I apologize if I gave that impression. I didn't think you were saying
it meanly. My aunt also had uterine ca. thus my concern. And my dad,
unknown primary ca. as well as his sister. That's why I'm going for
2nd opinion, my current doc (who I've been with a long time) seems to be
taking it with a grain of salt because it's been an issue for so long.
Some of the docs say fibroids don't cause pc bleeding, others say it
does, that's why I'm always interested in getting a new docs opinion.
But I guess they can. Did you ever have a biopsy in the office not by
D&C and does it hurt? Is that what you meant by stinging?
Good luck to you and thanks. Hope all is cleared up now.
