Petitioner's Opinions To Support For A Call For Fibroid Research & Education Act.
Signature No. Petitioner Locality Opinions
2310.  M.F Buffalo Grove More research needs to be done with fibroids. All the doctors I have seen seem to be uninformed of all my symptoms and just blame everything on aniemia which I am no longer anemic. Also woman who loose the option to have children is awful.
2309.  S Kasoa
2308.  H.A Tilbury
2307.  D London
2306.  C.K Liverpool Awareness of fibroid symptons and knowledge of the available medical solutions need to be increased among the medical community. Women with symptomatic fibroids need to be supported medically and personally. Fibroid sufferers often suffer in silence for many years before help becomes available. Living with fibroids can be physically and mentally exhausting, and can be treatable. Thank you for listening. Claire (Recent successful UFE (NHS) for 21 fibroids)
2305.  H.C London
2304.  R.C S-O-T Fibroids affect around 25% of the population, yet they are hardly mentioned in the media or online articles about women’s health issues. There is little funding for treatment or research, leading to a range of treatments that cannot/will not be performed by some doctors. This means that many women’s fertility is taken away prematurely due to a lack of skill or awareness by some doctors. Many doctors are unsympathetic to this condition too and cannot/will not believe the effect this has on many women’s quality of life.
2303.  R.M Manchester Would just like to know where they come from and how we could avoid
2302.  S.R Feltham, Middlesex
2301.  A.O Sheffield Fibroids can make women house bound a few days every 3-4 weeks (due to varying female cycles) The blood loss is so severe it can cause Anaemia - which is then another disorder that then has to be treated in itself! Gynaecologist’s will not help until they reach 5cm’s, they just send you away like you are exaggerating the symptoms - by 5cm’s it’s been years of pain & impossibley ridiculous bleeding - please help I can not work due to this causing me Anxiety, pain, upset, bed rest etc etc etc
2300.  K.D Uttoxeter I had a 5cm Fibriod my GP was great and so was my consultant even though I waited over a year for my Operation I was told by my GP in April 2016 I had a fibriod I had my first appiontment at hospital 10th May 2016 I had my Lap Myo on 10th May 2017. I glad to say my life is back to normal but I strongly belive there needs to be more reseach and people need to be more aware of Fibriods
2299.  C.C Ely It's taken nearly four years to be diagnosed with fibroids. I have had my symptoms continually dismissed by my doctor and only by pure chance of seeing a locum doctor did I get referred for a scan or blood test. Heavy bleeding needs to be taken seriously as it has had a huge effect on my quality of life. Being fobbed off with the only options of the pill or coil without any investigation Is generalising women's problems and putting them at huge risk.
2298.  J.B Long Buckby
2297.  Z Derby I am suffering with fibroids for the second time this year, please more research and awareness is required to try to understand and treat this awful problem that affects so many women\\\'s lives
2296.  N.W Lincoln
2295.  L.M Bexhill-On-Sea Had my symptoms not been dismissed by gp for 3yrs, open Myomectomy could have been avoided. Millions of women suffering all around the world. Pls help!
2294.  D.S Tipton After a year of hell, before which i had never heard of fibroids, I am having a hysterectomy on 5th Jan 2018. Please help to get research for fibroids so women are not suffering, had I been a dog they would’ve put me down.
2293.  E.G Royston
2292.  P.F POTT SHRIGLEY 33% of the female population should sign this petition
2291.  K.R Cambridge
