Pain & Anxiety

I have a fibroid measuring 2.5. I feel such abdominal pain... I get anxiety... pains that trickle up or down my inner thighs... feels a little muscular in nature, like a Charlie horse. My biggest fear is never feeling well... I have developed constipation... My Dr. does not want to do anything unless this thing grows to 5. Meanwhile I am continuously down and out... Any suggestions, recommendations? Similar symptoms? I would appreciate all input. Do you ever feel this way?

Natural Progesterone

I heard that using natural progesterone cream will make the fibroids vanish. Is this real or magic?

Looking Pregnant

Can having fibroid tumors make you look like you're four months pregnant? Do fibroids make you look pregnant?
