23 and
Scared!
I found out 2 weeks ago that I have 3 Uterine Fibroid
Tumors inside my uterus. Two are small,the big one measures
6 cm and my uterus measures 7 cm. They are concerned because
the big one grew fast, which could mean cancer. Is it
possible for a Fibroid to grow that big in just a few
months? I am going to have my uterus taken out in about 1-2
weeks...
Does
she really need a hysterectomy?
Living with
Fibroids
I'm 35 and just found out that I have a fibroid tumor it
is 3.5 centimeters in size... I am in desperate need of help
if not medically, then emotionally... it's really painful to
have a relationship with my husband... If there is anyone
out there that has gone or is going through this please let
me know how you deal with this on a day to day basis?
How
do you cope with fibroids?
Lupron &
Pregnancy
I took Lupron for 1 month for fibroids. I bleed the whole
time while on it. It never stopped my period... decided to
give up dairy, beef ( minimal animal fat) caffeine and tried
to sick to a low fat diet with whole grains and had fibroid
shrinkage. ...I also would like to know if anyone has had a
false pregnancy test while on Lupron? The test say no but my
symptoms say yes so I'm wondering could it be Lupron in my
system causing the negative result.
Have
you taken Lupron?
Hysterectomy
Recommended
I am 46 years old, I have been told I have a fibroid
tumor, the size of a fifteen week fetus. My gynecologist has
recommended a hysterectomy, because of the size of the
fibroid tumor. I haven't experienced any noticeable symptoms
caused by the tumor. My periods are normal, I have no
abnormal bleeding. I have been told that because of the size
of the tumor, that abdominal hysterectomy is my only option.
My question is, are there any alternatives?
Have
you had an alternative procedure? Pregnancy
Possibilities
I have uterine fibroids. The first time, they...were
relatively easily removed... they recurred. This time they
are in the uterine wall... I've been mostly symptom free for
months... I don't have the bleeding problems I was having. I
do have bloating pretty regularly... My question is this: I
am trying to get pregnant. My doctor said I shouldn't have a
problem getting pregnant or maintaining a pregnancy, I'd
have a slightly greater risk of miscarriage. I'd like to
hear from other women who have been thru this and get an
idea what to expect...
Did
you have fibroids during pregnancy?
Fibroids or
Colon?
I went to the doctor today because of a large mass... It
starts at my pubic bone and goes all the way up to my navel.
It does not hurt at all, but for the 2 weeks before my
period my back aches and I get constipated, and my periods
are very heavy. Now, the doctor mentioned 2 things, fibroids
and colon. Of course I'm praying for the fibroids. I figure
if it was the colon, with the size of this thing I would be
very sick. And besides the backache I feel fine... If anyone
has any experience here, please let me know something, I'm
very nervous.
Does
this sound like fibroids?
Calcified Fibroid on
Bladder
I have a calcified fibroid tumor in my bladder. I had
x-rays taken when I went in to complain about leg pain, the
x-ray tech said there was something on my bladder, doctor
did not mention it. I went to the chiropractor and he took
x-rays and had a radiologist read it and said it was a
calcified fibroid tumor... The chiropractor tried to call
him and discuss it but wouldn't return call... any ideas,
has anyone else had a calcified fibroid tumor?
Have
you had a calcified fibroid tumor?
