mood swings after hysterectomy

[troid]

I HAD A HYSTERECTOMY 7 WEEKS AGO,I STILL HAVE 1 OVARY LEFT. I HAVE BEEN HAVING TERRIBLE MOOD SWINGS AND ANXIETY SINCE THE SURGERY.ONE MINUTE IM AS HAPPY AS CAN BE AND THEN THE NEXT I FEEL LIKE THROWING THINGS AT THE WALL AND THE NEXT IM BALLING MY EYES OUT. I'VE NEVER HAD A PANIC ATTACK BEFORE BUT NOW I DO, I THINK. SOMETIMES WHEN IM DRIVING I GET AN OVERWEALMING FEAR OF CRASHING OR HAVING SOME KIND OF FREAK ACCIDENT, LIKE AN OVERPASS CRASHING ON TO MY CAR.I ALSO HAVE FEELINGS OF SOMETHING HAPPENING TO MY CHILDREN.IM SURE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH MY HORMONE LEVELS, AND HRT IS NOT AN OPTION BECAUSE OF HI RISK FOR CANCER. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THAT WILL HELP ME THAT I CAN MENTION TO MY OB? ANY ANSWERS WILL HELP THANKS LADIES

Omg, I was just at the ob dr. today getting my hormones checked. I thought i was going crazy. Emotional basket case before the surgery, lived like that for a year. Got the hysterectomy, kept one ovary become insane but seems to be getting a little better. Only flipp out ever once in a while. My husband made the appointment.LOL Waiting on the results. I always thought this hormone thing was a crock. Huh, crock my butt. This is some serious crapp. You hear about all these women killing there husbands and kidds and you sit back a think omg how could they do such a thing. I have not been that bad but i could see now how it could happen. It's very scarey to not be able to control your emotions.

It has almost been a month after my total hysterectomy.  I look as though nothing has ever happened to me, but I am having major mood swings.  When I get like this I noticed my family is wondering what is going on and I take a deep breath and stop, realizing I need to slow down.  Now, I am waiting for the day this will all be behind me because the women I know who has gone through this have stated it has been the best thing. I am taking Climara and fortunately have not had any experience with sleeplessness and heat flushes. About an 2 hours after surgery I was given the patch.  Trying to learn more about bioidentical hormones since synthetic hormones seems very risky to me.

I had a Hysterectomy 4 days ago, and I feel like I am going crazy!
My boyfriend is starting fights with me left and right, because the words are just not coming out right.
I have tryed talking to him about how I feel inside but it gets me no where. all I do now is cry, and feel lost and alone. has anyone felt this way after a Hys?

thanks meggie

I am a raging fool.  Had my uterus removed and keep both ovaries 6 weeks ago and I have had major mood swings, yelling and anger issues.  I don't know what to do. My poor family has taken the brunt of all of this.  My husband finally got up the nerve to ask me if I thought the surgery had anything to do with my mood swings.  Never really thought about it becasue I still have my ovaries and didn't think hormones would be a problem, but now I think it very well could be.  If anyone gets advice from their dr on what to do, please share!!
