liz: I notice that you mentioned that your hysterectomy ended your = pain. I've been told by drs that I need one. Also have sometimes severe rectal pain and lower back pain (possibly from drain scarring in = cul de sac during surgery). Many people advise me not to have hyster due = to more adhesions. You say it ended your pain. Did you already have = adhesions there? Did the hyster cause adhesions? How long ago was it? = I'm interested because I'm trying to make a decision. Was also considering just having the fibroids removed and keeping uterus but was = told fibroids will come back. Also told that uterus should come out when I get lysis so adhesions dont re adhere to uterus. In a total state of confusion and trying to make things right so i can possibly have a better quality of life. Any input anyone has re this would be so = appreciated. Thanks.
