'SUBMUCUOUS LEIOMYOMA'
Good day Stellastical!!!!,
Maami I need doctors-in-house to advice me or anyone who might have gone through this before, On Monday 12/12/16 I started bleeding, I call it bleeding because my period is not supposed to come until one week from that Monday and then that Monday alone I used about 6 pads, from Tuesday I had to start doubling up the pads as I can't go for two hours with one pad without being stained, from that Monday till today I have used about 16 pads and the flow had black clots as well as being heavy.
On Wednesday I went to the hospital and I was requested to do a pelvic scan whose result said I had 'SUBMUCUOUS LEIOMYOMA' and the doctor said it is a Fibroid and going by the report given with the diagnosis I was told the fibroid is in the uterus and I have to undergo surgery asap (Myomectomy).
Now my question is.. Has anyone on the blog had this before? What process do u take instead of surgery? Can anyone recommend any good hospital in Lagos environs for me who are very good with it?? Hope it doesn't affect conception?? Does anyone have an idea of what it could cost?
Am so scared Stella... Please help me out.
I think you should pray and go for the surgery.
ReplyDeleteThese are qqs u should ask ur doctor. About conception before u sign that consent form. Now, don't be a typical African who hates to read, sorry to say. U should have read all about submucous. Fibroid by now, If u have, u won't even mention not doing that surgery. Submucous fibroid will cause u heavy bleeding till thy kigdom come. It MAY prevent u from conceiving. How do u even feel conceiving with that thing struggling for space with ur baby?, read read woman! And emancipate urself. Private hospitals tend to exploit people, so my dear, u can present to govt hosps, LuTH or lasuth ain't that bad, if u pay and buy ur drugs ass at when due, Military hospital yaba, bonny camp dey there, airforce Ikj dey though I no too sure about that one. Read my dear, look at pictures of submucous fibroid.use ur brain and data. Thank you.

Delete@see no evil, you are sooo on point.
DeleteAnd that was how one came last week with similar complaints. Pelvic scan revealed a sub mucous, fibroid, a large one at that(about 24 weeks size) (and it's already symptomatic), myomectomy was advised and she refused. She went to a prayer centre or so only to be rushed in this morning. BID.
So poster, read about the problem, and then go to a govern hospital for the surgery. You will be fine, okay?? E. Hugs
May God heal u.
DeleteIt is well with you
ReplyDelete@Galore
BTW, u didn't add ur age. Fibroid in govt hosp shouldn't cosst u more than 200k
DeleteNot true Ubth cost 70k at most 100k for a myometomi and it's no big deal in 3 days u are up and doing.. u will also conceive too it even help
DeleteThere are good hospitals in Lagos.
ReplyDeleteThe cost is different. My friend did hers in Yaba but the cost is much ooo. N750,000.00.
My hair dresser did hers in Ajegunle last year, the cost was around N350,000.00. I might ask her where the place is.
If you must do your operation, try and get a husband first oo so that once the operation, na pikin be the next bus stop.
Dont worry you will be fine and you will be great. Sorry ooo. This is what most women are passing through. May God help everyone out there.
I was 5weeks gone , went for scan but my sac was empty, had home strip text 3x it showed positive, Drs said I shd wait a month for another scan, 2days ago I bought pineapple and eat, na so wahala start, cramps, contractions , pains!!!! I ran to hospital all dey cld give me was paracetamol injection 600ml... Had me do urine blood and swab text.. Yday I went for my check up na so blood begin drop o! Dr inserted his hands and said my Cerviw is closed meanwhile I was bleeding with clot! He said go home and lay down, just rest,is either of too things, it may b a false pregnancy or a miscarriage! Na so I cry reach house .. All tru d night same pain cramping and worst contraction's... The bleeding is not so much I only used 1 lady sept yday but d clots r more! Long thick and slimy... I don't want to lose hope but am on a crossed road . Did I even conceive in d 1st place? Y did d strip say positive 3x, each time I tested? Had really signs of pregnancy fatigue and all... Can ordinary pineapple cause a miscarriage??? I have been home just passing out period with lots of clot and in pain... God help me
DeleteHeard pineapple can cause miscarriage, so be careful next time. I for one think Ur doc is quack, pls seek a 2nd opinion.
DeleteSeem the pains means contractions,ur doc is supposed to give u an injection to stop the pains and then bed rest.
Thank u
Yes, pineapple contains a substance that causes uterine contractions and yes miscarriage. Google it, pray my dear and if this is a miscarriage, just let it be, grieve a little and hold on to God, the one that will stay would come.
DeletePoster that scan says empty sac please to to a proper diagnostic centre to do a good scan. Same thing happened to me and I ended up having an ectopic pregnancy and one of my tube removed. Please and please not to scare you but asap
DeleteWish you God's healing.
ReplyDeleteThe balm of gilead is on u,receive your healing in jesus name(Amen)

ReplyDelete... Jesus is my worth!
Go and get evecare tablets, it's a container with abt 30tablets....u will have to buy two containers of it which goes about 2000k each or so. Vitamin k can be administerd to you.
DeleteSorry u hear.
Try taking garlic,ginger and lipton for a week. Morning and night first. Don't rush to do surgery o.
