Jenny the answer is YES........

and is it possible that the doctor >didnt do something rite?

No. But it is possible for tubes to grow back together. There were 2 types of tubals in the 80;s in one the tubes were kind of burned apaart and in the other they were cut and tied. The second is more reliable but Neither are 100%.

i know it could be the change doing this to me >but i havent read where the other symptems come into play.

I have had 4 children and a tubal And the change and I Never had any of your SX while I was having the change. Hot flushes, sudden mood changes, rapid body changes (hot one minute, cold the next) and a few other things but Not what you are decribing.

one more >thing, when i had my checkup several months ago, the doctor said i was

Did he/she do an estrogen blood test?

no signs of the big m at all yet!!! as you can tell, i need >some advice here!

First of all I would suggest getting a pregnancy test kit at the drugstore and doing it. It's Fast and pretty daarn near perfect. You just dip a stick in urine, (yours of course) and follow the simple directions. If you don't want to do this please go to your medical professional and have a pregnancy blood test. This is a positive test and takes about 2-3 days for the results.

I hope all works out well for you and if you are not pregnant why not go back to your doc and run these things by him/her.

Barbara > thanks for listening,

Your welcome
