Glad I can be of help.. and yeah any of those types of surgeries require the same incisions, though some have different healing. Actually in a lot of cases a hystorectomy can be a bit faster of a recovery because they do some cauterization while they're inside, but with a c-section the uterus is intact and is VERY tender. I'm hoping that having a hysto this time around will make things a bit better.
Still at least 6-8 weeks for FULL recovery for most people, and for myself it's generally 6-8 months (because of my abdominal bleeding).
