The pain after this procedure is EXCRUCIATING!!!
It is. I am on day 6. Why are they lying like this? Maybe different for different people.
Must be! I’m getting this done in 2 weeks and freaking out at the wide variety of responses. UGHHHHHHH.
You are so right. Had this procedure done just over a week ago. I have never experienced so much pain in my life.
@@lisafisher6068 Is it cramping or... pain at the incision?? Explain please!
@@laurelihattaway1961 cramping I had it done yesterday & my rn described it as cramps on steroids she didn’t tell one lie
Almost a week out and I feel GREAT! Been back on the truck 2 days now. I’m a Lady Trucker. DONT take the Oxycodone/Percocet. THAT makes you constipated and cause all the pain. As soon as I stopped it and did a fleets enema I felt better. Menstrual came as expected a few days after UFE. Very light!!!! ❤️
Hi. How old are you? Is there any side effects?
@@b.8087 I’m 53.
I'm so afraid of the pain during recovery.
cool. I had this procedure in northern BC, Canada a few months ago and also recommend it.
@karen C did it hurt soo bad after?
@@roukayyamga4857 I was put on intravenous mediation and the pain relief drugs were injected on a timer for a day. After that ii went home and was prescribed a combination of painkillers and relaxants for a week. I stopped taking them after 3 days. The pain after was not so bad at all, but I could have been with different doctors and meds.
Was your fibroids large? Does UFE AFFECT fertility in future?
@jeweljohn2001 I had two 7 cm diameter fibroids and a smaller one. I don't know the answer about fertility after.
I became sepsis after this procedure and had to get an emergency hysterectomy and a week after had to get get a bowel surgery a week after. I developed scar tissue. I spent three weeks in the hospital it was a scary time in my life.
How are you doing now??
@@lovebug1180 it’s been a year and I’m better and I’m pain free from the fibroids and I don’t have any problems from two surgeries. Thank you for asking
Oh my goodness; i'm glad to hear that you are much better now. I will be getting this procedure next week and although I'm preparing myself to deal with pain I am actually looking forward to doing something about these fibroids, FINALLY!
@@Twister_numba24 I pray all went well with your procedure 🙏🏾
@@aloraelliston3141 Good evening everyone I just got home from having my UFE procedure! I had the procedure yesterday (Thursday); Surgery was relatively quick the surgeon said it was like 36 minutes where my fibroids were located; but afterwards,that was THE worst pain I've ever experienced in my life😩 and to top it off I have an adverse reaction to narcotics so I kept throwing up all day yesterday and this morning!
I feel a little bit better now took some more pain meds they put me on Tylenol and Naproxen because I think that's all my system can tolerate! i'm not in as much pain today but just a little sore so I'm hoping by Monday I'll start feeling like my old self again🙏🏾
Is it possible planing for children's
Pls tell me... 🙏🙏🙏
It' s been 2 and a half years since my operation. Tomorrow-another operation(cataracta). I was just fine before my operation, now I' ve got cataracta. My fibroids doubled in one year. They found another source of supply,so , all that pain and suffering and money-useless. I was told to have hysterectomy. I refused. I changed my Mirena and keep hoping I won't get to hystero(I will turn 40 this year). Maybe something new comes. As Mirena or Esmya came. Ladies, don't do it if you have uterine fybromatosis. Do it only if you have fybros, that once dead, others won't grow anymore. Otherwise it's useless, cause, your body tends to produce new fybros, although the old ones die(mine didn't )
With UFE, did you see a obgyn first and then they refer you to radiologist? Why did you prefer UFE over myomectomy? Thank you
Liar liar..the pain is excruciatinggggg, I asked for morphine in order to not faint. Home, very painfull cramps and fatigue due to the infectious process in the body( fibroids die and that dead meat doesn' t come out, it rottens and the body perceives it as an intruder, so, it gives fever and fatigue in response.
Wow😲
That’s exactly what happened I almost died from having this procedure I’ve never felt any pain like what I felt after this procedure
Well ladies I'm one month and after my
UFE procedure and I can honestly say that although the first three days were excruciating(also I threw up a lot from the pain medication); I am very happy to report a month later that I feel fantastic and I can't wait to see within the next six months what it's going to be like.
I will just tell anybody who is considering this procedure the first couple days are going to be awful but once you get past that you will be very happy for the most part that you did this!
Everyone's body is different. Some people suffer HARD. Others not. It's different for everyone. I've heard true stories of NO pain after UFE. And I've heard many more true stories of agony. A good doctor will tell you to plan for misery for at least 48 hours and take all the pain meds if you need them. Some women will continue to need pain meds/Advil/etc. for up to 4 weeks after. But UFE is highly safe and effective for most women. If you have a rotten smell/problem, definitely see a ob gyn doctor to see if you need a D and C to remove the fibroids that are disintegrating (only 2.5% of women have this, but it does happen). Wishing you health and healing...
