As common as they are, you'd think they'd be discussed more, but the books I've read on the topic say women who exercise often don't have a problem with them. Sucks being the exception to the accepted dogma. I'm glad you have found a treatment that seems to be working to manage and hopefully shrink them. I have a few fibroids, including a large one about the size of your large one. Mine causes extended bleeding (half the month at least) but no flooding (yet). My grandma had one of the flooding ones and back then they just cut everything out to treat it. I've followed the research on options and they do have so many more options now, but insurance has been rather reluctant to cover the newer treatments. As for the old hysterectomy option, really, who wants to have major surgery and have a part of their body removed! Not me, that's for sure! I was on a clinical trial med for a while that really helped, but some folks were having side effects and so they shut down the trial. Now I just supplement with iron and know that sometimes my fast runs and races will be affected, especially races around mid-cycle when estrogen levels rise and I can feel the stupid things actually swell a little larger. Usually they just ache and spot and impact my bladder capacity (and racing while half-dehydrated sucks). On my next doc visit I'll have to ask him about Myomin. I hope you continue to see great progress with managing yours and that your performance starts getting back to normal!kmorghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146438757040571885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-31715961991109993372014-04-28T08:10:18.051-07:002014-04-28T08:10:18.051-07:00AR, Thanks for your comment and I appreciate you s...AR, Thanks for your comment and I appreciate you sharing your fibroid story. Your situation sounds very miserable. I'm not sure if you read the post before this one, but tI linked to an article about a triathlete who had a fibroid that was pinching nerves and making it impossible to run. She had a myomectomy to get rid of hers. <br /><br />The good news, and I promise to update my blog soon, is that I seem to be getting mine under control. The BCPs have helped to regulate my cycle and my blood levels are skyrocketing. Running is so much easier with red blood cells!! I really can't know whether the things I'm doing to shrink the fibroids are helping to do that. I can still feel them, but maybe they don't seem as large? Hard to say right now. Regardless, I and thrilled with where I am right now. As you know, that can change any day, so I'm trying to enjoy the RBCs while I have them. I will continue to update about this, so check back often! All the best to you.

I'm discovering the hard way that it is hard to find legitimate information about shrinking fibroids. I'm actually rather troubled by the lack of fibroid awareness out there in general because for years it seems that the attitude has been "if you can get a hysterectomy, who cares!" Which obviously, ain't ideal for anyone. <br /><br />I'm impressed you're still running well with the HG levels. I'm fortunate in that my stupid massive fibroid is external so I've avoided anemia. However, the damn thing has contributed to pelvic alignment issues and has compressed my bladder to the point that I can't run more than a few miles at a time, which is awesome when the stupid thing is large enough to make me look a few months pregnant. And in regards to what your friend said, I'm 34. While I guess I'm not exactly young, I think it's important for women to know that these things can show up and wreak havoc on your running, either from blood loss or just having it lean against the wrong organ.

As I mentioned in the past couple of posts, the real issue is actually getting hemoglobin levels up. Low iron is a precursor symptom to low hemoglobin. I wonder whether you've seen a change in that as your body has been able to store more iron. I bet it has gone up and that's why you're feeling so much stronger. Exciting! I hope that your ITBS heals fast so you can fully test out your new blood levels!<br /><br />And, thanks for the support on the decision to go natural with the treatment. It's working well so far (fingers crossed).

I'm a year or so younger than you and I've already hit the pre-menopausal era. Yay. It has it's own challenges, luckily fibroids isn't one of them. <br /><br />I've really appreciated being able to follow your iron challenges. I have always, since puberty, had issues with low iron. My body just doesn't absorb it well, not matter what I eat or don't eat. Switching to Liquid-Ferro since reading about it here has been amazing. For the first time in at least ten years I don't feel tired all the time. I don't need to sleep 9-11 hours every night just to function (and that was when on ordinary supplements). I think I'm running faster, although I'm not sure as I'm dealing with ITB issues and soreness related to increasing distance.<br /><br />Good luck with resolving this and your alternative approach. I'd do the same thing, anything to avoid major surgery. Our bodies are designed to heal themselves from most things, if we can just support that process. Often I think we're too quick to go under the knife for a quick fix, when we should look at other options first. Yes, I frustrate my doctor regularly with this viewpoint! LOL<br /><br />Good luck and fast healing!Melindahttp://melbrennan.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-29044442784638590282014-04-11T01:07:00.667-07:002014-04-11T01:07:00.667-07:00Jaymee, that's generous of you to share your s...Jaymee, that's generous of you to share your story so that other readers may learn and benefit.

For whatever reason, my doctor is not offering UAE as an option. I think it might be because the HMO I belong to does not offer the treatment. Also, I have very minimal healthcare coverage right now, so even if they did offer it, I don't think I would be covered. Nonetheless, I have read about it and think it looks like a great option. Your story is encouraging! As I said in the post, I am working on shrinking the fibroids medicinally. If it doesn't work, or I get impatient (or too anemic), I will start looking for other options. One thing I do know is that they may not be able to surgically remove my fibroids regardless of how small they get if they are embedded in the uterine wall. Apparently, this is far too risky due to the large amount of blood loss involved during surgery as compared to a hysterectomy. The doc said she won't do it.

After clicking around I found this article about your anemia and had to comment because your story is so similar to mine. I have been suffering from anemia caused by a fibroid the size of a 24 week fetus. It was protruding from my belly. (I'm a size 0 so it was hard to hide) My periods were extremely heavy and lasted up to 14 days and pretty much took over my entire life. My running completely tanked as my ferritin dropped into single digits and remained there even after taking high doses of iron and eating red meat every day. Every doctor I talked to only recommended a hysterectomy and I did not want to have a surgery that would put my out for 8 weeks. <br /><br />Thru researching on my own - I found a non-surgical procedure called Uterine Artery Embolization and it is done while you are awake using x-ray guidance. The IR doctor makes a small cut in your vein near your groin and basically kills off all the veins that feed the fibroid. Your heavy periods stop immediately. The fibroid dies and starts to shrink. I was back running within a week. For some reason - probably my high activity level - my fibroid started to shrink at a miraculously fast rate (this is not the norm). I had the UAE 12/5/13 and by march my fibroid was only 4cm. I had a procedure called a hysteroscopy at the end of march to remove the remainder of the fibroid. My ferritin has climbed to 49 in 4 months. I also went from weighing 112 to 102 because of the huge mass of fibroid no longer being there. It has changed my life. <br /><br />I highly recommend looking into this to treat your fibroids. I'm not sure where you live, but I had an excellent doctor at Penn. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
