To all on this wonderful forum,

I am just catching up with my email to find a horrible thread about post tubal stuff going on - insults flying, walls building, defenses rising, posts removing, YIKES!

Let me say first and foremost I love this forum and I am so grateful for all that put their time in, especially you busy physicians. The last thing you need is angry women spewing insults at you for something you have had nothing to do with. I believe the anger was intentionally built up before it reached this forum and everyone involved vented here - because it is easily reached, full of Drs and non-confrontational - I doubt many of these women would take such hostility to their own physicians.

Now let me say that I am someone that has been suffering gyn problems since my tubal. I believe I may have had pre existing conditions that contribute to it, but life has been truly a living hell since the tubal and tring to find reasons for it are difficult, to say the least.

As much as I understand frustration from those with unanswered questions, I cannot understand attacks to those on this forum. Even when I disagree - which is not very often - I am so grateful for the replies.

I guess what I am trying to say is that although sometimes I get frustrated when I am dealing with heavy bleeding, intense pelvic pain, recurring cysts, BCpills that do no good and just make me nuts and threats of surgery for symptoms that have no answers I totally understand why you as physicians in cyberspace cannot even attempt to answer exact complaints because you are not physically there. And to insult your intelligence because of that is really unneccessary, disrespectful and an insult to this forum.

I try to remove myself from this petty stuff and concentrate on teaching childbirth classes, providing labor support and helping out on this great forum when I can but I am human and do have a temper - it gets me going to see so many compassionaate physicians (whom I desperately WISH were in NJ) be attacked for no good reason.

If there is such a thing as post tubal syundrome, I know you all will find out about it and help those suffering from it. If not, I have confidence that good physicians like yourselves will listen to and try to understand these unexplainable symptoms that drive some women batty.

I understand the quality of life issue and some responsibility has to be put into the patients hands.

I think I have said entirely too much now!!

I hope you all have a good day and hope to see a question like "What is good to eat while pregnant" question or something!! :-)

Thank you all again for your time!

Best Wiushes, Elizabeth Mazelis,CCE
