Tube removal-one week on-any guidance/help/advise on recovery really appreciated folks

Hi,

So had both my tubes removed last week-and I am still in agony.

So a few questions...

Number 1's - Has anyone else experienced bladder pain/issues afterwards. Have antibiotics for bladder infection-but still feels like at the end of my flow I'm going to turn inside out 😫

Number 2's - Has anyone else experienced a significant slow-down in this area-and can feel 'wind' moving inside-which again is excruciating.😫

I understand my insides have been very rummaged with-but just wanted to see if I'm 'normal' or should I be traipsing back to the Drs.

Waist down-did your skin feel super sensitive? Not just the wounds (which are actually alright) but my tummy-WOW πŸ™€

Also finally ideas of recovery time? I was told I'd be 'sore' for 24hrs-yeah right!!!

A week after I'm practically housebound still.

Every time I walk I'm having to hold my lower abdomen-just feels heavy-thinking of getting a girdle seriously!!! πŸ˜†

Any help/advise/your experiences are greatly received.

Thank you all in advance xxx

I've also had this done but was a while ago. I think I took about two weeks to recover. Continue to take things easy. There is no harm in seeing your gp if your worried. I don't think I felt as bad as your feeling just now. Sorry I can't be of much help xx

Hey I had both tubes removed last year and they definitely down play recovery time it took me 3 weeks or more tbh

Had antibiotics too due to infection and I also had pain a lot n they said it was wind n it's common after ops. My stomach felt superrr sensitive too.

Take it easy and go by what your body says.rest for as long as u need and no heavy lifting etc

hi, I had one of mine removed in March and for 2 weeks I could barely move. After that I think the pain was mainly stiffness from walking like an 80 year old hugging my tummy. Number 1s weren't too bad for me but number 2s slowed right down as I lost my appetite and wasn't eating much. I used windeeze alot and heat packs on my lower back. Wasn't brave enough for senna tablets as wasn't sure how fast id need to move to the loo. I think it was mostly mental for me that if I did do one it would really hurt.

fingers crossed you should start to feel a little normal in a few more days. Take it easy but remember those little walks x
