How big is too big for the davinci robotic hysterectomy?
Thanks to some sisters here, I did some research on the davinci procedure and am now scheduled to meet with one of the very few surgeons that does it in this state. However, since it will be my first time meeting him, he doesn't yet know my history: endometriosis and adhesions of 20 years standing, possible adenomyosis, a large uterus (1300 cc), and at least 3 fibroids, one of which is about 10cm. I don't want to waste his time or my own, plus he's a few hours away. Does anyone know if anything in what I just described in my medical situation might automatically disqualify me from the surgery?
