Help

[Guest guest]

I was diagonosed 6 months ago with 3 uterine fibroids. To say the least, my

first gyno and my second opinion gyno have been no help at all. The first one

took an ultrasound and said without a doubt, you need a full hysterectomy......I

wasn't happy with that answer. I called his office and asked if there was some

other procedure he could do. His office answered, no he says you need a full

hysto. Then the nurse was kind enough to add " hysto's are the only procedures

he knows! " I thanked her for her honesty but was shocked at the fact he wouldn't

refer me to another doctor that might have other options.

I finanally found a female gyno (that I was told by my general is on the cutting

edge of procedures) for a second opinion. She said yes that I did have other

options, but if the problems/symptoms weren't not bothering me, that I should

take the do nothing approach. I tried that for a couple of months and my

symptoms have gotten worse! Extremely heavy bleedding, back pain, problems

breathing you name it I have it.

So I went back to her thinking ok I have a couple of options lets talk

again....wouldn't you know it, when I went back the second time, she now decides

that I need a full hysto. I am sure that now some of my systoms are probably

frustration related.

Help does anyone know a doctor in the Los Angeles area that can really help me?

I am desperate! I am 43 no children and about to be married for the first time,

if my fiance doesn't leave me, from not being able to have sex!

Please help does anyone have any suggestions?
