Anne, nice name.....I had a full hysterectomy on July 30th 2004. Since then I have had an uncomfortable feeling when releiving my self. I finally had my OBGYN do an ultersound. September he found an adhedsion on my urethra and in November it had grown to 4.8 cent. wide and dept 1.5 inches. I have now been told that if I don't have it removed, that it could cut the blood supply to my right kidney and that I could loose it. But if I do have the surgury, my chance of loosing it is still 50/50. I have 4 children and of course no time is a good time to have surgury. What's your take on this, I'm interested in another womans opinion.

thanks so much Annie
