I have a friend who has fibroids and has decided to have a hysterectomy

[Ecumenist]

4. Exactly, this is EXACTLY what I was trying to tell her. I told her to explore every other option

before the hysterectomy. I told her that there are consequences FAR beyond the dact that she's having an ORGAN removed and it isn't cancerous. I have told her that it is singularly the most PAINFUL surgery I have EVER experienced. I have had an ovary removed, about 10 feet of colon and my omentum removed, part of my stomach removed, a T&A@17 yo, (HORRIBLE, trust me), a laparotomy and a ganglionectomy and that hysterectomy was the WORST PAIN I EVER EXPERIENCED!

She won't listen and actually got kind of smart with me. I will try again but honestly, she p*****d me off! I'm of half a mind to remind her how I tried to tell her how painful it would be and how long the recovery time would be when she's whining about her pain. I know that's mean but really, she was really snippy and hurt my feelings.
