I realised over night my wind and gassy are actually cramps and noises from my uterus and became quite painful, so took painkillers which eased it a bit , but hardly slept for cramps ( wow there so noisy too )!! anyone else had these cramps please before hysterectomy ?
WI'll call my cns this morning for what to take but would anyone recommend nurifen or paracetamol to be best ? Thankyou
What made you think that mollysue? Most likely to be gut stuff still from the stress of worrying and not eating properly
Hi mollysue
I hope you have managed to contact your CNS for some advice? I didn't have cramps but I do still wonder if it is all the worrying and not eating/sleeping properly. Ask your CNS about what is best to take and they may have some idea of what is best to help settle your tummy.

Jane and Marmite I am trying to agree with you both as today it’s much better and only took 2 tabs at 1 am , Been less painful today and been chatting to a good friend who had hysterectomy too and eased my concerns a bit . Saying seconds and your awake all done
My friend had hers 15 years ago , in hosp 5 days off work 8 weeks and keyhole surgery wasn’t even known then
I need to go Monday try and be more positive and look what’s it’s being taken away ,thank goodness
I’ve got a wonderful gyno experienced in minimal invasive surgery and lead chair for gyno oncology too and she Happily let me wait 5 weeks while she was on hols
