my hysterectomy journey 07/18/20 - survived the surgery, big fart at 2:25

People, even the biggest wimps can be surprising when it comes to recovering from a major surgery. Certainly many people would be looking a lot worse than she does & a lucky few with excellent pain management, would have already been doing laps of the ward; not that she could at her weight but at 3 days post-op & still in bed, she's not doing badly.

Now she just has to get home & follow instructions, if she hopes the rest of her recovery is free of issues.

After all she is only 29 and she does seem like a medical miracle that she is able to move let only walk. I can't believe she has not come down with something before this = But I suppose all her chickens have come home to roost - she was warned constantly that when you reach 30 all your health issues start to manifest

I do think the is going to be a cascade of medical issues now and a massive deterioration in her health - I have known reasonably healthy people die within a couple of years of a hysterectomy because their bodies just never really recovered from the trauma
 
A bit of trivia. Surgeons ask you to state out loud in front of the nurse what procedure you are having done. They make sure you are fully aware of what they are about to do. At least, this has been my experience. Pre-op and on the day of the procedure. Amber knew what was being done.
 
No mention of her Lymph nodes. Seeing as they were enlarged I wonder if they were removed and a biopsy requested.

She has been out of it for a couple of days - they are probably being tested and she will have a sit down with the oncologist before she leaves - her bloods didnt look good either - I suppose they cant really tell her anything until they have all the facts to present to her
 
Fucking hell, why do I get busy when good stuff happens?

Well, she told the truth! Good for her, I guess. Now commence the complaineen! Which she has already taken full advantage of.

The autism over her cancer being fake is astounding. She has a deathfat cancer deathfats constantly get. Chantal had her baby plumbing removed over a risk of cancer, jen has this cancer and is too unhealthy to get surgery. Its a common outcome for fatass people with uteruses.

We all know full well amber lies but this smacks differently.
Her meth mom didn't give a shit about her until now which adds credibility to the cancer. WLS would not be a reason for Kristine to uproot her life over a daughter she gave up for drugs.
She showed us a paper talking anout cancer and hamby amby isnt smart enough to forge a damn thing.

Lets all chill and watch this shit play out.

You normally have to sign something saying you are agreeing to have the surgery and that you fully understand the risks involved - they are generally very detailed and idiot proof (but then again I am in the UK and I don't know how the legal side of medical procedures in the US is the same)
 
It is clear that Amber had an hysterectomy. While I was not sure if it was true, I do not believe that Amber could concoct such scam. She is not that bright and she would not be able to have Becky moved to Lexington if it was not true.

Amber lying is more toward exaggeration. The bleeding for 2 years is an example, so as the not washing her hair for 2 months. The moved happened but it was not likely done at the last minute.

I fully expect that Amber, while giving us more information on the surgery, will tell us that the surgeon found that it was the worst cancer he ever saw, 2 nurses fainted when they saw it, had they waited one more week, she would have died, and so on. This is her style and this is why it is so easy find out when she lies.
 
Gotta give it to her, she gave the people what they wanted. I was half-expecting her to come out with something like, "Americans Girls Try Ethiopian Food for the First Time" and inundate us with boring, irrelevant videos for the next couple of months, giving nothing but cryptic responses in regards to her recovery. The allure of asspats and views probably helped.

If someone more versed in cancer than me doesn't mind explaining, what does the cancer being "deep in her uterus" actually mean for her prognosis? Does it mean there's a higher chance it's spread or merely just it's a good job they acted fast?
 
Notice how in the first clip of her post-op there's the mat with handles underneath her? It was probably used to move her to and from the operating table, which raises the question- how many people were needed for that monumental task?

Medical Kiwis- do they use the same device on normal-sized people? I'm guessing it was still there when she woke up because no one wanted to risk throwing out their back trying to roll her back and forth to remove it. They had to wait until day 2 when they made her stand up on her own.
I didn’t watch the vid, sorry, sounds like you are talking about a transfer device that is blown up like an air mattress and it makes it much easier to transfer a patient. They will use it with larger patients, much easier to transfer.

These are what we use.... https://hovermatt.com/products/hovermatt-air-transfer-system/

Does it apply tough if you are paying out of pocket anyway?

Surgeons are taking on a big legal and reputational risk if they operate on someone who has a low likelihood of succeeding post-surgery and a high likelihood of complications/death. If a patient is demonstrating they're not taking the care plan seriously, that's a huge red flag to cancel the surgery.

It's not just about doing what the insurance company says so they'll pay for it.
 
Hard to be sure because Amber isn't coherent or clear at the best of times but I'm interpreting that as meaning it had penetrated fairly deeply into the uterine muscle - stage 1B. But that's just a theory.

That is what I am thinking - if that is what it is then she is lucky as the hysterectomy may have got rid of it - although she will need a lot of follow ups to make sure

Indeed, you can have people here stating that they are disappointed that Amber didn't die on the operating table and that they cannot wait for how she will suffer becoming bedbound and having complications but discussion about what proof is actually out there for what actually happened and if what Amber says is the truth has to stop?! I got the impression the farmers are about investigating and dismanteling the deathfats' bullshit but it seems I was wrong and some of them could easily change platform and leave some comments on her youtube channel for some asspats and pity points. Sad.
It has to stop not because it is morally wrong but because it is stupid and boring..... I mean - I haven't seen any proof that she isn't Sasha Baron Cohen in a fat suit = but I don't go on about it

Oh, yes, a ‘time out’ for safety. You have to give your full name, date of birth, what you are having done, allergies, and any meds that could interfere...Of course she knows what is being done.

