Since my TAH I have been reading and researching everything I can about menopause and life after hysterectomy. This is hard to do because there aren't many people who have had a TAH at age 21. I try to tweak the information to fit my life and so far I have made it work. One day I stumbled upon information about pelvic pain post TAH.
Since surgery I have had twinges of pain in my pelvic region. I will admit at first I was discouraged by the pain I was feeling, but as a poured into reading I found that its most likely scar tissue from all my past surgeries. I have had six of them total, thats alot of tissue build up! I found some information on Pelvic Floor Therapy.My doctor has brought this up to me at my 6 week post op appt, and left it as an option. As I was reading I was able to learn a bit more, personally I feel that I phoned my obgyn this morning and asked if I could still get a referral to see a pelvic floor person. Tonight they phoned back and said that they would set up and have the clinic get a hold of me.
I am keeping an open mind and hoping that this therapy is beneficial to me in more ways than one. While my pain is no where near where it was this time I am trying to be more proactive and on top of any pain that may be occuring in my body.
