Guest guest Posted February 11, 2001 Report Share Posted February 11, 2001 You guys are wonderful..... I really appreciate it. I really need Corky to keep telling me how worthwhile this surgery is - I keep hearing from my adeno support group how it didn't work for some of them, and the pain was even worse afterwards.....

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2001 Report Share Posted February 11, 2001 Well, I don't know if I had adenomyosis or not as I think you need an MRI to properly diagnose that and my insurance company would not approve it. My mother had adenymyosis and was part of the reason she had a hysterectomy. I did have fibroids, which some doctors said caused the problems and which the ablation would not solve. This doctor felt my fibroids were too small to be the whole of the problem and recommended ablation. He was very upfront about it not always being successful and to tell you the truth, I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop or the bubble to burst. He says it won't, but I just can't believe my problems are over, even though it has been over a year. That's how bad they were. Am I making any sense here? The way I looked at it Terri, was that I was undergoing minor surgery in the hopes of avoiding major surgery. If it didn't work, I was prepared to have a hysterectomy. I just have heard and read of so many women who have so many problems after a hysterectomy, that I didn't want to jump into it if I didn't have to. corky Re: Thanks, Di - OT You guys are wonderful.....
