i too have right sided pain and my doctor found varicose veins on right
side of uterus
th doctor said she is not sure if this is the cause of the right sided
pain i have been having for three years now.
what type of pain is associated with this disorder for you?
i have a very strong dull pain that runs down the front of my right leg.
so does my twin sister.
i also have premature menopause, and am being evaluated for post
menopausal bleeding. i have bilateral oopherectomy. (no ovaries)
i am very new to e mail/internet, please excuse if message does not come
through clearly.
thanks for any answers i receive!
