Well thanks for your concern and support Pandoras,the truth is I have had fibroids diagnosed in the past but had no trouble with them before,it could be them playing up now,I don't know,I just told the doctor I had been through the menopause and got bad period pains one night,so bad I had to take paracetemol and just a faint spot of blood and he said I had to get checked out for cancer.Which when you hear that you think the worse.
And the angina is an long time since 2008 and it stopped for years and started again around the beginning of this year which is why I wondered if it is linked to the menopause.
I am sorry you went through that with the painful chest and ribs.Yes,you are right it is best to know what we are dealing with especially down below.I hope I don't need an operation like a hysterectomy.I live alone and I hear you need six weeks with no exertion or heavy lifting and there is no one else can do my chores.
We will soon find out.I will keep this thread updated.Thanks again for your interest Pandora!
