I went to see another gynecologist thru my HMO insurance. The office was filthy, dirty door, walls, the rest where you put your feet was dirty! Urine samples open in little dixie cups piled up in the bathroom on the toilet right behind your back...... Anyway, he recommended myomectomy and wants me to sign form that I agree with hysterectomy if necessary.... I am going to see another doctor tomorrow. I am also considering uterine artery embolization thru UCLA. Does anybody have any input? PLEASE!

Thank you very much,
