fibroids and exercise
Posted , 6 users are following.
Hi .I need some advice when it comes with exercise.
I'm usually fit and well until recently (4 months ago)
Have 2 small fibroids. Left groin pain which is usually constant.
After a break from the gym I started back last week.i didn't go crazy but I was fatigued for the rest of the week. (3days) could this be fibroid related?
I actually hope it is but feel like I'm just being hopeful.
I've been ok all day and then out of the blue sharp left groin pain and lower back pain.
I got over 6 weeks to wait until gyny appointment.
Also feel like I've got a spare tyre on stomach 😣

Hi Lainyjane44,
I'd say lethargy and fatigue are two of my main symptoms (aside from bleeding). Some days are better than others, although I'm pretty much permanently exhausted these days.
I think there is a lot more to these fibroids than what is currently acknowledged by the medical profession.

Hi LainyJane,
As promised, I am finally home from my appointment. I asked the doctor about exercise and was advised to take it easy. The said yoga, walking, light bike rides are ok. Anything too strenuous is out for me. They did day to double the fluids to make sure to keep hydrated. Our bodies lose a lot during menstruation so it takes more to replenish. My appointment was at 9:00 am and I didn't get home until almost 3:00 pm. It didn't go as well as I had planned. I go back next Tuesday. I hope you are feeling a little better. HUGS

YAY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🎂🍷 Sounds like my kind of celebration!
They did the pelvic and I was extremely uncomfortable, so they did an ultrasound right then. After doing the uLyra sound they sent me for blood work and an emergency MRI. I had just finished getting the MRI when the nurse called and told me they got the results of the blood work back and the doctor wants to see me Tuesday to discuss it. She also stated he is staying at the office until he gets my MRI report and will call me this evening. I'm in a full blown panic now. Of course all of the poking and prodding has me in the fetal position on my couch. Sorry.😕 It's your birthday, I soooo should not be whining while you are celebrating.

Hey! Well I'm having surgery on December 12, they are removing all of the fibroids and 12 polyps within the uterus, they are also removing at least my fallopian tubes and possibly my ovaries due to abnormal tissue growth. He had me sign consent that if needed during that for full radical hysterectomy. I'm severely anemic so we are trying to build my blood levels over the next month a half to reduce the need for blood transfusion. Any word on you??

Grrr, that gets me so angry when they jump to depression... I'll keep praying for you and lighting my healing candles. I'm anxious and excited about the 12th. Happy 18th to your son. It's amazing how quickly they grow up, my oldest son is 15 already... please keep me updated on how you're doing.

Long awaited update!
Recovering from a laparoscopy.
Totally convinced I had endometriosis as I had all the symptoms.
The fatigue had become a big problem and I had ran out of inner strength.
Results were that I had old endmetriosis but my main problem was adhesions.
Had never heard of them , but basically same symptoms. Digestive problems was a big problem.
It's were your organs are attached together by scar tissue . I had never had a surgery before. Adhesions form when your body is trying to fight something else such as Infection, trans or endometriosis.
So opting for a laparoscopy was the answer for me.
Day 7 and I'm feeling a little positive 😁

Hi
I feel ya. I feel like I have 3 spare tires. I'm 11 days post ufe and I'm just starting to get to feeling better.
I've learned a lot about fiberoids And Uterine fibroid embolism's. My stomach is huge and I had no idea up until the last 3 months that these were my problem. I just thought my weight gain in the stomach area was getting out of control
I have 3 one is 6", another is 8" and the last is 10.6" or bigger. My belly looks very pregnant and I feel full all the time. My big one sits right on my bladder. Ugh
I would definitely listen to your body and not those doctors especially male ones. I would get them taken care of but most of the doctors will tell you not to if they're not giving you problems. Depending on your age they will only grow And your symptoms will get worse.
I let a male doctor basically talk me out of anything for about two years And I regret it.
