Back Pain, Enlarged Uterus Posted: 11-09-07 10:01am
I am 43 yrs old and have been having
severe low back pain and left leg pain. I
have done over 10 months of physical
therapy and seen a Physiatrist, orthopedic
surgeon and a chiropractor. I have a mild
annular tear, which they all say should
not cause so much pain. My Gynechologist
says my uterus is enlarged to about twice
the normal size and that is the cause of
my constant back pain. The endometrium is
16.25mm thick. He wants to do a
hysterectomy. What are your thoughts on
this? What are the chances that i go thru
the hysterectomy and my back pain does not
go away? Any advise is appreciated.
Thanks,
Shar
