Jeanne, submucosal fibroid

[Guest guest]

Hi Jeanne,

I am really concerned that they would even consider a hyst for this! I

had me submucosal fibroid shaved down via hysteroscopy in November. There is

still some left in the Uterine wall but we are watching and waiting (I should

be in Menopause soon). My symptoms Bleeding, clots, etc.are completely gone

which is the goal usually. My Dr. didn't even consider Hysterectomy as an

option.

Are you a position to find another Dr.? From what I was told as they shave

the fibroid down some of it from the Uterus comes forward so they can get more

of it. I know I have some left from an ultrasound done a month later but I am

completely free of symptons. If you can't get another opinion what about

expressly forbidding a hyst? You do not have to have a procedure done that you

do

not want. There's plenty of articles online about hystocopic resection's. Get

informed and don't consent to a hyst if you don't want one.

Unfortunately it is not unusual to have hyst recommended for

submcusousal fibroids. I had a submucousal fibroid that was on a

stalk and the first doctor I saw recommended hyst. Fortunately I

found this group and learned about resection AND was able to find a

doctor in my area who knew how to do it.
