Lazarus 0 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 ive just thought - your the perfect person to ask about this. my aunties took bad (been having problems with her waterworks and been in pain every now and again) and was admitted into mistake lane on sat night. docs have done tests and a few scans and have diagnosed a 'fibroid' (sp?) and its looking like a hysterectomy type thing is the cure. now - is a 'fibroid' an undeveloped foetus or a regular tumour? or are they both the same? Nah, it's not an undeveloped foetus, it's basically part of the muscle inside the uterus which develops into a benign tumour. They're really common and can be removed individually or if they're causing bad symptoms or are really large, then a hysterectomy is usually the best way to get rid of them. How old is she and has she had children? early 40's and has 3 bairns. and according to a scan this fibroid thing is huge. she filled a 2 litre bag after being catheterised. I've seen a few fibroids removed in theatre and I'm not joking, there was one that was the size of a football. If she's had her bairns and it's causing her loads of bother then they'll probably list her for a hysterectomy. If she has it done at Rake Lane they've got some some lovely theatre staff so tell her not to worry aye - the gyne ward at rake lane is pretty good - me mam had a hysterectomy about 6 months ago and they were great. me mother also works at rake lane and me next door neighbours wife is a theatre nurse there too. bloody small world.
