Fatigue, Feeling Of Stitches In Sides Above Hip Bone And Lower. History Of Post Da Vinci Robotic Hysterectomy. Normal During Healing?
I am 50yrs old, and 3 weeks post Da Vinci robotic hysterectomy (uterus, cervix, tubes, ovaries, bladder repair, colon repair) I am 5.3" and weighed 120lbs day of surgery, today, I am 113lbs. I am exhausted, and I feel like I have stitches in my sides (above hip bones) and low, about where I 'think' my ovaries were. Is this possible? are there stitches, inside? Sorry to sound so stupid....I wish they'd sent me home with a book called, "WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN HEALING FROM A HYSTERECTOMY"
