This is my YouTube debut, lol. Check me out as I share a little bit about when and how I was diagnosed with a uterine fibroid tumor. After keeping an eye on it for a couple years, my doctor told me it finally needed to come out because it was pressing on my kidney and causing hydronephrosis. She gave me a few treatment options and I decided on a laproscopic myomectomy.
In the video you’ll see/hear about:
- Tests my doctor ordered to diagnose my the condition
- Treatment options
- Wait and see for 6 months
- Depo Lupron injections
- Abdominal myomectomy
- Laproscopic myomectomy
- Footage from the day of surgery
- How I’m doing after surgery
Here’s my story:
Do you suffer from fibroids? Have you had a procedure done? Please share you story and/or ask questions.
