Re: Endo on Uerter and Hysterectomy???

Hi Dianna, I am sure most of us can sympathize with you. I too had endo on the ureter and my first dr. could not remove it. Luckly she accepted the fact that she did not have the skill but that someone more experienced could help me. My husband and I were trying to get pregnant and so she sent me to a fertility clinic with a dr. that was well known for her surgical skills with endo. She was able to remove it no problem. So, as you read though many of the posts on hysterectomy, you will find that many women feel that too many dr's are too quick to jump to that solution..any it may not even work! My personal advise...seek another opinion or even several. If you post where you are from I am sure that maybe someone knows of a great Dr close to you. Best of luck, pls keep us posted!
