what no one tells you...this may be graphic

Ok, so this is what no one tells you about having an oopherectomy, not that many people have them, but here it is. So my procedure was laparoscopic, meaning all done with small incisions as opposed to a large one, so have 4 tiny scars. Now with the mastectomy, most of my pain came from my incisions and drain tubes, so I was expecting the same kind of pain, but no, this pain is more closely compared to childbirth. I woke up to what felt like a contraction that would not go away, I was quickly given pain medication and felt better until it was time to stand up. Again, I had the flashbacks of childbirth, that after feeling like something has been ripped out of your insides. It's not there all the time, but it will hit you, when you move a certain way, or laugh, or breathe, you never know. Then there are the hormonal changes, which I have been waiting for since I learned that I would lose my ovaries. Now it's scientific, they take out the organ that makes estrogen and progesterone, so of course there has to be major side effects...well I'm still waiting. I kind of feel the same, maybe moodier because I am very tired, maybe being tired is another side effect- I am tired all the time even without the pain meds. I get sad, but I have been sad on and off since I was diagnosised. And the bleeding, nowhere, did any one warn me about the amount of bleeding. I take it back, when I left the hospital they said Ii would have light bleeding, so not true. Again it's like after childbirth bleeding, so, so far it's kind of like the worst period every, sore, moody, tired, sad, emotional, bloated...
