next step?From: Cindy (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sun, 19 Jan 2003 17:47:47 -0600 (CST)
I have ORS (dx'd by pain and estradiol, fsh levels), still have uterus (long story). I've been taking Synarel for 9 mos now (no addback) and the stabbing pain is gone. I had a normal endometrial bx before starting it (doc had very hard time getting a sample and I was hurting for 3 days after). I went to the RE 2 mos ago with complaints of sacral pain, fullness and pressure in left pelvis and buttock, and tingling down left leg into sole of foot. did an U/S, was told everything looked "fine". symptoms continued so I brought them up at my GI appt. told him about the u/s and was sent for an MRI due to hx of abscesses and fistulas from Crohn's. MRI came back with rather vague findings, saying: there was a small amount of pelvic ascites of uncertain etiology. the junctional zone was normal more inferiorly, but couldn't identify the endometrial cavity in the fundus (which was seen on MRI 1 y/ago). there is an irregular signal in that region that does not have the classical appearance of a dark fibroid on T2. tumor should be excluded. no measurements were given. what should be my next step? is this just an unclear scan that should be redone for clarity? or is this a typical finding for someone on Synarel? or should I have more invasive testing (hysteroscopy)? I've got an appt w/ gyno (not RE) but patience isn't my best virtue... as always, thanks for your time!!!
