Hi,

 

Forgive me if I posted this before but has anyone here had a hysterectomy?  If so, is sleeve surgery worse in comparison? Or even c-sections....those are kind of similar to hysterectomies where there is a big incision. Thanks!

I've had two C-sections - the old-fashioned kind where they did the vertical cut from belly button to pubis.  C-section was MUCH, MUCH worse than a laprascopic sleeve!  

Sleeve is a breeze by comparison.

I've had two C-Sections - the sleeve was a total breeze compared to those!!  

Just took one pain pill when got home the first day after surgery - then extra strength tylenol after that.  There is absolutely no comparison!  No long scar - just 5 small ones for me.  

Good luck to you!!

Thank you so much! That's what I was hoping for....that it would be more similar to when I had my gallbladder out than when I had my c sections and hysterectomy. I'm thinking that the tummy tuck would be more similar to the c section recovery.  Thanks again!

I had a hysterectomy and RNY. The RNY was nothing compared to a hysterectomy.

RNY:  4 June 2013
