Petitioner's Opinions To Support For A Call For Fibroid Research & Education Act.
Signature No. Opinions
315. 
314.  WOMEN ARE NOT BEING TOLD ALL THEIR OPTIONS WHEN BEING DIAGNOSED WITH FIBROIDS. THEY ARE BEING TOLD THAT HYSTERECTOMY IS THE ANSWER !!! ITS THE ONE SIZE FITS ALL OPERATION. IN REALITY ITS JUST SWAPPING ONE PROBLEM FOR ANOTHER. WOMEN SHOULD BE TOLD ALL THE FACTS SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE AN INFORMED CHOICE ABOUT THEIR BODIES.

308.  I was told I have 4 this morning, after having pressure on my bladder for several months, and heavy periods and pain for most of my adult life. (which I actualy thought was normal till reading this site)Plus the accompanying anemia. I will find out my options in a week, its been good to read there are other options than hysterectomy, though I have children it seems a bit severe
307.  I have been told by telephone that I require a hysterectomy for a 'possible' fibroid! How arrogant can members of the medical profession be to break serious news in such a manner? My so-called consultant has not even explored all other areas for possible diagnosis or alternative treatment with me. I am getting a second opinion. I am angry and I advise other women to get angry and demand quality treatment to suit you and refuse to undertake any treatment until you are absolutely certain is is right for you. The medical profession must stop experimenting with women's bodies now!

304.  My fibroid was dismissed by various bodies for 2-3 years and through my persistence was removed last week- wth near tragic results. It had gotten so big it was a major op and then I had internal bleding and and had tobe re-operated on.
303. 
302.  We need more research as there is only western women who are able to obtain the information on the subject. If research was widend and more money put into it this may help some of the women in the rest of the world. I am sure ohters feel that there is nothing that can be done but with research they may just be able to stop the Fibroids in the first place, and stop sufferes world wide.

299.  I found the only way to access information about fibroids is from the internet itself.i would also like to know what other treatments there are for women with fibroids.
298. 
297.  Yes - more research needed.
296.  My mother is suffering from fibroids but she is so scared to speak with doctors and do something about it. I want to find an alternative method of reducing the fibroids and would like more campaigns to be done for women to have fibroids investigated at the earliest opportunity
