I cant stand for long without the pain in my right side and lower back hurting so much im crippled over. My hips hurt i habe shoulder pain.My gynecolgist had discharged me saying its not gyne anymore refered me to physo. But I'm in pain everyday it's made me have no life at all. I'm so depressed down stressed now i dont no where to go from here. She sent my gp a letter saying she thinks it's muscular skeltal pain and that's it. I hope u find some answers don't give up in not.

Hi. I too had a full hysterectomy in May 2017and have been having the same pain in my right hand side, lower back and am back on painkillers every day and liquid morphine sometimes too. I had a colonoscopy and they said there was no endo in my bowel but I know my body, as you two both know yours, there is still something wrong. Maybe we can get a response Ladybird and thank you for raising this. I am so glad I am not alone.

I had total hysterectomy in August 2017 and ended up with a massive cystadenoma and endometriosis in Dec and had to have big surgery at end of March. Hysterectomy is not a cure. I would ask for a referral for a ultrasound/mri.
