Now Playing: Beautiful Times
Posted by Michelle G I am sorry to hear that you are going to have to go through surgery . Especially given the outcome of it all. I really cannot advice you much on the colo rectal part as my endo never gave me problems in that aspect. As far as the hysterectomy I will tell you that you are right in assuming that the hysterectomy will not stop the pain. God knows that has been the case with me. I am still in pain and just found out recently that the terrible surgeon I had left bits and pieces of my ovaries in and I am having a lot of problems with that. On the other hand if you are in that much pain October can seem like a life time from now . I know when I found out I had to have my hysterectomy I was told in October and had to wait till Feb and it was sure hell. I think the anticipation of it all and the pain played a huge part in that. I personally am one of those people that know if something unpleasant is coming my way I want to get it taken care of as soon as possible. So if I were in your shoes I would just get it over with . I know that sounds crass but why postpone the inevitable ? It is ultimately your choice to make and know I will be praying for you whatever decision you make . I cannot even imagine what you are going through ..... my heart really goes out to you . I do hope you can have a good birthday despite your medical problems. Apparently our birthdays are not far apart. I believe yours is on the 23rd of August and mine is on the 27th of August. I will be 29 and I am not looking forward to it. I love my birthday and all I just hate that I am going to be one year closer to turning 30. I told my husband and friends that this is the last birthday I plan to celebrate for six years . Then when I turn 35 I will celebrate once again and claim I am turning 30. I have a feeling that when I do turn thirty next August I will spend the day at home crying my eyes out and asking myself where all my time has gone. I have a lot to show for my 30 years but none the less it is a milestone that I am not looking forward to. Well I am sorry that I could not be of much help as far as advice goes other than to tell you what I would do in your situation. I do pray you find clarity in the midst of all this chaos and are able to get better. Feel free to email me whenever you like. I am not home much these days I started working about three weeks ago for a very large retail store as an executive manager and WOW it is a lot of work . Especially being on my feet and running around so much . I like it though I just hope my body holds up . I am in a lot of pain but I am just trying to work through it and do the best I can as I really do like this job and do not want to have to quit do to health concerns. Anyhow you take care and I am going to attach my email address to the bottom of this post please feel free to contact me whenever you like and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. Good Luck God Bless You and I will be praying for you . Love Michelle G. RMBTGARCIA@HOTMAIL.COM
