Guest guest Posted December 28, 2001 Report Share Posted December 28, 2001 Yes, your pre-op instructions are typical. The doctor does not want any substance you put in your body to interact with the medications you will be getting in the hospital. Because they are not regulated by the FDA (or anyone else), many herbal mixtures are as harmful, or even more harmful than prescription drugs when mixed with other meds. And yes, any obgyn can do a myomectomy. The issues are whether they are experienced with myos, and do they like to do them, and are they good at it. One of the gyns I consulted with before I decided to have UAE said removing multiple fibroids is fun for him. " Just like popping pimples after you get the first one out " , is exactly what he said. Had I opted for myo, I probably would have had him for my surgeon. Carol __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
