large mass diagnosis

[Raeskyring]

hello all, just find out I have a 15cm fibroid that has been causing me issues. Anyone else had the same and successful removal?

Thanks

I had a hysterectomy and that solved all my problems. I was a few years older than you and sure didn’t plan on having more children. I wish I hadn’t waited so long the fibroid made traveling pretty uncomfortable. I now take bio identical hormones from a compounding pharmacy. I wish you well!

I am so happy for you! How was your fibroid discovered, if I may ask. Doctors have told me that imaging in useless. Thanks for your help.

imaging is definitely not useless, how else do your Drs think they are going to make a diagnosis.

I have yearly CT scans to monitor both fibroids and ovarian cysts and the results are very accurate in terms of measuring changes in size.

Hi Raeakyring,

Just wondering how you are getting on with your fibroid appointments?

I have a 9cm Intramural Fibroid which is causing lots of issues. I've had 2 ultrasound scans and now just waiting to see the Gynae team for a plan 🤞

Hope you have some answers for yours x
