Hi Bernadette,
Glad to hear things are going better than expected! Thanks for your response, it is always nice to hear what other people decided, even if our conditions aren't the same. I have had my problem for so many years, I'm not even sure, but it has to be 13yr. or more. My main symptoms are bloating and pain, which has taken sometime to pinpoint a cause, partly because I put off going to the Dr. and just lived with it, but I am really sick of putting up with it. It seems like it takes so long to figure things out, several trips to the Dr. and such slow progress. I go back for another ultra sound on the 17th, hopefully the cyst is gone and the uterus isn't any bigger. I am taking the Prometrium, but I'm not sure I want to continue (I hate to take anything, even more so after you read the possible side effects of most things) and so for I haven't noticed that my condition is any better, but it has only been 4 days. Take care and I pray your recovery continues to go wellfor you, Jayne
