Sorry you are confronted with decisions. If you haven't joined the HysterList please do. It will help you with the decision you have to make. Everyone heals differently. If your docs are considering a vaginal hysterectomy, you will feel better, sooner, though it still takes your insides time to heal. You may be able to return to work sooner. If they aren't, make sure you ask why. Sometimes it is because the doctor is not good or experienced at doing them so doesn't recommend it. Other times, it is because they want to open you up to take a look around. Make sure you know your options.
Wishing you the best.
