Sam, I hope they help you on Jan. 14. Dont be too worried about them wanting
to investigate your uterus. They will let you know when to worry. They said
that they found a mass in me in Dec. that is why I had emergency surgery on
Dec. 22. The mass turned out to be a boat load of hemorrhagic ovarian cysts
covering my ovaries making them so large they were stuck together, thus
appesrring as a mass on a ct scan. They removed my right ovary and tube, and
are going in for the rest in Feb. I can not wait. I wish I could refer you
to a good doc. but I live in ohio. That would be a long trip.
