| After 20 years experiencing what I
assumed were extremely painful
stomach aches and repeatedly being
diagnosed as \'probably having IBS\'
by doctors, it is only in pregnancy
that I have discovered I have huge
fibroids. I had never even heard of
them before. If 1 in 3 women
experience them, more research
should be undertaken to find ways of
non invasive pain management and
alternative removal methods, |

| The pain and complications of
Fibroids affect thousands of
women of all ages. This
suffering and disruption to
their lives must be addressed.
Much more research needs to be
undertaken to find out what
causes Fibroids, and serious
advances made into developing
new treatments. We need
Governments in the EU to
pledge funding for Uterine
Fibroid Research and
Education. A situation that
was addressed in the USA in
June 2005 with a Act making
fibroid funding compulsory. |

| I agree that as a very common problem which is not well understood, research into fibroids ust be prioritised. I had to have a hysterectomy due to very large fibroids which caused extreme pain each month. This treatment was drastic and has led to severe chronic post-op pain and disability one year on. I am adding my name here because I wish other women to be prevented from the horrific complications of radical surgery for this common condition. |

| This needs research, i have only
been offered hysterectomy, nobody
wants to do anything else. I do not
accept this . |

| I currently suffer with fibroids that were so painful they thought I had appendicitis. I am going to consultations to find out the best route to take but it's rather scary and there is no sympathy. I am constantly told it's a condition that affects women esp Afro/Caribbean women so get used to it. It's difficult because it's something I could possibly live with as it's not a life/death situation but to be shirked off and told to go do my own research is a little disheartening. |

| How can we prevent, cure , help ourselves and NOT line the pockets of surgeons - there has to be a better way! |
