Dealing with Fibroid Tumors and Hysterectomy

I kept going to the doctor for digestive issues. Nothing was found. Then finally I went to the gynecologist to replace my iud. Turns out My fibroid tumors (which were the reason I got an iud) had grown and a hysterectomy was recommended. I’m relieved that the issue was diagnosed but I am scared about the surgery. I would love to speak to someone that has been through it.

Curios as to what kind of digestive symptoms you had? I've been having heartburn like issues and what feels like gastritis and sometimes fairly severe abdominal bloating and pressure. I found out I have fibroids several years ago but at that time they were small. I just had another ultrasound today and I'm nervous that they have gotten bigger. I hope everything goes well for you!

I have same problem bloating, heartburn n fibroid I would do the hysterectomy unless you don’t want children, just remove the fibroids, the docts always push it bc sometimes they reoccur
