Advise for Hysterectomy surgery?

i had a full hysterectomy when i was 25. i was in hospital for 3 days. my surgery was abdominal so depending what method is used you can expect to be in there for minimum 3 days. i pleaded to go home. it will be six weeks before lifting anything and doing anything strenuous. i felt great relief with mine as i needed one badly so the pain afterwards was not a problem for me. normal life for me was around 6 months after surgery. everyone is different but whatever the doctors tell you please adhere to their advice and instructions. i wish you well
