I hope ...I thank you for your thoughtful comments. I hope for the sake of all women that more research will be done in the fibroid treatment arena, but I guess given all the diseases that plague women, there's so much that requires medical attention, unfortunately.Robin Gorman Newmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06816036736416667540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38232942.post-85395290392588054932007-12-31T16:00:00.000-08:002007-12-31T16:00:00.000-08:00As someone who has had a Uterine Arterial Emboliza...As someone who has had a Uterine Arterial Embolization (aka UFE) for something other than fibroids (post-birth bleeding - it was that or an emergency hyst - at the time, the UAE was experimental for that situation, I was only the 5th person in my state to have it done) I will say do your homework thoroughly.<BR/><BR/>There are downsides to any procedure that will help the fibroids... but from what I know of fibroids from friends, there comes a point where the downsides of the surgeries are less impactful than the downsides of fibroids themselves.<BR/><BR/>This site is worth looking at:<BR/>http://www.uterinearteryembolization.com/<BR/>as is:<BR/>http://www.hersfoundation.org/<BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry you are suffering with fibroids... it is amazing to me how such a pervasive issue still has so little focus or medical study.Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05846843310637063345noreply@blogger.com
