I had a robotic lap surgery. I had to have everything taken' date=' right down to the lymph nodes due to my precancerous state. The problems I'm having isn't from the hysterectomy itself, but improper placement of the catheter. The tried to replace it 3 times to no avail :'-( so right now I am able to go off antibiotics for a week and then I get the pain in my bladder and a UTI. It is ridiculous. I have a cystoscopy set up for next Friday. The will have a looksy into my bladder to see what damage was done. Hopefully nothing major. If its permanent, lawsuit will be coming around.

Also, if you can postpone til after finals, that would be better. You will need 2-3 weeks and that is w the robot assisted laparoscopic surgery. You'll have the gassiness again, ugh. Plus for me it was heck of a lot more painful than the RNY. Probably due to complications.

Just tell them to make sure they place catheter properly. Good luck. I will have you in my thoughts!!!

Thank you. I already warned my teachers the following week I will be there but I will be drugged up and will only stay an hour not the whole 3. My gallbladder surgery was worst then my rny too so I am scared of this one. I had my gallbladder surgery in December and just as two weeks ago I am able to lay in my left side without the pulling feeling inside

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
