It has been a year since the hysterectomy and most of it has been wonderful. I mean for the most part I have lived pain free and even ran a great sub 11 min mile today. For those reasons I feel great and I will never regret my decision. I made my choice to live pain free after 15 years of hell. Now, she did warn me the endometriosis could return, I might still get a period, and that we may have to do more surgery, and that all of this is rare and happens in less than 5% of people. The last year has told me that I am in the minority and almost all of it has happened to me.
Since the surgery I still have a period and no uterus. Can someone please explain to me how this happens? I still also have pain, but it is random and has no reason. It can be 1 day a month, no pain for 3 months. I can live with this as it isn't chronic and everyday like it was. Today was one day where I wondered if there was an alien in my stomach. Since the surgery it is probably the worst pain I have had and it took most of the day to get rid of it. My BFF and I are totally puzzled by this, hence the alien in the stomach theory.
I will take what I have now and do no more surgeries, pills, shots, or any other crazy treatment. The last year has made me feel alive and normal again. I just need to accept I will have some random weird pain and deal with it. Oddly, I had crazy back pain with all of it today and the only thing to help was running. I guess I have found what works for me.
On a random note danyal has two new songs he loves to sing. Jingle bells and then "you can't always get what you wantttttt". It is so cute I die laughing each time!
