Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Thanks for pointing out the other group. I don't want to sound like a grouch here but there are some conversations that might be more appropriate for the ttcmyomectomy group. For me, recovering from surgery while maintaining my career and personal relationships is a lot to think about and I since I am not TTC I can't take the time to read through posts about TTC and breastfeeding etc. on this group, which is supposed to be fibroid related. Sorry if this sounds harsh....we all love babies and we love good news about new babies and I am curious about post myo pregnancy and delivery, but for me, right now I just wish that this group was more about fibroids than about TTC.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 I understand that some people may be frustrated w/some of the topics of conversation that is posted on this site, but they ARE in fact related to fibroids and just because in one person is not TTC doesn't mean that there aren't a bunch of others that still are. The questions and topics of this group does have a moderator and she approves or dispproves the postings. One must remember that there are people all around the world in this group and some of them have had myo's are TTC and also have reaccuring fibroids as well which is definately a hot topic. The members of this group age range start at 19 as from what I understand of the women that have been discussing their problems and concern. Some have had UFE's and are TTC as well, so should there be another message board for that as well? The common interest here is that we all are battling fibroids, whether what it is presently doing to us or how it has affected us after certain treatment types. As for the breastfeeding topic, I honestly don't know too much of that. I do know however I've brought up questions about breastfeeding b/I have 3 large fibroids and I'm lactating but I'm not pregnant and wanted to know if anyone else also has problems w/their prolactin level. Fibroids is a big issue for all women and its important that we support each other instead of pushing the women that don't meet what one person feels is a relevant concern under this board into another one. > Thanks for pointing out the other group.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 -Could you tell me how to find this group. Also, is it just for people who have already had their myoor is it open to people who are having one in the near future? -- In uterinefibroids , lstegallathome@a... wrote: > There is a Yahoo group for ttcmyomectomy. There are only a few ladies on the board right now. Some of them, like me are past members of the Uterine Fibroid group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 TTC is a very big issue, certainly huge enough to support another group. As I said, I am interested in such issues and I do not want posts about that issue to stop but there was a time (around January) when almost all posts here were about talking about TTC and pregnancy in such a way that it was a stretch to say that it was related to fibroids. The questions and answers did not even seem to relate back to fibroids. I read some and ignored some. For me personally, that trend was difficult to get through. I was recently post op with so much concern but my posts received very little attention compared with questions about conception and pregnancy. The main reason that I pointed out that some people might consider the other board is that I realize that some people might feel the opposite of what I feel. They may feel that there is not enough TTC discussion here. One board cannot be all things to all people and topics that are such huge life issues might have to be divided into a few categories. I had not seen your post about lactating and fibroids and I was not referring to it. I apologize for anything that sounded offensive. I wanted people to know that another forum exists and that they might consider using it in addition to this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
