Training after hysterectomy

[Flopsy]

Hi Jane, I'm 8 weeks post op now and 4 weeks to go. I am sooooo bored.

Physio and doctors and specialist all said 3 months for riding a horse (I ride too) and 3 months for running, biking, circuits....anything remotely impact or with excessive movement.

Bummer.

Thanks for pointing out title of this thread Flopsy!

I am seeing the physio next week for a 3 month recovery plan, including exercises, based on my level of usual fitness. She will then give me a follow up call after the op to make sure that the operation went as planned and she doesn't have to revise the 3 month recovery plan.

I can't tell you what a relief it is to sort it out.

Flopsy, I realise you wrote this years ago, but if you still have the exercise plan I'd really appreciate seeing it (email?) I am going to have a hysterectomy because they have found cancerous or pre-cancerous cells (not sure yet) and I'd like to start preparing. Thanks - I hope your op is now just a distant memory.

Thanks it is my motto, if I get to a race and can’t decide what shoes to wear Talons? Rocklites? or Mudclaws ? I always think if in doubt get the mudclaws out, can never have too much grip.:thumbup:

I feel like that about grip too.

Yes, good luck Alexandra.

[are we nearly there yet?]

Please could you also send the plan to me? My op is scheduled for 6th feb, i have struggled with coming to terms with it tbh, as ive spent the last 12 months building my fitness up to enter L100 (which i have) i did L50 last year and saw that as a stepping stone to my ultimate goal, this now looks doubtful for 2013, totally gutting!

[Alexandra]

Yes, good luck Alexandra.

Thanks Mike.
