DEar Ronnie,
PLEASE TAKE NOTE if you do not want a Hysterectomy THEN DO NOT DO IT.
Whilst there is a statistical link between Endo & Cancer, it is not 100%
guarantee that it will happen to you. It is your body, you have a right
to decide for yourself when you want to have organs removed.
Even though you are in pain, if it is due to Endo then having a Hyst MAY
NOT a CURE for the pain.
please listen to ur heart & make a decision that suits YOU, NOT UR
DR.....
kind regards Sami koala
