    HI Londonite1,

    I'm afraid I don't have the anwsers you need as haven't had my Myomectomy yet but was just wondering if I could ask you a few questions regarding the recovery?

    I've only have one 10cm Intramural fibroid which they are planning to remove within the next 6 months.

    Hope you are starting to feel better now 😃
