Wanting a successfull myomectomy not sure if possible???

[Guest guest]

I would like to here back from anyone who has been diagnosed with a large

submucous fibroid in the lower back portion of the cervic. I have been told

by many doctors that my fibroid is in a very difficult place to remove by

myomectomy and my rsik for hemmoraghing from removal is higher than most. I

am still having heavy bleeding and clotting even after a March UAE. My

bleeding is better but at least every 6 to 8 days I start bleeding again

sometimes less than that but at least twice a month of heavy bleeding some

time or another.

I have gotten sick and run down twice since my March UAE . I would really

like to hear from anyone who has been told that even a HYSTERECTOMY would be

a difficult surgery due to the location and size of their fibroid.

Thank you

patty-

sorry i can't help you I just wanted to respond. you've actually been told

that even a hysterectomy would be hard because of the location of the

fibroid? i've never heard that before. what are you supposed to do then?

suffer? I'm sorry to hear of your problems.

I'm not sure if that sounds right. I think seeking out a specialist is in order

for another opinion.

Yes, I had a myomectomy several weeks ago, one very large cervical fibroid,

located mostly on the outside of the cervix, was told this is in a difficult

area.

All went well, no bleeding, I am very pleased i finally had this done.

The surgeon was a specialist. I was told prior to surgery by other doctors

that this is very exacting surgery.

If you find the right doctor you should be okay.
