Guest guest Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Hi Kim! So glad to hear that your myo went well! Rosie and I missed you at the DC-area meetup, but had a feeling that your surgery was coming up soon. Your doctor sounds wonderful, and is someone I will keep in mind if it turns out that surgery becomes the best option for me. Congrats on getting the squatters removed, and I hope you have a speedy recovery! For all DC-area women, the next meetup for us will be Saturday, May 22nd, at 4:30. We have been meeting in Arlington, VA, but could move the location if that isn't suiting people. If you're feeling up to it by then, Kim, it would be awesome to see you and hear first-hand all about your experience. Be well! - rika23 @ excite.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 - Thanks for the encouragement. I actually DID come to the Meet-up, and waited around for few minutes in the Cafe in and Noble. I knew I couln't stay for long b/c my monthly sistacircle meeting was the same evening. I hope I'm well enough by the end of the month to come out to May's meet up. And YES LORD, I am glad those buggers are gone too. And I only thought I had 5 or 6 of them....Wait until you see the poloroids..When I've showed friends and family, they freak out. The biggest one looks like I had a several month old fetus on my womb! I cannot believe those horrific things grow in our bodies. They must be STOPPED!!!

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 You can use cocoa butter or pure vitamin E ..you can buy the capsules @ any Pharmacy. Just pop the capsules open and rub onto incision. It does wonders. Wishing you a speedy recovery cyberdeeva70@... wrote: Anything anyone can recommend to prevent scarring by the cut now that the incision is starting to close up?

If not, please do so. Members of meetups are not necessarily also members of this group and everyone who registers on that site for a Meetup has an expectation of the designated site being THE meetup site. Unless, that is, you do due diligence with getting the info online for those other members. Carla dionne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Hello all, I have tried to keep the information consistent on both forums, so hopefully no one is missing out on the info about and proposed changes in meeting, etc. There is a message up now on the meetup site about possibilities of alternates dates/ times -- thank you Carla for the reminder. The only way to be able to officially change things, I think, is to become a meetup " plus " member, but I am not in a position (finacially) to be able to take that on. If there is someone else who would like to, though, it would be nice to have the flexibility! Over the course of the last couple of meetings we have found that the dates and times proposed by the website have not worked for those of us that have been in attendance, hence the changes. Hopefully there isn't too much confusion. It would be great to get more DC area women to come to the meetings... the response on the meetup board site from area women has been pretty low.... As always, feel free to email me off list if you have any questions, etc. rika23 @ excite.com (minus the speaces). Be well! - > , > > Have you put this information on the D.C. Meetups Message board?

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Hi Kim,i am so glad that everything went well wiyh your surgery,take care and take it easy so that you will heal very well.bye and GOD BLESS Rosie cyberdeeva70@... wrote: There were a total of 14 fibroids removed/burned from my uterine area. The largest one looks to be the size of a 3 month fetus. She actually gave me the poloroids. I was absolutely flabergasted that all of those aliens had taken over my body for who knows how long. She said there were some coming dangerously close to my Fallopian tubes, so it's good that we got in there in time. She also found a moderate amount of Endometriosis as well, which she burned off and will treat on an outpatient basis probably with Lupron.
