I won't ETA because you've replied. But rereading my post above it implies that all hysterectomies are considered elective. Obviously you're intelligent enough to know what I mean. Just to set the record straight - where a patient decides to have surgery i.e. they will not die without it - it is termed elective. Even in cases where it will bring health benefits.
I think it's a less emotionally charged term than cosmetic.
SW, sorry that it got to such a dramatic point before you got what you wanted. At least you have your determination to get you through the aftermath.
