Losing my mind, choice made for me.
A few weeks ago I asked about if I should have my ovaries removed or not. Well after an ultra sound they decided to do a D&C. That was Thursday. After surgery gyn said we need to do a total hysterectomy. OK fine, let's do it and be done with it. But after visiting a hyst. site and some of the threads here I'm losing my mind. First I will be in recovering for 6 weeks, So I will miss more work. I only took 5 weeks off during chemo but still. They are great but how much can an employer take. Then, I'm still doing herceptin everythree weeks and that is reaking havoc on my bones and joints. More pain. I will have my first mamo. one week after the surgery and that scares me too. Not to mention 43 and not able to take hormones. Dear ladies, I need guidance, calm advice, stories and anything you can share. I just feel like it is a daily fight not to mention doctors visit. Thanks, Kriss
