Tomorrow is hysterectomy day. I have to be at the hospital for 11am as I'm on the afternoon list but I don't know what time I'll be going down. I've treated myself to a nice new dressing gown, slippers and nightie. Also taking a few healthy fruits and nuts to snack on...after the op...and a little bag of Thorntons choccies as a treat yummy! Have taken my mtx as usual today on the advice of the specialist nurse. I hope to be back home very soon and look forward to catching up with you all. Love to all
Wishing you well for today Paula,and i hope you will soon be up and about. I joke about mine being my 40th birthday present to myself as mine was done 23 days before my birthtday. You do as your told and don't over do it with this op.Love sylvia.xxx
Look forward to hearing from the new you. Agree with sylvi the best thing that happened to me. Sweet dreams from the anesthestic have a good recovery don't forget the next six weeks no heavier than a light kettle. Xxx
All the best of luck and success, Paula. I have often said, that was the best thing I ever did for myself. Just enjoy others doing for you, for as long as you can get away with it! Loret xx
Good luck Paula,be thinking of you. Enjoy your chocs you deserve them x
So glad you've kitted yourself out for the occasion - the few times I've been in hospital I've suddenly seen my worn-out nightwear with new eyes & felt the shame! You sound very prepared and I hope the operation goes very smoothly. Best wishes,
Good luck to you! Hope it all goes well, I'm sure it will. Be good and don't do anything you shouldn't or rush getting back to normal. It was very boring for me afterwards not doing anything and I did get back to work a bit too soon, but after 6 weeks I was climbing the walls! (Well, not really cos I wasnt allowed to do any climbing).
Do what the dr. says, watch what you eat as you wont be able to burn up the calories for a while and good on you for the Thorntons - we all deserve a little treat.
Let us know afterwards how you are.

Thank you all so much for the lovely thoughtful messages, you've made me feel very special. All I need now is a removal van for my huge bag! Have a good day and hope the sun shines for you x x x
When I had my hysterectomy I went in on crutches because of my RA and came out feeling so much better and carry my crutches. Thought I had found a cure for RA and didn't need my meds. Alas it was only a temporary remission but well worth those few months feeling very well.
Sorry Im late with my post been busy last few days and have been off line. Good luck with your op Paula and speedy recovery...will be thinking and praying for you.Lizaxxx
Good luck Paula. I had mine 10 years ago best thing i ever had done. Take some polo mints in as well, they help with the trap wind after . Make sure you do as you are told when you come home & you will recover with no problems. Xx Alison
