Angie,
 Hey. I had a partial hysterectomy 4 years ago and for the past few weeks I have been in excrutiating pain in my middle back and under my breast (like in the rib cage) I have been very nauseated today and it hurts so much to sit up for any period of time.  I also have had itching on various parts of my body (especially on the inside of my hands at times) and I also have had the urinary problems. I found this website and was hoping to find some kind of answer to what in the world could be going on with me. I don't know if you found out anything or not but if you did I would greatly appreciate any kind of advice.

Thanks, Karen
