Erin Barnett Instagram – I recommend you bring your own comfy blanket and 2 extra pillows. Hospital pillows and blankets aren’t great, the beds are too hard for me & boy of boy does my lower back hurt from it. I had my own pillows and blanket and it made my stay at the hospital more tolerable! If you are also getting a cystoscopy with your hysterectomy, be prepared for the most uncomfortable & painful feeling when you urinate for the first time. It feels like you have the worst UTI of your life. Take your pain medication as prescribed, you don’t want to feel pain while you are recovering in the first 24hrs trust me! This surgery doesn’t really feel any different from any other surgery I’ve had for endometriosis/PCOS. Im home today & currently resting in bed 💛 I will continue to update you on how the recovery is going. You know I’ll be as honest as possible and won’t sugar coat it. #hysterectomy #recovery #endometriosis #pcos #adenomyosis
