Ada,
I'm so sorry that my email came across the way it did. Now that I
re-read it I realize how it could have sounded. I really appreciate you
sending me to the hystersisters site! I still visit it and found it to
be very informative and helpful. I did not feel like it supported or
did not support Lupron which was good for me. I needed to see both
sides and for that I am extremely grateful. I'm glad you wrote back and
I'm even more glad that you are doing well since your hysterectomy. How
old are you? I am twenty eight and am worried that a doctor wont want to
do a hysterectomy on me because of my age. Was your recovery hard? Have
your cycles changed dramatically since the operation?
I really appreciate your advice, in fact it was your tip leading me to
other sites that finally helped me make up my mind. I really appeciated
your concern, yet your openess and please dont think that I was upset
with you-not at all. This is why email and texting can be really
complicated at times! Hope to hear from you, feel free to respond to my
email address and have a very happy and healthy new year!
Sincerly,
Marci
