    • I’m With You

      From amyb November 1, 2007

      Hi Sarah, I, too, had an endometrial cyst the size of a grapefruit removed during a laproscopic procudure last year. A "grapefruit" on one side and an "orange" on the other! UGH. I'm currently going through IVF as a last means for 'mommy-hood.' Hang in there---I know how painful it can be. And, for whatever its worth, a friend of mine had a hysterectomy last year and she looks and feels great!.

      Best of luck, I am recovering well from a hysterectomy after it was discovered I had the very early stages of endometriosis. Hope all goes well
