sol,
Yes it was a nightmare. Finally after the estrogen was built up I was
finally just on progesterone only. For a lot of women that is unusual. High
estrogen is a horrible thing :( After a while my doctor just went on symptoms
and since most women are estrogen deficient that what she kept me on and had me
stop the progesterone. Very bad time for a while till I insisted on retesting.
I was 23 years old when I had my hysterectomy, I had no choice as I was dying.
Massive tumors, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, salpingitis and PID. The PID was
given to me at the hospital when I delivered my son. The rest of the stuff was
hereditary. I had a high fever and not coherent for a few days after his birth.
It was a terrible time thanks to some negligence at the hospital. I had a rare
thyroid tumor, when I look back on my past health I wonder whether if anything
had been done differently if things would have turned out the same?
