I am not scheduled for surgery yet but I have to get a hysterectomy after my bypass. I don't know how long it'll be in between but soon I'm sure. I have cysts the size of tennis balls on my ovaries but both gyno and bypass surgeon it's better for me to wait until after bypass. I'm in tons of pain. I don't know what to do or who to ask.

I had a hysterectomy in October 2013 and seriously best decision I ever made. You do have to rest quite a bit, so it would seem right to have it after the bypass. I got a ton of information and support from a forum similar to this one called Hystersisters. Highly recommend it. All kinds of great info. Good luck!

I had a hysterectomy this past August, was told I needed to wait about 3 months between surgeries.

Had a hysterectomy in September of 2013. Just had my RNY this month. (February 2015)

Personally, 3 months seems short between surgeries. I would wait at least 6 months to a year between hysterectomy and RNY.

I was lucky and have had a good recovery with both surgeries-- nothing to complain about. No major pain. All smooth. BUT- it was a year before I felt 100% recovered from my hysterectomy. At 6 months, I was good but still not 100% recovered with Core strength.

Just my two cents

I don't know what the surgeon wants to do but both he and my gyno agree for me to rny before.
