  • This is so fusstrating!!!

    Ok...let me start by saying I have no idea if I'm posting in the right place. But here we go. I had a Hysterectomy in December 06. She took everything out. Good for me right.....wrong!!!

    I have still been spotting up until I got a second op and was DX with IC in March of 07. Well the GYN put some black stuff inside of me and said that the bleeding should stop now. Ok well all has been pretty good until about 4 days ago.

    I have had alot of pressure in my lower back and sharp pains in my female region. Well I of course think that the pain is 1 from the surgery or 2 part of the IC. The big problem is tonight I go to the restroom and what do I see......yet again I am spotting.

    I truly do not understand this. I do not have any female organs in there to cause the bleeding. So I have to be spotting from the "cuff" that they stiched together.

    You would think after 4 months that I would not be spotting still. I'm just so aggrevated

    Please excuse my typing.....its my handicap!!

      No I don't think it was called that. I believe I had the PST done and then the instills. That was in the beginning of March when I was DX.

      I just don't understand this.

        I think you should speak with a Dr. I would be concerned. I had a hysterectomy less than 2 weeks ago and I only spotted for the first 2 days. Could it be from your bladder? Have you done a tampon check to verify where it's coming from?? (tmi I know but I'm worried for you)

          Sounds like you're having some granulation issues around the vaginal cuff, since you mentioned the silver nitrate treatment. Sometimes the area around the vaginal cuff takes longer to heal for one reason or another. However, after 1 or 2 silver nitrate treatments all should be well.

          Dont hesitate to call your Dr and explain that you're still having some spotting, as this is not normal.

          feel better soon!
