Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Well after reading everything I could find including all of the wonderful information on this list, and getting a second opinion, I've decided to go ahead with a myo. I have one 11x9 cm fibroid, symptoms include bladder pressure/urgency, lower belly ache, and on and off digestive problems. I'm almost 43 and my Mom didn't finish menopause until her late 50s so it feels like too long to wait it out. I don't want more children but I also want to keep all my original parts as long as I can! My second opinion confirmed my first and convinced me that the original Gyn I saw is awesome She's a fertility specialist and performs myos frequently and has almost no conversions to hysterectomy. I'm glad I had the second opinion if only to increase my confidence in doctor number 1. I'm reading everything I can find about surgery prep, what to take, what to prepare for, and recovery. Trying to keep the nerves at bay! Mostly getting my office ready for a stretch without me is taking most of my energy and getting my garden ready is taking the rest Thanks to everyone for all the information, inspiration, and encouragement!
