FAS outside the States?

Is there anyone practicing these techniques on my side of the world? I am in New Zealand. I have large fibroids (up to 5.5cm) and my gyn wants me to have a hysterectomy. I have had a return to almost normal periods since my diagnosis as a result of natural progesterone & estrogen supplements.

I think I should leave it alone whilst things are OK, but was wondering just in case I take a turn for the worse if I have any opportunity of having this operation in either NZ or Australia? Obviously the cost of the op & travel makes the thought of going over there for it prohibitive, but out of curiosity can you give me a ballpark figure for the cost?

I have a support group for women with Fibroids on onelist.com, one of our recent members (Michaela) has been full of praise for your work – keep it up!

Elizabeth.

Dear Elizabeth:

What a truly small world this is! And what a great idea you had to establish the support group. You never know where help might be coming from. I have been working for the past 2 weeks – my work requires being on my feet a lot, working with customers – but I feel great, so something must have been done right. I hope we can chat some more in the near future, I am always available.
Keep in touch,
Mica
