Location: Somewhere between raising hell and Amazing Grace | I have gotten a lot of great support when I have posted about my health issues. Well....my surgery is finally scheduled. I go January 28th. Anxious to get it over with but still nervous at such a huge decision. What it boiled down to more then anything is my fear of coming off the Lupron and what will happen then. I am terrified of going back to where I was before the meds and I don't want that. So....I have 30 days of anxiety if anybody feels like a pep talk....

It's been a while since I posted anything on here. I finally scheduled a hysterectomy because i have to come off the Lupron after January. FDA only approves it for a year's use. And it has helped me so much that myself, my husband, and my surgeon have opted for the surgery after 9 months of discussions. |

Ah, thank you. Hugs. Surgery is always nerve wracking. Sounds like you are being proactive and that's so important. Hugs and let everyone know how you are doing. |

Location: Lost with the rest of the MINIONS! | I had mine done at the age of 37, and do not regret it. It was laparoscopic, so no big incisions and was really not bad to recover from. You have put a lot of thought into this decision, and have prepared yourself as best you can. Prayers for strength and courage in the days leading up to the surgery; I think the waiting is worse than the surgery  |

Location: stray dump capital of the world | I had a total hysterectomy at 26 (I'm now 52) because of issues much like yours. I also couldn't continue to live like I was. It was by far one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was miserable before the hysterectomy and certainly made everyone around me miserable as well. I've never looked back. Best of luck to you. |
