Re: menstruation and myo??

[Guest guest]

Yes, you can have your myo during menstruation. Check with your

doctor -- they might have a preference, particularly if your fibroids

are inside your uterine cavity. But my period was due when I had my

myo scheduled, I told my doc, he said it made no difference at all

(my fibroid was entirely on the outside of the uterus).

The funniest part was that I was very concerned pre-surgery about

walking from the pre-op area to the OR without a pad, and then the

possibility of waiting and bleeding on the operating table before the

surgery. I told the wonderfully helpful nurse, who brought me a

disposable semi-paper-fabric pantie/pad thing that was all pre-folded

and it was like some kind of wierd puzzle to figure out how to open

it up and put it on, I was sitting on the toilet in the bathroom

feeling like it was a test I had to pass before I could proceed to

surgery (no, I wasn't yet on any drugs). So then she walked me to the

OR, which turned out to be about 10 feet away, I climbed up on the

table, they had me take off and throw away the silly paper-fabric-

instant pantie thing that I had just put so much effort into putting

on in the bathroom two doors away, and I was out within 10 minutes.

It was really pretty funny.
