Their only option is hysterectomy which isn't an option for me. My symptoms, which are frequent bathroom breaks & my stomach sticks out. I have no pain whatsoever. Unfortunately, this bathroom issue is affecting my work, which requires travel. I'm always dehydrated when I fly & based on upcoming travel, I will be in all day conferences, which will be pretty tough for me. I can either go to the bathroom alot during the conference & miss alot of info, or not drink anything the entire day & pass out from dehydration!

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 Celeste, Hmm, I had posted a reply to this but it looks like it got lost in cyberspace. I recently moved to Atlanta and have a beeline on a good doc here. The doc is part of a 3 sibling doc group that specializes in fibroids and that have developed some cutting edge techniques in less invasive surgery. A bb friend had a number removed by the doc in SF and she was very pleased with her surgery. She was interested in having children post surgery so surgerical expertise was a priority for her. I plan on visiting this doc who is based here in Atlanta, Dr. Ceana Nezhat . Here is the info, http://www.nezhat.org/contact/ best, suz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
