My surgery was yesterday. I felt so awful. Like I was bleeding everywhere. I used the mesh panties and big ol pads during the surgery and the first night. This am I was able to clean up a bit and put on my own panties/ pad that made a world of difference. Much more supportive. . no tampon because theyre measuring all the urine. And last night I had a catheter. I was so upset when it came on friday, but eveyone says its very common. My nurses have been great.
