    Castigame, glad that you are okay. Did you get a nerve block before the surgery? Are you on any pain pills?

    (I had one ovary and both fallopian tubes out but not uturus, only because it was okay to leave in for now and I wanted a shorter recovery. But they gave me a nerve block that was long lasting, like three days, and it was great)

    no nerve block. Just enough anethesia meds. DH told me the second happy juice went in I started chirping of sorts. I really did not want to see operating room this time. This was surgery #7 this yr. - Breast biopsy, DMX, port implant, port explant, colonoscopy with upper endoscopy, elbow lump removal and total hyst I had this year.

    No pain pills either. It just fills like period cramp. Everything including cervix removed. Cried a lot Saturday after seeing this cute baby girl. Done and done nothing more to be done.

    Thank god for insurance. Before hyst, YTD actual payment by UHC $250,000.00 full billing was about $570,000.00. Hyst will increase to about $270,000 from 250

    Thank you!!!

    Happy New year!
