Are you ready for your hysterectomy. I hope it resolves your iron problems.

Will be thinking bout you. Betsy

still cycle with my ovaries left. You know I lost weight usually at the time

of my period and I wonder if the back pain will still be affected by the

hormonal issues? I've been thinking about you with all this mardi gras talk. I

have

always wanted to go to NO. We went to buloxi to see Dr. Booth but didn't have

time to go further. Maybe one day.....

Mel,

I had my hysterectomy 6 mos before my DS. I still have my ovaries.

And yes, I still cycle. I still get the PMS (tho very mild- thank

you God!), I still get the water retention and sore breasts, but not

nearly as bad. Dont know about your back pain tho- I dont have any

cramps or pain, just the bloaty, toady feeling and the weightloss

usually came about day 4 after the PMS.
