No Date: symptoms please help

I woke up not feeling well today. It may just be the flu, but I was wondering if anyone else experienced these symptoms due to their fibroids. I have one small fibroid 3cm at the front of my uterus. I feel nausea, diarrhea, feel like throwing up, and every little thing I try to do I get very exhausted and sweat up a storm. I cant hardly do any thing right now.

hi there katiedash
i have the same symptoms , and have had for the past year- feeling sick all the time, exhausted, am in bed every night by 9pm, back ache. i have 3 fibroids, 2cm in size on uterus, i am due to see specialist next month. last night was very tearful and just what to have my life back.

big hugs, remain positive and get some much needed rest

Thank you for letting me know I am not alone or crazy. I have had more fibroids, and cysts on my ovaries. Doctor did a surgery removed one ovary, and cleaned out my uterus of other cysts but could not get this last one. I begged him before my surgery to take my uterus but he refused. He said he will listen to me next time and take my uterus. I have an appt. on the 20th. I do remember before my surgery I did feel sick a lot, I just wasnt sure if just one little fibroid could cause me same symptoms. I am keeping a journal to let the doctor know I need my uterus out. I am trying to cook supper but it so hard at times.

Hi- I was glad to read your post. I thought I was loosing it over here! Last night I had bad cramps and flu-like symptoms. Today I went to church, did some laundry and shopping and had to take a nap! Two hour nap!!! I called my mom and she said, "You are in pain, your body gets tired. Just think, soon you will have the surgery and it is all up hill from here." I am just giving into it all and relieved surgery is on Friday. I have fibroids and one is in the uterine cavity. Oh, and for dinner tonight, I made a frozen meal, which I never do!!!! TIRED! soon all will be better for us all.

i am having hysterectomy in April, and i am excited about it- nervous too. i need my life back and i believe you are in the same boat. let me know how you go....

good luck with surgery this friday... i will be thinking of you

Hi, yes...I need my life back too! It has been getting worse every month. Finally found a doctor to help me. I am going in for surgery on Fri. the 17th! Can not wait!!!!! Thanks for emailing.

Am so glad you found a doctor that will help you. Hopefully he wont do a half hacked job like he did on me. He took all my cysts, along with my right ovary, most my fibroids but begged for my apology because left a fibroid in. Now I am begging him to finish the job and just take my uterus out. He already said he would take my uterus out next time, well I am begging him right now is the next time. I pray we all get the healing and answers that we need to feel better.

Well, I hope mine is not a hack. He teaches DaVinci at Yale and went to Yale. He will be taking my uterus and cervix and is planning on leaving both ovaries. There, hopefully, will not be a next time. You never know though. When they get in there they have split decisions to make. Sorry you have had such a time of it. Where do you live?

My doctor is about ready to retire, and the research I have done on him most people like him. He seems to get all the tough cases, and he comes off as caring and understanding. I living Oregon, part of my problem is that I am on disability so that means government insurance that does not pay the doctors enough, and the government decides what procedures the doctors can do, and not do. So in a way I understand, he has to make sure that the insurance will pay for the procedure in the first place. That is why I am keeping a journal on my symptoms so he can make a strong case for taking my uterus.
