16 weeks post op and struggling

Hi, I am 16 weeks post total abdominal hysterectomy and removal of ovaries and still have so much pain abdominally and in my lower back. I would have thought everything would have healed by now, is this not he case? I am on oestrogen and testosterone HRT. My pathology all came back clear so i have no idea what is causing this pain. Any advice please?

I agree - you would expect to be well recovered. If you have a history of back problems its possible that its been aggrevated and you may need some physio. Or this may be a new problem. Best to see your Doctor to check this out.
