I am calling my doc today- there is no way I am going on like this. How
soon will they do a hysterectomy after Lupron? If he'll do it this year,
I can avoid meeting another $1000 deductable next year. . . I know,
greedy, but when I will already be missing work, I want to save all I
can and get relief at the same time.
