Guest guest Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 Im so glad this group is here. I cant wait to get home at night to read the day's postings. Thankyou to the folks who interjected their humor last week when I was so down. Iam turning 50 next week and I have only been aware I have fibroids for a couple of months. I'm past childbearing and ready to be a grandma so some of my issues obviously are different but I worry about many of the same things, adhesions, sexual function, buttoning my pants again!! I saw my ob gyn doc last week and she doesnt seem to think the pain I'm having is entirely fibroid. The pain sometimes feels like a crowbar is tearing my hips apart, in the back and my right hip mostly but also up above the hip, hot sensations down the leg and tenderness. Abdomen is swollen and I feel ungainly and bloated. Has anyone heard of a connection between sciatica and uterine pain?? I have 4 fibroids (nothing large), 2 golf balls and a ping pong ball sized, and a degenerating tumor that is dilating my cervix. It is now quite small (cherry sized). At first they thought it was a 5th fibroid and the 4th one (small orange-sized) had degenerated. How accurate are those ultrasounds?? Should I ask for a second opinion? This visit she said she wants me to see a back specialist for av evaluation for the pain. I hate hydrocodone they prescribe for pain and over the counter options werent taking the edge off so I went to homeopathy. I found a connection right away...kali carbonium for sciatica/uterine pain. In 3 days I had a pain-free nights rest and I can sit in the chair again...funny thing is I can FEEL my uterus and have more cramping but nothing I cant handle... Huge improvement...placebo or connection? ?? Inquiring minds want to know!! Amyone else heard this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
