Are we allowed to link to other websites on here? I hope it's alright...
http://www.hystersisters.com/ is an awesome site for you to read. They have pre-op all the way through many years post op.

I had to have a hysterectomy at 29, due to endometriosis. The "cysts" were huge - 20cm on my left side, and 13cm on the right side. This site was a godsend... along with dr's who are totally awesome!

If you want to talk more, pm me... or email me I don't mind.
