Thank you for realtime so much!
I just feel frustrated beyond belief, this bleeding has been going on for many months and I have passed out a few times and I'm sure it's from the blood loss. Just to get to the point of getting a scan has taken endless GP visits being told I am in menopause and to just put up with it (try that on 10 hour shifts in open plan offices full of men with no lockers in bathroom, I am trying to hide pads and tampons in my clothing but not always pockets so can only wear clothes with pockets etc).
When i had the scan it showed 4 fibroods and 2 ovarian cyste, the GP daod thats Your problem right there refertes me to a Gyno who then told me ot was a perfectst normal scan of a healthy uterus! The gyno said she would put me in for endometrial biopsies under full aneastatic in day hospital and I said can't you do anything to fix this? The reply was that first she would need to take a look. Then a second procedure booked in. However yesterday I get the theatre form and it has on it Hysteroscopy, myenosvopy, polyposcppy, mirena insertion.
I asked my endo snout the mirena as I have had auto immune thyroid disease for last 26 years he said with mirena he will increase my thyroid meds. The mirena the he gyno gyno said might help control the bleeding. Might. The whole thing seems incredibly vague. I had leg surgery which was supposed to fix my leg after it was crushed in a car accident and I woke up from that with permanent issues. I now need another op to shorten the leg as one is longer than the other. I no longer have a lot of faith in medial system after 4.5 years of leg rehab and wearing a leg brace, I don't want to do this surgery and be in an even worse position.
How can multiple doctors say that the fibroids and cysts are the problem and then the gyno say that they are too small as only 1.5 cm diameter so not the cause of any of this? Does this gyno know what she is doing? I am really confused and don't want to put my body through more trauma for no outcome....
