FITZ-HUGH-CURTIS SYNDROMEFrom: KATHY (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 18 Jan 2000 17:54:39 -0600 (CST)
I AM SEARCHING FOR AN EXACT DEFINITION AND CAUSES OF THIS SYNDROME. IM NEW TO THE WEB AND AM HAVING DIFFICULTY FINDING ANY INFO. ALL I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIND IS A PICTURE OF ADHESIONS CAUSED BY THIS SYNDROME. I HAVE EVEN CHECKED TABERS AND OTHER MEDICAL DICTIONARIES. I HAD AN UNDIAGNOSED TUBAL PREGNANCY DECEMBER OF 98 THAT EVENTUALLY RUPTURED CAUSING LOSS OF MY TUBE AND OVARY. AFTER REQUESTING MY MEDICAL RECORDS OF THE SURGERY, A YEAR LATER, I DISCOVERED THAT I HAD BEEN DX AT THAT TIME WITH THIS SYNDROME AND CHRONIC PID. I HAD NEVER BEEN TOLD THIS IN THE PAST AND WAS TOLD AFTER THE SURGERY OF THIS. I AM VERY CONCERNED AND CONFUSED. I RECENTLY HAD MULTIPLE LABS RUN DUE TO C/O EXRTEME FATIGUE, WEIGHT GAIN, AND AN ISOLATED INCIDENCE OF 3+ PITTING EDEMA TO BILATERAL LOWER EXTREMITIES. MY SGOT CAME BACK SLIGHTLY ELEVATED. COULD THIS BE CAUSED BY THIS SYNDROME? I AM HAVING A HEPTITIS PANEL DRAWN TOMARROW. ALSO, I AM HAVING SURGERY 2/4 TO REMOVE MY REMIANING OVARY THAT HAS ADHERED TO MY BLADDER AND IS CAUSING FREQUENT CYSTS. THE CAUSE OF THIS IS THOUGHT TO BE DUE TO SCAR TISSUE FROM THE RUPTURE AND SUBSEQUENT SURGERY. COULD IT ACTUALLY BE A RESULT OF THIS SYNDROME AND IF SO HOW CAN THIS SYNDROME BE TREATED SO AS NOT TO CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE? ANY INFO YOU MAY HAVE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
