctors.I was told
last week that they thought it might be
lupus but when my blood work came back
although my sed rate was extremely
elevated my ana was negative.Go figure???
I have three small children all under the
age of six.My youngest has life
threatening health problems and I need to
get well to take care of them.Some days it
is all I can do to get a shower.I just
keep getting sent from one Dr.To another
without any avail.If anybody has any ideas
on what I should I do now please please
let me know. :( :(

Did they recheck your white blood count
after the antibiotics??
I know when great life changes take place
I always get hives.(some are whelty, some
are rashy, itch itch itch) and when it
comes to my inside organs being affected
by something or a foreign body being
introduced I get hives. Like when I had
a heart attack everytime I would have the
chest pains my body gives me hives, and
when they put stent into my major artery
in my heart I had hives for over a year.
Now, every time I get upset or have chest
pains hives all over again.
I remember getting a mri once and I had
the hives so bad I had to go to the
hospital and cortio-steroids to make my
body quit attacking itself. They shut
down my immune system, cuz thats what
causes them. Your body attacking
itself.
Seems too me though, something greater is
happening to you, it kinda worries me for
you. I know sometimes the dr's mean
well, but dont really understand what
"you" are going thru. Seems like you are
too worn down and other than some form of
'depressional state from the operation', I
think something else is going on. Keep
after them, I think something is wrong.
As you were writing it's like I stepped
right into where you are and felt the way
you are feeling, the emotional part I
mean, and I just believe something is
up.
Just keep at them, until you feel better I
mean
much love goes out to you and your
children
god bless you
