How will I feel when I come round from having my hysterectomy (LAVH)?

I know I'll be sore, nauseous, emotional and tired etc because this will be about my 12th surgery so I'm familiar with how surgery and anaesthetia feel, but how will I feel specific to the hysterectomy? Will I feel different inside (once the initial pain has subsided and I'm getting normal feeling back)? Does it hurt when the things around where my uterus was adjust to it not being there anymore? Is there anything that will seem weird that would be helpful to be aware of? They're hoping to leave my ovaries but it might be that once my gynecologist has seem them he might not be able to- will I feel menopausal i.e different to being not menopausal immediately (I know from a hormone perspective I'll have had a surgical menopause and will physically post-menopausal immediately) or does it take a few hours/days to kind of kick in in terms of actually feeling it? I have loads of info on LAVH so I know what I should expect, I'm really wondering more about what it's like in reality. Any tips or advice anyone doesn't mind sharing would be very gratefully received. BTW I'm 31 and have not had children if that's relevant, I'm having the hyst because of severe endo and have had several 2nd opinions as my gynecologist and another one I've seen have discussed me with specialist endo and laparascopic surgeons so I know I have no choice and that it's the right thing to do and I'm as happy as I can be in the cirstances about that. Thanks very much in advance.

Fantasy Football Team (I know it's early)?

YOu've got a real good team. Deep at RB, might be able to make some trades with you extras...WRs are excellent as well, Def is good, you should have a top 3 finish for sure. QBs are average, Bulger is injury prone, and Kitna throws a lot of picks, but you should solid.

I wanted to know if taking other medications lower the effectiveness of birthcontrol? ?

I take Cipralex (anti-depressant), Biphentin (Anti-anxiety), Siroquel (sleeping pills) AND I take Yasmin as my birth control. I was just wondering if there is a bigger chance to get pregnant if i am using other meds. I heard it takes away some of the hormones in Yasmin...

Where should I volunteer?

My best friend is a junior fireman and wants me to join too. My other friend wants to help out at the local humane society. Which one should I pick?

Do u think pit bulls should be banned in texas?? or any other state?

U hear all the stories on which pit bulls killing ppl or giving them serious injuries. I do believe they should ban them only cause ppl dont train them right and abuse them to make them really aggressive. in my neighbor hood there was a pit bull that the owners let run where ever it wanted and my kids (both are 3 yrs old) were scared to go outside cause the dog would come towards them and try to jump on them. well that one died now they got a blue heeler doin the same. the dog catcher does nothing bout it so my kids cant walk out without a big dog comin to them. back to bannin the pits one just killed a 7 mth old and an elderly lady. they seem to hurt many ppl and nothing gets done about it. and something needs to be done asap. what do yall think???

Which is your favorite Batman movie of all time?

The Jack Nicholson Batman is not the very first one. There are several that came before it. But my favorite has to be the latest one, "The Dark Knight". and Christian bale has to be the best batman.

I need some guy help. ?

There is a guy I really like and we flirt whenever we see each other. We typically do a lot of texting back and forth and he calls me sometimes to go snowboarding (I haven't been able to go yet). The other night he drove me home after he was done at work (he's a bouncer at a bar my roommates and I frequent). One our way back he ped my house and dropped his friend off first and then drove me home. When we got to my house he unbuckled his seat belt to give me a hug and said we need to hang out. I feel like I'm the one that's gonna need to make the move in this situation and I'm not sure how to do that. Should I kiss him? Does he like me?
