Hi
I had my hysterectomy on Thursday 12th December, laparascopically, the consultant said she had to ask a bowel surgeon to detach part of the womb from the bowel, so I had further incisions from this.
From yesterday after I've eaten small amounts I have had diahorrea, is this normal from the hysterectomy or could it be partly because the bowel surgeon became involved in my procedure? If it's common from hysterectomy how long does this last?
Thanks
Hi GFmom
On your discharge paperwork there should be a number to contact. I would give them a call and explain the diarrhoea. I can remember more people on here having some constipation after the surgery but that doesn't mean that diarrhoea is a concern. I would just give them a call and if needed they can give you something to help manage it.
It may or may not be due to the bowel involvement but they would have full details of what was done and would hopefully be able to reassure you.
Its still very early days and I wish you well for the rest of your recovery.
Jane
