I am so very sorry that you are going through that horrible experience. I am a 68 year old black male and a empath. I feel everything. I don't know you,but I truly want you well and happy. All I can do is pray ,so that's what I will do. ❤
So sorry this happened to you. It unfortunately seems to be common for doctors to mess up, making situations many times worse. Another van lifer (Antoinette Yvonne) shared a similar experience, which resulted in her temporarily having a colostomy bag. I pray you have a safe and speedy recovery. I pray the doctors and surgeons are able to focus and do their jobs properly for you and every patient. 🙏🏾
I had a vaginal hysterectomy and it was the worst experience of my life, I woke up afterwards and said stomach hurt and it turned out I had internal bleeding and was not doing good..they laid me flat and after hours I said please phone my hubby as it was supposed to be day surgery , they never called him with my complications until I told them too.. I ended up staying over 4 days due to losing half my body’s blood volume … The surgeon said don’t worry your body will absorb the blood in my pelvis … 3 weeks later I was gray, feeling nausea, lump in my abdominal .. and starting leaking out black gray blood and the smell was horrific .. surgeon still didn’t want to do anything.. 2 er trips and thank goodness for my family dr put me on strong antibiotics… But I bled like this for over 3 weeks.. I smelled like a decomposing body .. For a surgery that would have taken me 3 weeks to recover was over 10 weeks, so now I have scar tissue galore in my abdominal area .. The surgeon said I was one out of 10,000 people who had complications… He nicked a vessel.. He put me through a horrible thing and wished they would have opened me up day one . No woman should go through this .. Sorry that you had an awful experience and speedy recovery to you .
Nicole, You are a strong, brave, beautiful and courageous woman. I am so sorry for all you had to go through with your health. I am glad you are out in the sunshine again telling your story. You are an inspiration!!! Sounds like you need to find a new doctor.
Sometimes life hits us out of the blue, whew. You're a champ, keep on keeping on. I'm glad you're on the upswing even as the process takes a long time.
Oh, Sweetheart, it breaks my heart that you have to endure such an ordeal. I pray for a swift recovery, with as little pain as possible for you and your Mother. 💗💗💗
Bonded with your channel as I also travel in a FTC. Wow, you really have been on a wild journey since you last posted. Don't underestimate the PTSD that can come with going through what you've just been through. The mental and emotional trauma will fade, but can last for a while even after you've physically healed . Sending you lots of hugs and prayers for continued healing. Look forward to future videos on your new adventures on and off the road!❤🙏
I’m so sorry this happened to you. Take it easy, by the holidays you should hopefully be healed from the physical part of this. I can’t imagine the strain this has put you in emotionally. I’ll have you in my heart and be here when you’re ready to return. ❤
Wow, your positive outlook is impressive and encouraging, I take all these extra costs with the doctors, and the hospital follow-up visits etc is covered by them since they screwed up. Consult an attorney to protect your rights and be compensated for pain and suffering. Stay strong thank you for sharing
I had a bad time with my hysterectomy but different from yours. It is NOT a quick easy operation. I was 45 and bleeding so badly every month I got anemia. My nurse practicioner sent me to a gynecologist who did a vaginal ultrasound and they found a huge fibroid in my uterus. That explained the bleeding but I also had ovarian cysts, and they were dark, which suggested they were filled with blood or I had cancer (I also had an elevated C-125 blood test, a sign of cancer). The doctor went out on maternity leave and I got stuck with a man who wanted to rip everything out, no item-by-item procedures. I wasn't happy but I was also afraid of cancer. So I did go in for a complete hysterectomy. On the way to the recovery room my lungs collapsed and I couldn't breathe. I had the big vertical cut. They found I had severe endometriosis (no symptoms). wasn't making my blood supply back so needed a transfusion in the middle of the night. What got me was the PAIN. I had little to no pain control at all. I was 8 days in hospital and released with my mom there to look after me as well as the visiting nurse. My BP was very high due to the pain and I couldn't even roll over in bed, much less walk. The nurse called the doctor but he would not up my pain meds because he was "afraid I would get addicted." He said to take 800mg ibuprofen. Finally I called him and begged and he very begrudgingly agreed to change the meds to a stronger one. Once I got those I finally began to recover. It was in 2002 and I swear I'm not fully recovered yet. Surgical menopause was no fun either. I would counsel any woman to get a second opinion before she's filleted like a fish and not taken proper aftercare of.
Nicole, my heart hurts for you and what you went through. You're right, sepsis is very serious as well as the other issues you faced. I think you're very brave to share your story with us, but I also think it's something others might need to hear and learn from. I'm surrounding you in a healing light as I type this and I will continue to do so as you continue to take "one step at a time" towards a full and complete healing. Blessings to you and your mom.
All this information about the perforation and the surgery should have been disclosed to you prior to discharge. You should have been informed to go to the hospital for a temperature greater than 100. They should also have instructed you not to perform any enemas. I hate this happened. You did not receive proper post surgery information and care.
Why is there heaps of info online saying to use an enema after a hysterectomy if you haven’t had a BM in 2 days? I am confused and scared. I am having a hysterectomy soon.
@@iSheree She had a perforated colon and not just a routine hysterectomy. Her colon had to be repaired so she shouldn’t have used an enema until she was cleared by her surgeon. Please follow the instructions given by your surgeon and not just the information you find online.
@@marvat6722 my endometriosis is really bad I have bowel adhesions to the abdominal wall and the gyno organs. So I am hoping they don’t perforate my bowel but I am glad I saw this I wont be trying an enema! Think I will just make sure I have laxatives before and after lol. 😳
My God these doctors aren’t lacking the necessary skills! it’s scary you really have to have self-care with your body now. I’m so glad that you put this out. I know it is hard but it’s truly needed!!! The same scenario to some degree happened to Antoinnette another CZcamsr from Halle Berry being missed diagnosed with herpes when she’s going to menopause!!!..Must be a better way to have care for Black women bodies !!!! 😢 I’m glad that you’re still here with us🫶🏾💯✌🏾
Oh girl. I’m so sorry to hear this. I’m glad you’re well enough now to tell us what happened! Sending healing vibes your way, hoping for a rapid recovery!
This is very scary and so brave of you to share. I’m so glad you are ok and I hope you have a smooth recovery moving forward and that the next surgery goes well. Thank you for sharing your surgery and making others aware.
This is a lot to process. I am so sorry that you had to experience this. You are right, Sepsis is a very scary and serious thing to be diagnosed with. Thank you for sharing. Sending prayers your way. Please take care 👼🏽🙏🏽💓
I am so sorry all of this happened to you. I am praying that all continues to get better and when they reverse the surgery, you are an entire healthier new woman. Sending you love and light.
OMG, I'm so sorry to hear that you went through that. But I'm glad that you are doing better and recovering. I miss you so much and please keep us updated❤
That was scary to listen to, so I can't even imagine how traumatizing it was to experience. I lost my aunt to sepsis, so I am very thankful you recovered from that. I am praying for your full recovery and a future of good health.
So Thankful you are okay Nicole...❤🙏🏾 God bless you. That sounds so awful😢 Sorry you went through such a horrific experience...glad your still with us. 🙏🏾 Miss your channel and little Kali❤...All the best in the future after all this traumatic scary experience. Sending prayers of continued healing.
Oh my gosh! So sorry to hear this has happened to you! Glad to see you are still smiling. I hope your journey is successful and pain free. Wishing you the best!
Oh girl, they should have told you all that after the surgery. That’s not right at all. I had a softball size mixed tumor on my ovary. My gram died from ovarian cancer. After my surgery I was told I didn’t have cancer, but he said I was quite lucky because they almost lost me. Makes me wonder what really happened tbh. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery. ❤
Why was you not told about the problem encountered in surgery it’s very strange. Did they not tell you the truth before you went home? I would be seeking legal help by now as. It’s normal to give you a full disclosure of your operation
Nicole I'm so happy you're alive and I'm so sorry you had to go hi through this. I will keep u in my prayers and will be looking forward to any updates you may share. I'm so angry with that hospital. I think you know what the next steps are after you heal.
Nicole, I am SO sorry you're going through all of this! I can only imagine how difficult it has been. Wishing you a full & speedy recovery. You seem like an amazing person with a beautiful heart & soul. You will be in my thoughts & prayers ❤
I had a bowel perforation following an ovarian tumor removal. My doctor was honest about the mistake, and kept me in the hospital for 3 days. I was not allowed to eat or drink anything during the hospital stay in case they needed to operate again. You should have been informed of the perforation, and you should have been treated accordingly! I would say that you have grounds for a malpractice case.
Hi Nicole, I was really happy to see your video. Sorry for everything you had to go through. I had a hysterectomy as well, but thank God there were no complications. I'm keeping you in my prayers. My question, did they tell you that she perforated your bowel after your surgery was done? Or not until you went back?
As someone who has to have this surgery soon I am petrified by stories like yours. I am so sorry you had to endure all of that. Glad you made it through. Would love an update to know how you're doing now. Love and hugs to you all the way from Trinidad & Tobago.
I’m sorry to scare you. Most surgeries turn out fine and no one has a reason to post a video when things turn out the way they should. I’m doing well and hope to get another video up soon.
@@nicolewise Don't apologize. We need to know how these things can go on both side of the fences. I am very similar to you. I have a very large fibroid resting on my rectum and giving me hell with bowel movements/constipation. Because of you I know what to look out for so thank you! I look forward to seeing your update and I am very happy you are doing better now.

