| More women need to be given ALL the
options for fibroid treatment at the
earliest stage, not just told \\\"oh they
are
common, don\\\'t worry about it\\\"
Hysterectomy should not be pushed as
the only way to treat them. Doctors
and gynaecologists need to learn more
about fibroids and their treatment. The
dismissive attitude toward women and
their fibroids needs to stop. |

| It just a very debilitating condition that
can affect your system both
physically and mentally.low iron
level,short of breath,extreme fatigue
it also the expense of the strongest
pads ,extra washing,ruining clothes
and the social becoming unsocial.
Please make life more acceptable for
women of my age with my condition |

| I have been diagnosed with a 9cm fibroid. Unbeknown to me, I now realise it could have caused the 6 miscarriages I have suffered over the years. Because not a lot was known about the link, and no further investigations were carried out, I lost several babies. Looking back now, if more had been known about the links between fibroids and miscarriages, I need not have suffered so much losing all my babies.
Also, after trying to donate blood in August 2012, it was discovered that I had this fibroid. It made me so Anaemic I was unable to climb more than 4 stairs without getting breathless. I felt like I was 90 years old - I was 45 years old. It affected my whole life and continues to do so. |

| I have had fibroids for years but only
in the last year have I realised that it
could be what has caused my
increasing back pain, urinary leaks,
depression, lack of motivation and
energy, dizziness and bowel problems.
After gently persuading my GP (who
did seem a little naive - which I put
down to age and experience) that I
needed to see a specialist I am now
having a hysterectomy and I am
extremely pleased. The specialist was
wonderful, considered my situation &
options very carefully and we came to
the same agreement very swiftly. I can
say that I feel very well care for under
the NHS and I know that I am in good
hands and feel positive about the
future. I believe that study into any
part of how our bodies work and why
they do what they do is essential and I
would be happy to have explored an
alternative, but knowing my situation I
am pleased to be in the hands of a
very good surgeon. |

| I recently needed a blood transfusion
due to heavy bleeding as a result of
fibroids. I have suffered for years but
have only recently been told about
fibroids following an ultrasound. I am
now waiting for a hysterectomy to put
an end to the misery caused by
fibroids. More research is needed to
ensure future generations are not put
through unnecessary pain and
anguish caused by fibroids. |

| I went to A&E in agony 3 weeks ago
with abdominal pain, they did an
internal and thought they felt an
enlarged uterous. They ask gyny to
come and do ultrasound but nobody
came so the decided to take out
appendix instead just in case this
was the cause. Since found out i
have a fibroid 5.3cm - i'm still of
work still in alot of pain and still
haven't seen a gynaecologist got to
wait another 4 weeks yet. All the
doctor keeps saying is the pain is
post op and you can not get pain
from fibroids! |

| Back in 2001 I almost died due
to a massive Fibroid, I have
had a number of myomectomies
and was also diagnosed with a
sever form of Endometriosis. I
find it appalling that we are
no further along in the
treatment of Fibroids in 2013.
Initial diagnosis takes too
long. The automatic advice for
a hysterectomy is no real
choice in my opinion.This
hasn\\\'t changed from when an
aunt had exactly that happen
to remedy her issues with
fibroids in the 80\\\'s. Now a
sister has also been
diagnosed. Please front up the
research, better early
detection and non-invasive
interventions and treatments. |

| I have been recently diagnosed with fibroids and also recently told by my GP that because I am 50 (and ASSUMED to be near menopause) I will be offered no treatment for them as it will 'spoil their figures'(I assume this means the local NHS trust). More research means more effective and less invasive treatments and perhaps even prevention so hopefully women like me wont just be expected to live, work and cope with the condition without treatment at all |
