Guest guest Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 Hi I'm curious, where in Canada are you? I am from Montreal and Toronto. Although I live in Arizona now, when I found out about my fibroid I contact my Gyn in Toronto and my Mother's Gyn in Toronto. I considered going back to Canada to have the procedure because of OHIP vs. Insurance. Neither sid that they wouldn't do Myo. or that Myo. wasn't done in Canada.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 " My gyn also said that they still don't do myos in Canada " WHAT??!! No myomectomies in Canada? Your doctor is obviously lying to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 Hi , I had a Myo done in Toronto, Ont.. What is your Dr talking about?? There are many hospitals that perform UAE and MYO;s, more so than hysterectomies.. melissa preston wrote: Hi I'm curious, where in Canada are you? I am from Montreal and Toronto.
