Guest guest Posted May 21, 2001 Report Share Posted May 21, 2001 jae- I guess in your place I might get names of doctors in the captial,three maybe, from different sources, and go and have it out. Some women who have waited have had problems. The size of your fibroid does sound on the medium to large end. And it is bothering you quite a lot. Having it out would be what I would do. Mine is maybe just a bit bigger. I plan on have a laparoscopic myomectomy sometime in June. My next choice after that would be an abdominal myomectomy. I would like to keep my uterus. Wish you relief soon- Audrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
