Guest guest Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 HI Good to hear the positive results from the UFE. I had mine almost 1 month ago and the bleeding has absolutely stopped. What a relief. I had a 10cm fibroid. I had a smooth procedure and slow recovery due to the anemic state I was in becuase of so much blood loss. The last episode was " breakthrough " bleeding! Very frightening. Feeling great and it's all in the past. I am waiting for my period now. I skipped this months' which my IR said was completely normal. Were your periods normal and on time or did it take your body a bit of time to get back on track?

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Natalyhh, I don't know if you saw my e-mail (UFE/UAE inquiry), but could you describe your procedure? Was it a UFE or UAE or are they the same? Thanks Sharon --- Natalyhh natalyhh@...> wrote: > I had my embolization 2 years ago, and always said > that I'd update > you all on what is happening.
