Astrology, Spirituality & Alternative Healing

I first had two myomectomies (surgical removal of the fibroids) at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, excellent hospital, but the fibroids grew back both times. However, what embolization does is insert tiny beads in the arteries that feed the fibroids. That blocks the blood flow to the fibroids and they die. I was warned that I could have pain, but with the pain meds they gave me, I was just fine. The discomfort was minimal compared to my previous surgeries and I only had to remain in the hospital overnight.


The incisions that they made were so small that I didn't notice them at first. And though I had an anesthetic, they could wake me up if they chose. My fibroids were pretty bad, so I had three surgeries in seven years. But the embolization cured me for good, no problems since then and that was over ten years ago. I completely recommend it, since it worked for me. And your English is fine. Welcome to DU and good luck with your health issues.
