I am a emotional wreck today! WOW I have the worst headache from crying. I watched Benjamin Button today and cried the entire movie. PMS? LOL I have no uterus but I guess I will still have all the same emotions but this is really bad worse than any PMS I have ever had. I have alot on my mind right now. I am nervous about my bleeding although doc said I am healing I just need to take it easy so I have been laying around all week. I am also worried about my twin sister because of her fibroid and the baby. I have not slept right the last few nights. I am not usually a cry baby like this. I keep alot in and I think a years worth of tears hit me today! I feel like I need a therapist today! What do I do to get out of this? I am planning dinner with Seth and Jacob for 2morrow night and a trip to a art gallery to try and get me out of this but I feel like just crawling into bed and never getting out of it! Is this the post op hyster blues or what?  ? |

Sorry your feeling this way Keri. Im not sure what to say about all the crying.
I have shed a few tears myself lately, doc said its prob caused from the hyster. I have noticed that since i've been doing a bit more..ie coffee, hockey, that has helped.
*HUGS*

Dr. D gave me a progesterone suppository insert maybe that is why I am so emotional I have never had one before but if this keeps up I am calling to see. My headache is so bad too but it is hard to tell if that maybe from stress or one of other issues. I broke down after I read your post Pamelaj. Thank you for your concern it means alot!

Oh, Keri, I'm SO sorry you're having a rough day. I'd say keep an eye on the prog suppository. Could be that things are out of whack and your doc may need to make adjustments on the dose. Keep a close record of all the mood swings, k? You've been through a lot the last year and you've been incredibly strong through all of it, but it's ok to let the emotions to catch up to all of it. Hugs, kiddo!  |

Big hugs Keri, I know it's awful when you can't stop crying but there's no good reason for it. I had a day like that a couple of weeks ago xxx

Aww Keri, I'm so sorry! It has to be really hard going through this.  If I were in Ohio I would run over with a gallon of ice cream and a fun movie to watch. I hope it's just something that will pass with the hysterectomy. I'm giving you a long distance hug! |

Thanks girls! I called my doc on friday and he got me in that afternoon. It is normal and I am not nutts! I am taking a 15 mg dose of lexapro now so I hope that helps. I have been in bed for 2 days and have not even taken a shower! YUCK! Oh btw this is not typical behavior for me. It was sunny today and I did not even care. I usually would have been out taking pictures or playing with Jacob but I could not get out of bed! What the heck is happening to me? I felt so good a few weeks ago and now this?
Doc is checking my throid and running blood work to make sure I am not going into early menapause. I go in the morning for 3 orders of blood work.
Sorry girls for being like this I am not usually so down like this it really sucks! Thanks for the hugs and Jenaya would love some ice cream and a fun movie. That is what I need:)

No need to apoligize Keri...thats what we're all here for ...support.
My doc has me taking 10mg Ciprolax...its an anti-depressant/anxiety med to help with the blues. My doc also did blood work to make sure im not going into menopause so i know what your going through.
What helped me was talking to hubby, just getting reassured that you are loved no matter what helped.

Just because what you're going through is 'normal' doesn't make it any easier! Glad you were able to get in and see your doc. Now let's just hope you don't have any reaction to the meds! Please take care, and check back in with us so we know you're doing ok, k? Now get yourself out of bed and take a shower. I can smell you from here! |

I took a shower LOL!!!! Jacob came home from school today and wanted to go get some holdiday decor he saw in Better Homes and Gardens magazine so we are off in a hour for a outing. It will be my first time out since friday. We decorate the house for the holidays together and he likes to pick new stuff out each year so a little retail therapy maybe just what I need. Jacob knows how to cheer his mom up! |

Good, glad you're getting out! I don't know how you girls do it, recovering so quickly from such a big surgery and still manage to function most days. Don't beat yourself up over the few you don't get through how you want!
