Dear Sharon~
My heart is going out to you right now. Sounds like your spirit is so
low. I agree with Dena, we need to let go and take what ever help we
can get to keep comfortable. There are surgeries still after
hysterectomies. Maybe not as often but they are still happening. Please
take them if you need them. My Dr's. finally said no more because of
the thick density of scarring that occurs from a lot of surgeries. It's
a catch 22. Taking the meds helps maintain some type of balance while
we are "stuck" if you will.
It's Ok...your body needs this and so do you. Hang in there! Let us
know how your surgery goes.
