Anybody Else Have These Problems Posted: 04-03-06 10:04am
I had a partial hysterectomy on 3/16/2006
still have my cervix and ovaries but, have
have a urinary infection, bacterial
infection and my bowels do not move
without using something. Eating solid
food is sometimes is a joke a couple hours
after eating my left side hurts. Have
told doctors have had numerous ct scans
and barium scans all what they consider
normal(small pockets of fluid in bowels
one left side one right side). I'm
beginning to think this was the worst
decision of my life. At this point I
really don't want any more surgery. Has
anyone else ever had this many problems?
I'm only 42 i'd kinda of like to enjoy my
life again. I'm getting tired of the
endless doctors visists and tests and
nothing seems to be working to make me
feel better.

Re: Bowel Probs Post Hysterectomy Posted: 04-05-06 19:27pm
Hi there, sorry to hear about your
problems. I understand I had a subtotal
hysterectomy almost 4 years ago and I to
have constant stomache pains(bowel) almost
every day, sometimes I can feel my
stomache ready to play up when im cooking
my meals. Everytime I get test's done the
results come back normal. It is totally
frustrating isnt it.Im 26. All I can say
it that I hope we finally get some
answers. Good luck :)

Po Hysterectomy Bowel Problems Posted: 04-27-06 15:30pm
I can relate in the opposite direction.
I now have bm all of the time compared to
having to carefully monitor diet pre-op.
I also have frequency to urinate, fever,
infection according to blood work, severe
pain , and the docs don't give a honest
eal second glance. Pile that with having
to move, go through separation , raise two
boys, was discharged after only 24hrs, and
no one to help. Keep me posted. I
thought this was just the way it is. I
wish all of us luck, in and of the fact
all I ever heard was,"oh you should have a
hyesterectomy, it's the bes thing that
will happen for you!" I sure hope not :(

Just wondering if anyone can help me...??? Posted: 02-08-08 01:20am
I just underwent a hysterectomy4 days ago
(Feb.4,2008) I am having extreme abdomal
pain and I ahve been unable to have a bowl
movement since the day before surgery... I
have since drank an oral fleet and all
that kinda stuff and I ws wondering what
could be happening and what will happen
inside if I dont have one soon? The pain
is really bad and I have a hard lump
feeling in my stomach but I cant go. What
can happen to my bowels if I dont go? I am
on antibotics already cause they think I
ham getting an infection in my incision.
Could anyone let me know if they have had
these kinda problems too...? I am get a
little worried. Thanks, and hope to here
from someone soon.

Probs with bowels Posted: 03-04-08 20:51pm
I have to agree with the person who said
that they are the opposite. I had partial,
and later found that I had endometriosis
removed from behind the uterus as well.
Docs dont give an eel as you mentioned. I
have frequent bowel movements, and
sometimes i get to the point of not being
able to control them. It frightens me.
I have been treated now twice for urinary
infections. First i was put on flagyl and
cipro, now just cipro. So i dont know
whats going on.
Its been 7 weeks since my partial vag.
The docs discourage me, and say I should
be back at work. I feel like Hell, and
dont think I can manage going back to
work, where i am the activity person for
32 alzheimer's patients. It just doesnt
make sense.
I agree some docs, just fluff it off. My
surgeon, shook my hand, and let me out of
his room, after i disclosed probs with my
bowels. He said surgery and the bowels are
not connected. YA RIGHT. oh, and because
i abused laxatives over 10 years ago, that
is on my chart, and of course that is
another reason why I wont be considered
serious regarding these concerns.
