Hi JoAnne

Sorry to hear about your symptoms, I think theyre a lot worse than mine, but

you are lucky to already have 3 children. I am 35 years old with no

children, I desperately want a family. Good luck with your surgery. A

hysterectomy would break my heart, if I was told that. I am based in

London, England.

thanks for your reply.

Hi Patty,

May I ask your age, and the name and location of the doctor who did your

myomectomy?

Joann, did your doctor speak to you about the report of hyperplasia or neoplasm

in your ultrasound? Hyperplasia indicates an overgrowth of cells and can lead

to cancer. Obviously, this cannot be left alone. A neoplasm is a tumor

(literally, " new growth:)

Hi!

I am scheduled this Fri for a pelvic ultrasound to see if my fibroids have

grown. My Dr mentioned a hysterectomy as a possibiltiy if they did grow. May

i ask you what procedure you had done to remove your fibroids and recovery

time?

Thank you

scar on my belly (little one)

Sorry and I'm 32

Patty,

Her name is " greeneyes " . On the internet, some people prefer to use

a screen name and that's okay.

We are all like you. We are here to look for information too, and at

the same time, to share what we know, to exchange knowledge. There

is give and take here. We are here to learn from each other. It is

a two way street. There are no one expert here. We are it. That's

why we might ask someone her age and who her doctor is. We might be

the same age. We might be in the same situation. And if her doctor

is good, we might want to go see him.

There is an archive of messages at . You can

research all the old messages there. You can reply to messages

directly there instead of using email.

There is also a profile page for members to fill in a name so people

can know how to address them. If people post and reply using

, their user name will show up. If they did

not update the profile either at egroup.com or in their email

software, then no name will show up. Then, it would be nice if they

sign their name at the bottom of the email.

Thanks,

Donna Jung, age 46, New York City area
