hello everyone, my name is tina and i live in kent uk. After the

birth of my son ben 4and a half years ago i had retained products,

and then got a very seriouse infection i was given a d& c to removew

retained products. Two weeks later i was still in a great deal of

pain and was taken in for another d&c. I have since been diagnosed

with as, and feel if my world has fallen appart i have had 2

hysteroscopies without much sucess but i have read that a balloon

should be inserted afterwards to stop the scar tissue forming again

but no balloon was used in my case, and the local hospital has signed

me off now so i dont know where to turn next does anyone know of any

excellent consultants in the uk as my old one didnt seem to know much

about ashermans and i cant give up hope of having another baby. can

anyone help??????? please.

Dear Tina,

I live in London and have had excellent, successful surgery for severe

AS with Mr.Lower in Harley Street (also Consultant Gynae at Barts)

Although my cavity was clear after surgery in UK I also followed up with

surgery with an A list doc. in Germany - Dr.Gallinat, just to make sure

things were o.k. Dr.Gallinat confirmed that Mr.Lower had done a very

good job so I could certainly recommend him if you want to pursue

treatment in UK. Otherwise Dr.Gallinat in Germany has helped a number of

UK patients, including one who has just had a baby. In my case my lining

is very patchy now so I don't know if I will be able to have more

children (I already have a daughter) - but I have just finished my

hormone treatment and will be ttc this month.

We have a UK group here which is also great for info. Lesia can add you

on the group if you contact her.

Please feel free to ask any questions you need to. I found very little

info. in UK until I found this group but hopefully now you can get all

the support and help you need. Good luck with your AS journey.
