Hi, My name is Betty I was diagnosed with having fibroid just last

week. I have had a period twice in one month. and Im experiencing

back pain, and a lot of cramping when I have my periods. I have 4

children my youngest just turned one. Im not interested in having

anymore. But im not ready to have a hysterectomy either. Do anyone

know of any good doctors in the Philadelphia Area?

What kind of treatment are you interested in? I don't really get an

idea of all your symtoms, but if you are interested in UFE, Dr.

Kirsch is the leader in that procedure and he's in Philidelphia!!

Lucky you if you go that route. He writes on the Embo board group

and is the " MAIN GUY " Done over 1700 procedures. You may have

other routes. How big is your fibroid? Are you anemic from

bleeding a lot? UFE is excellent for bleeding problems that stem

from fibroids. Jen
