3 weeks after Laprascopic surgery

I had a rather large complex ovarian cyst, along with my left ovary, removed almost 3 weeks ago and I was just wondering if anyone else has inexplainably broke down in tears?

The past 2 days I have been an emotional wreck at the tiniest thing. Even people asking me if I'm okay sets me off!

I'm due to go back to work next week and the thought of it makes me so nervous it's unbelievable...

Any reply would be greatly appreciated :)

Good morning ladies, I too suffered from uncontrollable cries. I was told 5 years ago that I had small ovarian cycst which grew over the years. I bleed for three years and finally had a full hysterectomy 03/01/12. It was the best decision I had ever made in my life. I say this not because I do not want kids because that was the whole reason for the tears but because I am still here. The day I was admitted to the hospital my blood levels were at 2 I was no longer producing blood my body was leaking the remaining fluids it had in it. For me it was life or death. After 6-7 blood transfussions and a couple of iron treatments adn a 2 week stay in the hospital i decided that having it would be better than going through that again and since having it I have no more pains, no bleeding, and I am loosing weight. HYSTERECTOMY WAS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME!!!

I had surgery today and I burst out crying as I woke up. I don't remember it whatsoever and its a side effect of the anaesthetic but still a shock for me :P

Dani, You are very welcome and I hope you feel better soon.
Take care and stay strong. I do feel the same pain you are going through. I have been trying to withdraw from this surgery but I am the one who is suffering with pain and bloated stomach.  SO not choice have to get my precious ovaries and tubes out.  

I hope you will be able to cope at work next week and tell your co workers that you are very upset and you do not want to talk about it at this moment,  and you will be able to share your experiences when you are ready.

God bless.

Thanks Perak :) I think it's just good to know that I'm not alone, I have kind of came to the realisation that it's only just sinking in that I have now lost an ovary and that one day in the near future I would like to have children and I don't want my chance getting slimmer than they already are y'know?

Thank you so very much for your kind words and I return them tenfold and hope that our courage makes us happier people :)  

*Hugs!*

Hi Dani,

"if anyone else has inexplainably broke down in tears?"  YES it is a YES.
I am also going through this same problem.  My ovaries and tubes should go as per my OB/GYN.  I have already started to break down in tears. I am crying all the time.  I cry while eating, lying down, as I type this I am crying, I cry while in the shower, I am crying and crying I do not know what to do.  I hope that I will not end up going through depression. The reason we are so worried is a part of us is gone and we cannot replace it back.  WHAT TO DO MY DEAR stay strong it is better to remove it that facing something worse.  We might miss the opportunity in having a better life.  So stay strong,  
Hope you are feeling well.

God bless.
