Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Hi ladies, I'm going to post this message on EMBO group, too. Sorry if you read my same messages... Sometimes I read your post with tears what we all have to gothrough... Myo to D&C to UAE to Hysteroscopic surgery! My life in past 2 months is on a roller coaster. After Ultrasound result, first gyno doctor suggested to do myo, second gyno doctor suggested D&C and watch and wait. Both doctors are against UAE. Iwent to IR for consultation for UAE, he said my case is good candidate for UAE. He suggested to do MRI before UAE. After MRI result, he called tellingme that submucolfibroid (2.5 cm) has a stalk and UAE is not a good option. Even I do UAE, I may need another surgery like D&C after UAE. He suggested to do hysteroscopic surgery by gynodoctor. I met third gyno doctor last week with all of my result. She agreed Ishould do hysteroscopic surgery, but she doesn't do this kind of surgery. She recommended another gyno doctor who is experienced withHysteroscopic surgery. Now, I am going to meet this doctor to talk about surgery soon. I have a few fibroids (1cm to 4cm, in Ultrasound result says 7 plus small ones, MRI said 3 plus number of small ones) and my symptons are heavy bleeding, pain and clots. A few times in last year, I soaked my pants and hadembarrasing experiences. I posted last month about my new diagnosis and my concerns. I was ready to go for UAE after I met IR. Now, I am going to hysteroscopic surgery. I researched this surgery and I basically understand what theprocedure is. I'll be removing one submucol fibroid. The rest of fibroids will be remain as they are. Doctor warned me that they may grow. Is there anyone who had this surgery tell me how long the recovery time will be? 3 days? 1 week? Doctor told me only a few days. I have to plan my work schedule... Also, I greatly appreciate if you tell me your experience and any suggestions about hysteroscopic surgery. Thank you.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 My recovery from hysteroscopic surgery was about 12 hours. My surgery was about 9am and I was home from the hospital at noon. I didn't need to take any pain meds after I left the hospital. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
