If you've had a child vaginally and you are not morbidly obese, the surgery should be done vaginally. A well trained/skilled gynecologist performs their surgeries vaginally 85% of the time or more. Suggest looking around for second opinion if this the case for you. usually advise giving it a week or two before starting hormones if you need them, as they will increase your risks for blood clots, as does surgery.
Hystersisters.com is another good site
I am in the same boat as you, just can't afford to have mine yet. Try Hyster Home message boards and web page, lots of help and info there.
