Good Morning Dr and Staff, “Multiple fibroids impress upon the endometrial stripe. An anterior fundal uterine fibriod measuring approx. 1.8 x 2.3 cm is seen impressing upon the endometrial stripeas as is a 3.4 x 4.9 cm posteriorly situated fubroid involving uterine body and fundas. Additional fibroids also impress upon the endometrial stripe.” My questions, if you don’t mind. I have never had them mention the endometrial stripe before, is there a possibility that I have had new, additional pain because of these? I am experiencing back cramps (similiar to labor pains), I am having to urinate more frequently and am feeling more bloated. The new Doctor has basically given me the brush off, telling me that at my age (46) I should sit back and wait for “the change” or have a hysterectomy. I do not plan on children, so that is not an issue, I just don’t like the idea of such radical surgery. Is it possible I also have endometrios? Would it show up on an MRI? What can be taken for cramps (BAD ONES) also I am feeling my legs get numb when I sit too long. thank you again for your time, your education and your encouragement. It is refreshing. thank you |

Dear Doctor: On a recent ultrasound my uterus measured 9.1 x 4.7 x 5.9 cm. How big is this measurement in layman’s terms? |
