Hi Anne
I'm catching up on email, as you can see - only two plus weeks later!!!
What you're describing may also be from fibroids - my sister had lots of
fibroids and would bleed for several weeks at a time. I'd suggest your
doc look into this, and do a lap on you. It sounds like you've been
going through a really horrible time; I'm sorry to hear that and my
heartfelt sympathies about losing your mother so young; that must have
been terrible. We're here for you, for any questions you might have -
even though it might take weeks to get comments back!!! :)
Good luck with the lupron, Anne!!
luv, Amy