OMG. I feel like you are telling my story . I was in to .have hysterectomy. Was supposed to bein hospital for couple days. While I was under the gyn . thought it was scar tissue and began to cut it out. She cut my bowel . I wake up and they had to do another surgery to repair this I ended up in the hospital for an additional 3 months IT WAS A TOTAL NIGHTMARE . I too, almost died. I had the surgery almost 2 yrs Ago. I have had several health incidents but because of what happened to me I'm petrified to go to hospital

I don’t think it’s the enema that caused the sepsis. They messed up and are blaming it on you to avoid liability.
The fever started before the enema. So you are right. The enema did burst my damaged colon open though.
I agree.

Good question.
Wow😢😢😢😢😢
Ob-Gyn's are notoriously unskilled surgeons as a whole. There are the occasional exceptions. They receive very little surgical training as the majority of their training is in obstetrics. I am an RNFA who specializes in robotic Gynecological surgeries. In the right hands, your difficult case should never have ended up as it did. I would also question why the colostomy? If they resected the damaged bowel, they can typically re-anastomose the two healthy ends. I'm very sorry your surgeon didn't do a better job of planning the surgery and didn't have the skill to take on such a challenging case.
I was told the bowel needed to heal from the sepsis infection before reconnection to avoid issues.
Totally agree
Wow
🙏🏽😇☮💪🏽✌🏽❣
Sounds like the Dr wasn't very experience and should have told you what happened!!
Exactly.
