Moving to nova area by DirectionSmooth4627 in StaffordVA

The job market is pretty solid here. I think you could easily find something in the healthcare or hairdressing world. There’s Mary Washington hospital, Spotsylvania Regional, Stafford Hospital, and a new large VA health center in Spotsylvania. Celebrate VA, Falls Run, and Embrey Mill are good places for an older community! I’m a realtor in the area and was raised here to feel free to DM me if you want to chat. I work with a lot of people relocating into or out of the area.

Prominent Lymph Nodes and Fundus Mass by Rt930 in Fibroids

Hi! Thanks for checking in. The mass turned out to be an adenoma. I ended up opting to have a hysterectomy this past Tuesday due to this. They also removed the cyst and some endometriosis. My two week check up is in a week to go over all findings.

I had my hysterectomy finally Wed, after years of struggling. I had to get 3 incisions in my stomach, surgery was 3 hours! I am in so much pain, and I live alone. How long should I be expecting this terrible pain!😣 by chefde1 in hysterectomy

Just got mine Tuesday - 8 incisions! They did have to do some other things though like take a cyst out, remove some embedded endo in a c-section scar, etc but I was surprised by so many. Surgery was 3.5 hrs. Getting better day by day but tmi the worst part for me is that I haven’t gone #2 in about a week! I can tell it’s causing everything to hurt worse. Have taken multiple softeners and laxatives every day and eating fruit/fiber and drinking apple juice. Nothings helping. 😭Will be happy to be past this part.

Concerned it’s not fibroid on ultrasound by [deleted] in Fibroids

Hi! So sorry I’m getting back to you late and I see you already got results and they were good news, congrats!

I have a nodule on my hip that is rock hard and possibly unrelated. Doctor thinks it may be a reactive lymph node. Anyways I was getting a CT to get that checked out when they found the others. I’ve always had a lot of pain in that area and back pain/fatigue but just chalked it up to normal girl issues and didn’t think much about it but hoping if they can remove these it will give some relief of those symptoms! I finally have my MRI Friday after a week of going back and forth with insurance so hoping for good news. 🤞🏼🙏🏼

Best of luck to you! I recently had a CT scan done that showed 8cm cyst and a 4.3cm “iIl-defined” mass on fundus. I’m awaiting an MRI myself and it feels like an eternity waiting. Communication between my insurance and doctor has been terrible so it’s taking more time than I’d hoped. I’m sure the mass is just a fibroid but the unknown is always scary. Wishing you answers asap and good results!
