hey toni,
what prompted you to get your remaining ovary taken out.when you had
your hysterectomy was one side bothering you or both.my right side has
always been the issue but 1 1/2 weeks has gone by since my
hysterectomy where they took everything except left ovary and tube and
my left side is giving me fits now.any suggestions?should i be upfront
with my dr. about this?i have my post op visit monday.
thanks ann barber
