Alternative to Operating

I am 51 and have been diagnosed with fibroid 12 years ago. I never had any problems until a year ago i am suffering from severe pelvic and leg pains where i have problems walking at times. I am going into menopause and sweating profusely, experiencing more intense pain and the fibroid has grown very large. I am also losing plenty weight, I really don't want to have surgery. A friend had surgery and now is on dialysis, another had a blood clot and never survived. Is there any alternative therapy that can be used?
