{{Robin}} My mom had to have a hysterectomy for the same reason. She was able to keep her ovaries, I think, which kept her hormones stable for longer - something to consider, I guess.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

The doctor in Laura's link being names "Spies" made me reread one sentence several times before I understood it.

Good lord, tiggy, no wonder your tires have been needing attention!
I know, right? i'm sure there are even more evil things lurking in the gravel portion of the driveway. that was only from the very top.
I think tiggy is probably right. Thanks!
heh. you're welcome!
{{{Robin}}} i feel your pain. i have a feeling i'll have a hysterectomy by the time i'm 30 thanks to lovely endometriosis. please take care of yourself.
FUUUUCK! Is there any way to figure out where those giant ass nails came from?
well...the only thing we can really figure is the railroad tracks. people go over them way too quickly and there are quite a lot of construction trucks. *shrug* most of them looked like roofing nails and that is exactly what was in my tire.
congratulations Jessica!!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is funny. If you go to the DeLorean Motor Company website and do a search at their online store (from [link] ) for 'flux', you will get a match for 'Flux Capacitor.'

Our wings are not tired.
Both of my sisters and my mother had hysterectomies. Mom and Judi in their early 30s, Mona in her early 50s. I was the only one that made it through menopause with no issues. Never really had ouchy girl problems, just a bunch of miscarriages. My theory was that my lack of producing proper hormones kept me from having the issues the other women in my family had to endure.

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you
Oh, Robin, that's so tough. But there's a couple of things to consider. First of all, for hysterectomies for fibroids, there's usually no reason to remove the ovaries, so you probably won't need hormone replacement or anything like that.
And if they don't need remove the ovaries, they can remove the uterus laparoscopically through the vagina. No huge abdominal incision, a greatly reduced recuperation time, and just a lot less disruption of your life.

CASS! Brocken World fixed the title. (Though the writing remains... stubbornly and bravely appalling in a way that remains bafflingly appealling.)
Robin, my mother's been pretty happy with her hysterectomy. She had the incision style, and recovery was a little rough, but I think she wishes she'd had it done years before.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Khaaaaaan!
Nooooooooooooooooooooo! And I was just about to look for crack too. (Had my e open and everything) Damn, of all the things they could have fixed? The title misspell was really the most charming of all the things wrong there.
Robin, my mom had her hyster ages ago with the ovaries remaining and she's not had any troubles after. It was for uterine cancer. She's woofty as all hell, lovely and even a lurker (but not in this thread unless invited specifically) if you ever wanted to ask questions. I can pass them along or you can e her.
