Heavy Bleeding

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I finally got to my computer to send my post about my fibroids. I am suffering

from heavy bleeding and I am dibilitated because whenever I get up and do my

house work or travel to anywhere (even if it is for five mins) I bleed and pass

huge clots. The only way I can slow or stop the bleeding for a few days is by

sitting down doing nothing. This has been going on for two weeks now.

I finally got an ultrasound and the doctor told me that I have a huge fibroid

that is blocking my endometrial canal and that is what is causing the bleeding

and that if I do not want to have any more children then the best thing for me

to doo is to have a hysterectomy.

I really do not want to have one. My sister has had one and she says it has

recked her life but she just could not take it anymore. I have another sister

that says do not do it she went in for a myo and she is fine now. She just gave

birth last june to a healthy baby boy at 39 yrs old.

I am scared of a hysterectomy because for years my husband has wanted a

daughter. My son is about to turn 21 in April and for some reason since they are

talking about a hysterectomy I now want to have a child.

If anyone has come the this stage with fibroids and has had to address it. Tell

me about there experiences. I will welcome it. Am I crazy or just going thru

perimenopausal symptoms?
