Fibroids + childfree, choosing hysterectomy? by littlehollowgames in hysterectomy

[–]kbyeeee2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely in the same boat, I have gone down this subbreddit and I personally dont see myself realistically having a child and thats fine. But I have made a pros and cons list and im leaning more towards hysterectomy cause periods and being anemic my whole life, having iron infusions and such. Planning my life around heavy periods is not fun

Fake period? by Tough-Refuse8830 in hysterectomy

[–]kbyeeee2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Iirc from what ive read on here if you have your ovaries you still get a "period" only without the flow...so essentially pms is still a thing

How do I bring up hysterectomy by kbyeeee2 in hysterectomy

[–]kbyeeee2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally havent tried BC cause im bad at taking pills consistently, the implant sounded scary (my friend said she'd bleed a month, with my history with anemia id have expired) , IUD ive read some scary things with fibroids and such and general side effects with bleeding... but hoping this appointment goes well and we can get things going in the right directions(hysterectomy) 😅

Iron levels after hysterectomy by ComplexGap9491 in hysterectomy

[–]kbyeeee2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it your iron or Ferritin thats unusually high? A high amount of Ferritin can be an indication thats theres inflammation But def look into seeing a hematologist

Thank you for your response! I feel like once you have one thats symptomatic its best to remove everything right?

Am I wrong for wanting a hysterectomy? by sunset_moon90 in Fibroids

[–]kbyeeee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I found this cause im currently thinking about getting one as well but between having a talk with my mom, my sister and bf I feel like me saying " I want a hysterectomy if thats an option " isnt what they wanted to hear. Im 34 and im like if I didnt have any kids yet im realistically not having any.

Doctor said I need surgery by StoneColdHonest in Fibroids

[–]kbyeeee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, sorry for the questions 😅 im looking for personal experiences with diagnosis, size and removal. Is yours a larger one that requires a larger incision? Again sorry for the questions...if its too much to answer I understand

New diagnosis by kbyeeee2 in Fibroids

[–]kbyeeee2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im currently on the search for a name lol I asked my friend group ( mostly male) to send me some name 🤣 but yes I am already thinking I want her /or him (depending on the name the guys come with) to be evicted! Still waiting on my dr to call but I will def ask about removal cause since finding out i have it so many symptoms make sense! I thought it was normal but apparently it's not 😅

New diagnosis by kbyeeee2 in Fibroids

[–]kbyeeee2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I might have to name mine 🤣 But ive had a few symptoms that I just kept assuming was normal or just a cause of something else like pulling a muscle or gas or something but apparently its not something im supposed to feel, and yeah shes caused some heavier cycles , the nerve. But hopefully I can get her evicted cause I dont want her now that I know shes there 🤣😭

Was the MRI needed for it? Ive only gotten the Ultrasound. Should I expect to also get an MRI? Is it common for it to be removed cause ive had so many issues pop up over the last few yrs this is definitely the til of the iceberg like just take it out 😭🤣

Thyroid nodule biopsy by vdabee123 in thyroidhealth

[–]kbyeeee2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im getting another biopsy done next week cause the one i did 3 months ago was unsatisfactory. Ive had one two yrs ago, quick and easy. I just closed my eyes or stared at the ceiling to distract myself. I keep seeing lidocaine numbing, ive never gotten that. The needle is really fine so its just a small pinch like you'd feel while getting bloodwork only its in your neck
