Guest guest Posted December 13, 2000 Report Share Posted December 13, 2000 Hello, My PCP wants me to have some very painful " lipomas " (fatty benign cysts) in my sacroiliac area evaluated by a surgeon for possible removal. I ache all over from tender points and trigger points, and just looked up Dr. Devin's " Advice for your Surgeon, " where she says removal may be appropriate in some cases. But that the resulting scar tissue can in turn create new trigger points . . . Has anyone here had any experience with this diagnosis? The lipomas feel like 2-3 inch muscle lumps below my waist, on and to the sides of the spine. If so, I'd appreciate input, either by backchanneling or on the digest. Thanks, Lynea in Tucson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