I think she's referring to how deep the cancer infiltrated her uterus. Someone else in this thread that this might mean that she's in stage IB, but we still don't know all of the details yet. If the cancer spread to the outside of the uterus or her lymph nodes tested positive, then she's stage III and her 5 year survival rate is more or less 50/50. That's with chemo, which is expensive and hard to give to someone as fat as her.
 
It's insane for me that there's people who still doubt her cancer.

ALR is too dumb to fake all this shit
Her mother did the miracle of coming back to her life after what? More than 10 years?
The video where she's crying hysterically when she was just told she had cancer? Give her an Oscar if that was acted
Joining facebook groups for support and all her close circle putting cancer support icons as pfp, she would be lying to them all too...
& now a video of her all drugged up and swollen after surgery...

If you still choose to ignore all that, it's a lost cause trying arguing with you.
 
Jesus. There was never doubt she was having a hysterectomy, the question was whether Amber has cancer or precancerous cells. Someone of her size would have their uterus yanked out either way just to be safe because a lot of routine testing methods are out of the question for deathfats. Yes, I was in the doubt camp for surgery because she was just as likely to puss out as to go through with it, and as to full-blown cancer, I still am. But clearly she had surgery done, and no it wasn't WLS. Not sure where the self-righteous "how can you possibly talk this way about her" sperging is coming from either, it's not like this board has ever been kind to Amber.

As for the stage, while the surgeons were pushing through all that fat they would have taken biopsies of other areas, especially the lymph nodes in her pelvis, and after those are tested, a stage will be diagnosed. I'm perfectly willing to admit I was wrong if she can hold it together long enough to describe what the doctors will tell her when all is said and done.

Either way, Amber will come out of this kicking and screaming. A hysterectomy is a life-altering surgery that will permanently alter her hormones, and if she keeps up with her regular bullshit she's looking forward to a lifetime of (more) UTIs and painful constipation. If she thinks the liquid diet sucks, being told to watch what she eats for the rest of her life to prevent those things is going to send her spiraling. But as soon as she's able to eat solid foods again if she goes back to fried and sodium-rich garbage, she's not only setting herself up for a lot of pain but also only prolonging the healing period for her incision. She's also not going to like being told to get up and move around. It's going to hurt, but walking around is the best thing for her right now. I feel like we've beat the infection angle into the ground, but that's another likely scenario.
 
i'm disappointed we didn't get a "panda express in the hospital mookbong", sponsored by Becky the slave.
Not enough places deliver to the hospital, but they do have a quite impressive cafeteria there. It has like different areas for different types of food (homestyle area/ pasta and pizza area/ sandwich making bar/ salad bar, and more). I had gone down once when my brother was in the ICU before they moved him to the hospice in the cancer building).

Wondering why the bandage on her neck? Did they have to run an IV there during surgery?

Epidural makes sense for pain control but it doesn't sound as though it worked that well - she's high as a kite.

Very deep in uterus? Sounds like stage 1B. I'm waiting for her to mention how many lymph nodes they took & for the path report on those.

If she's not drinking enough, (she isn't, not nearly enough), of course she's going to feel dizzy/pukey when she stands. I'm not Nurse Ratchett but she needs to push through that as best she can. Furthermore - menopause after everything is yanked is pretty much 'instant' as the ovaries produce hormones 24/7 & there's no "backlog" in the body. That surgical menopause CAN cause nausea & headaches... as well as hot flashes, chills; another reason she need to be checking her temp to make sure she's not developing an infection.

"Barely eating" for her IS good - she needs all the weight loss she can manage, no matter the cause or reason.

Yeah, she doesn't talk much about getting up, although the nursing staff would be pushing that - for her own good.

Her question on FB about blood tests going back to normal after surgery... unlikely as they point to other problems. Other than the admitted bilirubin, vitamin D & hemoglobin, (anemic), I wonder what else is off?

At home, for the next week or so, she needs to check her temperature twice a day - it going up likely would point to an infection.

Not sure about her specific post-op instructions but she needs to carefully wash her cooter at least once a day & at her size, twice would be better. Then when she's allowed to, daily showers - at least.

Hope in another video she gives more details about the procedures, what closure they used for the incision & anything else.

yes, when they can’t get a good enough line in fat people on the arm they will use the neck 😬
 
We can all at least agree she had a hefty surgery done & why not a hysterectomy? Like others, I can't imagine her undergoing any other major procedure unless her condition was literally life threatening. She has the swollen lip many get from being intubated, the slurring sleepiness you often see with patient not used to narcotics.

Unless she defaults to pre-recorded crap, the next 3-4 weeks of videos should be gold.

First, her recuperation at home - gonna be LOTS of complaining there. Few will have suffered as much as she in terms of pain, nausea, difficulty standing, (forget walking), worry about how she's becoming weak from unassuaged hunger.

Then Momma leaves & that should produce enough wailinng to make even a saint grit there teeth.

Yup, the rest of Amberland summer will be far more interesting than the last era.
 
You were right, Amber. Cancer is not kyooote is it?

People like her always pull through. I swear it’s like a cosmic joke.

However, she may have pulled through the surgery but how will handle the recovery? That will be the real test, because if she doesn’t stay hydrated, eat healthier, and move around she will deteriorate rapidly.
