Scared 4 Weeks Post Op And New Bleeding And Pain Posted: 07-12-05 08:00am
I am 4 weeks post op from a tah for
endometrosis and had complications in the
hospital. I ended up with severe bruising
over 4 feet on left side of my stomach
around my back and down my legs. The dr
told me it was positioning in the or I
have never heard of that . Then I had to
have 2 transufussions I had my hct drop
from 40 to 9 and was told they have no
clue why as my total blood loss in the or
was 200cc. I then had a bladder
infection.
I was finally doing a tad bit better and
now had severe pain in my flank area on
the left side and am bleeding like a
period . I called the dr and they told me
this is part of healing. Have any of you
felt like this at 4 weeks.
Also should I ask for an u/s just to be
sure everything is ok ?

I think that it is all of our
responsiblity to make sure that we are
okay. Especially since only you know what
is wrong with ya. I know that I had the
surgery a little over 4 mths ago, and
within the last 6 weeks I have bleed 4
times, and they are trying to tell me its
normal, although my family dr is saying
that it doesnt sound right. I have all
the normal problems bleeding and cramping
although my surgery included the removal
of the ovaries and the uteras....So why am
I bleeding. Dont know yet. Although I am
going to find out. Sometimes you just
need a 2nd opinion.
