Before and after surgery tummy
Hello every one! I had an open myomectomy March 9th to remove a singular fundal pedunculated fibroid measuring 15cm, 2.5lbs. They were using the size of a cantaloupe as the official fruit size comparison. I just thought I’d share my before and after pictures of my stomach. (1 is before. 2 is after) sorry the first photo is a dirty bathroom mirror.
I was really scared for a bit because my stomach was still very swollen even a few weeks ago. My body has changed pre surgery and even more so after and even now my belly is still tender in areas. But I’ve woken up thankful that I’ve healed so much. My body is feeling more and more normal every day. I’m running 2 miles 3 times a week and signed up for my first ever 5k on the 4th of July.
Anyways. Here’s the photos. Can you believe I almost opted not to have the surgery?