ReplyDeleteSweetheart you will be fine. Fibroids can be very annoying. Am telling you from experience. But I beg you in the name of God, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY on so-called fibroids Shrinker's. It shrinks nothing. For most part of my marriage I was drinking herbs, rather than reducing, it was growing faster. I became weak and anaemic. One day Stella posted a plea for help for a lady who did surgery. Her name is Wumni (you can search for her on sdk past post). I called her and she gave me the contact of the gynaecologist. The doctor is the best he put my mind at rest. So i summoned courage and did the surgery. 18 fibroids were removed and am as free as air. The surgery was bloodless. Fibroids reduces the chance of conception. I just started the TTC journey this month, Because I wanted to heal well. Am six months post surgery.
ReplyDeleteYou will be fine dear.
GOD of wonders will not forget you.
DeleteWhy can't you give her the contact since you've used it yourself,why do you have to refer her to an old post?why ask her to contact Wunmi?give her the details yourself since you've had help from them yourself.
DeleteToki hospital surulere.........It would cost you money and pls go for the surgery quick without further delay.pls follow love me jeje' advise knack for belle sharp sharp
ReplyDeletehmmn, poster i have been in your shoes before. I was dripping blood and sanitary pad could not save me. I went to my gynaecologist who diagnosed extreme stress and hormone imbalance and i was given Tranexamic Acid. Immediately the bleeding reduced and cleared within 5 days. so you can try it, pele.
ReplyDeleteHow were u in her shoes olodo? Hormone imbalance and leiomyoma Sound the same to you? Smh. Nigerians
DeleteStella post my comment oo, how were u in her shoes? Hormonal imbalance and fibroids sound the same to u? Meanwhile Google tranexamic acid and see what it is.ur major ish is stress, and bed rest takes care of that. How will tranexamic acid treat fibroid?m ansswer. My qqs why u have read about it. Thank u.
DeleteReceive ur healing
ReplyDeleteSpeechless.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmm
ReplyDeletepls dont waste your time on herbs or whatever,go to any good govt hospital,bcos private hosp charge much money.my sis did hers at military hosp ph.God will see you thru.
ReplyDeleteDon't be scared... Its well
ReplyDeleteTry Island maternity in Lagos. The Lord is your strength.
ReplyDeletei recently had surgery to remove the "droids. it was submicosal and intra mural. the scan show 3, but the doc removed 10. i had heavy bleeding, and started using diapers thats when i knew water don pass garri. i spent 260kfor the actual surgery, almost 50k for blood banking, tests etc. the major issue here is who is the DOCTOR going to perform the surgery and not the hospital.. it might be a govt hospital, but an inexperienced doctor. and most importantly start building your blood count. a lot of women die from blood loss and also does ur blood clot? i joined alot of uterine fibroid forums to gain more insights. goodluck and f**** those fibroids. much !Love. PS am not in lagos can give any suggestions.
ReplyDeleteMenstruation comes every month but won't flow, it stays for two days and sometimes a day, I've done hormonal balance test which says every is normal,did transvaginal scan every is normal, doctors says I should eat a lot of fruits and use blood tonic, but this isn't working, pls what drugs can I use to make it flow.
ReplyDeleteTwo days menstruation is normal.the range is 2-5/6 days.so relax u ar ok.
DeleteYou need surgery to remove them as they have become increasingly symptomatic...waste no time any further
ReplyDeletePlease go and buy ganoderma capsule 2tabs morning and night ! U can thank me later
ReplyDeletePls I dnt know wat is wrong wit me, I have dne pelvic scan and d doctor said I'm ok, every month in me is like I'm pregant but wen it get to d date my period will come out.
ReplyDeleteGod is ur strength.
ReplyDeletePoster, it is well to begin with. Fibroid is not a death sentence so pls and pls don't be afraid.
ReplyDeleteIf the size of the fibroid is large,surgery is your option and I think yours from your explanation is in your uterus so if you are pregnant,may be battling for space with your baby so please and please,go for the operation.
There are doctors who are very experienced in this and not so expensive too in lagos.
Please read as someone suggested earlier and be well informed and be able to ask your doctor vital questions. I am concerned about SCAR Tissue which may arise after the surgery but it is not so in all cases. Please act fast and may God heal you speedily.
Poster,check if u have PID,when I had it,it made me believe I was pregnant bcus I had all the pregnancy symptoms.
ReplyDeleteTry natural cure first.I know who sell it and it works perfectly
ReplyDeleteIf its a submucous fibdroid please dont do open surgery for it. I will recommend Nordica Fertility Centre lagos. They do Endoscopy surgeries which is safe. Surgical hysteroscopy is what you need. My sister did her own with them. Open surgery can leave a scar in your uterus that may prevent you from getting pregnant. You can Google for the address. Thanks
ReplyDeleteMy dear u ll be fine since d diagnosis has bn made..surgery wch Eva type is a necessity in ur case since its very symptomatic obviously due to d location. Using drugs alone ll relief symptoms but not d cure. D pathology itself can gv u series of spontaneous n might cost ur uterus wen d fibroid grows too big, d surgery if well done wt God on ur side ll help u hv ur babies. Ll recommend a teaching Hosp close 2 u
