Hi all, I am waiting to go in for a total hysterectomy! I have got pain which almost feels like it’s burning on my right side underneath my ribs. Has anyone ever had similar?

Pain on right side underneath ribs
Good luck with the surgery and hope it takes your pain away.I am waiting to get a date for mine too.
Thanks & good luck to you let’s hope you don’t have to wait too long 🤞🏼
I get this on both sides but worse on my left , even tho all my pain is right sided I am blessed with the left side burning and it burns like hell....does it hurt more if you sit/lie a certain way? Mine does
Yes it does hurt more if I lie on my right side so I have bought one of those new long hot water bottles, it helps in a small way.
How long have you had your pain?
Right sided pain has gradually worsened over the past 2 1/2 years, the burning under ribs has been about 18 months
You must be in agony! Has this got worse with the Endometriosis?
Yeah I've developed a limp through it all and cant walk too far, today I have nerve pain on my right bum cheek and its driving me nuts ...been lying with a ice pack on it I look delightful lol....I use a tens machine and it helps a bit but the constant pain makes me feel so down and stops me doing things even tho I fight it and do things I just get to the point were i have no choice but to curl up i really cant wait for surgery to open up again when this covid calms down
I really feel for you! Have you been given a date for surgery yet?
All surgery is cancelled until this lockdown is over and then they have a big back log to catch up with so just have to plod along for now
Hi I had a totally hysterectomy a few years back. I don’t remember having burning pain before it just agony. Sorry I can’t be more specific. I wish you all the best with the surgery and hope your pain free afterwards.
