Hi folks

Just been to see my consultant and he's going to give me a total hysterectomy in April. I've had inflamation and adhesions since my last c section in 2000. I also have anxiety/depression/panic since my daughter died of cancer in 1999, though I am much, much better, it still lurks.

My question is this, my hysterectomy is going to put me into an instant menopause and I'm really worried about the anxiety component of the possible symptoms. I asked my consultant and he said "we'll give you hrt" but the pill, mirina coil all send me poorly. I'm in pretty much constant physical pain, but the sort of pain mental health issues have caused me in the past are far worse.

I know lots of people who have had hysterectomy's but none of them have anxiety. I was wondering if anyone else had gone though a similar sort of experience? Thanks in advance.
