Hey, this was my original post to you. (BELOW) I think you read the one that D replied to me. I just wanted to know if a lap surgey is even worth the risks and if you get enough pain relief to go through all that. I may just get the lap done, not bother with my uterus and take the chance the pain would be less. I do not have kids, by the way, but if I had to get my uterus out I don't think it would bother me. I just want to be pain free and am so exhausted with all this after all these years. I would rather get my uterus out than take the Lupron crap. I hope more people on here read that link to that petition.....that's freakin scary. Please read the post below too......thanks :)
