Guest guest Posted November 29, 1999 Report Share Posted November 29, 1999 Dear , Check out this site: http://www.intradesign.com/forums/fibmyo/config.pl? They have compiled a physicians list. You may have to go back a bit on the date. You can also contact the HERS foundation (they have a website) and ask for a referral to the doctors on their list who are highly skilled. I'm 46 and just had my 18 week fibroids removed in the Boston area and am doing great. Good luck to you. Tish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about anesthesia - general or epidural? And what does he say about regrowth and adhesions...any percentages on those? I want myo but do not want a high probabilty of repeat surgery. Some of the docs say those chances are low due to their techniques, while other doctors I have consulted say there is a high chance of needing a repeat surgery due to either adhesions or regrowth..and they site this as the reason to do hyst. If I could find a myo doc who has had low stats on regrowth and adhesions, the way Hufnagel claimed she did...she claimed less than 1%, as opposed to the 30% figure given in medical literature, I would have the myo. Also, did you have a PPO? If not, how did you justify having myo with him to your insurance? Thanks, Jeannie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2000 Report Share Posted December 13, 2000 Hi ! I was reviewing the egroups messages from the past and I came across the topic of ADD/kids with liver disease....back from the past before you were a member. Not sure if you came across it yet so I thought that I would give you a jump start to where the subject begins. Go to message # 4030. I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season!!! (Same to the group:) Sincerely, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
