No advice to offer, Suela, but much sympathy with the miseries and all my digits crossed that the IUD does right by you for as long as you need.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

To be fair, my mom actually was diagnosed with endometrial cancer last year. And other than the stroke she had because she went off blood thinners to have surgery (um, yeah...one thing after another, she's now had four or more stents put in her? But it was a v minor stroke and she's fine and you probably don't have her heart issues!!!) she's doing well...

It sounds like now is not a good time for major surgery; here's to the IUD working out very well!

thanks, all. I think I'll be ok in the short term, anyway. It'll be nice to stop bleeding for a bit, anyway...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am a fan of the IUD, esp the not bleeding part.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I got the IUD 4 years ago because of fibroids and pain. It helped a lot. I'm hoping to be well into menopause before it gets uninstalled next fall.

My IUD has made my life so much better. The crazy bleeding is gone. The horrific cramps are gone. Even the PMS is gone. I wish it had been suggested earlier in my life.
I hope yours helps you.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Here's to your soon-to-be-improved health, Consuela!

Our wings are not tired.
Here's to the IUD doing its job. May you have quick and effective relief.
My mom and both of my sisters had hysterectomies. I was spared those issues and had an uneventful and early menopause.
