he said gina, now a days they have a big giant screen so the drs can really
see what they are doing.... they insert something into the abdomen and shoot like a dye or something to make them go away.... dont opt for surgery unless you really need it....dont let any dr . tell you different..some are just
knife happy..... for now he just gave me a prescription to a muscle relaxer to
take when i have pain and i that doesnt help, i will opt for something else..
i did have 3 other surgerys. 2 laporoscopys and 1 myomectomy and they
grew back.... .. their are other options... pm me if you would like to talk..
i know all about this stuff,, been through hell and back with pain...
good luck |
That was an option for me too. Do your research. It may be the best thing for you. Bear with me, it's been a few years so I probably don't have this exactly right. I opted out of this because they are actually injecting something into the blood vessels that feed the fybroids to "clog" them up. The procedures only been around for a short time, so there are no long term studies explaining what happens to this stuff years down the road. Anyway, this made me uncomfortable, so I opted for surgery.
