Some women who undergo hysterectomy suffer from the following side effects after they have been discharged from the hospital. These persistent issues can include:
“Most cases settle, but each of our cases is prepared as if it’s going to trial. The insurance companies know it and so do the defense lawyers defending them. That’s why we get such great results for our clients.”
Some women may have to return to their doctors, or the emergency room, after hysterectomy because they are experiencing concerning side effects, such as heavy bleeding, inability to keep down fluids, swollen lymph nodes, severe pain, and increased heart rate accompanied by hot flashes or sweating. In most cases, women can go home two to four days after surgery, but women who continue to experience severe side effects may need to be re-hospitalized.
