C-sections

emergency hysterectomy after cs

Anyone else have to deal with this? Looking for someone to commiserate with.

Re: emergency hysterectomy after cs

  • I haven't personally but I have had patients who experienced this. The doctors try everything under the sun to stop the bleeding before they opt for a hysterectomy. I'm sorry this happened to you.

  • I haven't, but I am so sorry.  I think that is everyone's worst fear.  Maybe there are some support groups you could join online?  Sorry, that is all I can think of...I cannot imagine the pain you must feel.

  • I've looked into groups online. ... but I love the gals here. It's sad to look at the hyster sisters website which seems to be the most popular one. I'm having trouble identifying with a bunch of people that had planned hysterectomy. I would rather talk with the ladies here who are all still excited about their babies. ..
  • I'm sorry you are having to deal with this. I don't have any suggestions re: support groups, but would encourage you to seek professional counseling if you feel it would help.
