I could be wrong but that doesn't sound too big to me. Any doctors out there that want to speak up????? Perhaps the abdominal myo is because of location in the uterus and level of laparoscopical difficulty. One thought though -- is your doctor board certified to do laparoscopy? If not, he's may not recommend something he doesn't do. It's just a thought. I'm not saying that's the case here -- it's just a thought. >P.S. I am not sure how to reply to the replys that I got. Just reply again. You're doing fine. carla fyi -- to those of you who might wonder how I go about converting cm and m -- there's a website that will do it for you. MegaConverter is what it's called. I love it because I can convert all of these numbers of size and volume for fibroids -- but also because I can use international vegetarian recipes that I wouldn't be able to understand how to determine quantity of ingredients otherwise. Here's the link. It's a good one to bookmark. http://www.megaconverter.com/Cv_start.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
