Toya, this is my first comment ever on RUclips and I'm doing it just for you. I had the UFE in 2017. It is safe and effective but very painful. I was in the hospital curled up in the fetal position for 2 days. The uterus gets angry and fiercely contracts because the blood supply is cut off. The pain level (scale of 1-10) was a 7, even with pain meds. The medication never gets the pain to zero, so make sure there's no gaps without it from the minute you're discharged. Each day the pain went down 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. It took about a week for me to reach zero pain. No one explained the pain in detail for me, so I'm sharing with you and others. My fibroids did not return so I'm happy I did it. You're an amazingly strong woman (like me) so if I got through it, I know you can too. Best wishes and much love to you and your beautiful family..🙏❤️
@@michellemclean5196 I’m so glad you got better and thanks for sharing because I’ve been considering UFE and I was wondering about the pain afterwards.
@sassyclassy491 Thank you, and you're very welcome. My uterus was big mad with a whole attitude. I tried to talk to her about it, but she didn't wanna hear it..😒
I had the same exact procedure that the physician described to Toya and it 100% worked for me. It’s been years and I have NOT regretted my decision. For me, it was better than having a total hysterectomy❣️
Your daughter is so sweet. ❤. I like how chill you are and just such an awesome mom. This is my first time watching your channel. I wish you much success with your procedure and much love and blessings to you and your family. ❤❤❤❤❤
A month ago, I had my UFE, I'm just starting to feel a difference in my energy levels. The community is right. The fibroids become very angry after the procedure. My Dr recommended an overnight stay, after the procedure ( 2 hrs), I stayed 2 hrs for observation and told him I was going home bc I felt great. By midnight, I was extremely nauseous and went to the emergency room and was admitted. Somethings I want to share. 1. Do your best to empty your stomach and bowels, I was extremely constipated, which added to the discomfort. The pain meds also lead to constipation, so keeping a light diet before may benefit you. 2.Your DR may be able to provide you with a nerve block for pain, unfortunately my colon was in the way, so I was not able to do so. 3. Stay hydrated. My Dr went through the groin/leg area, the entrance wound was smaller than a mosquito bite. Everyone will have a different experience, and this is not medical advice but rather my experience.
I had fibroids. They said the fibroids made me look three months pregnant down there. They also took one of my ovaries. Everything went great until the bladder infection. I got medicine and it was fine.
Thanks Toya for putting that out there for women that needs to know about thyroids and stuff like can't wait for you to have your baby boy and I'm 4 and 1/2 months pregnant with baby number 6
I'm so glad you're speaking on eating right for your blood type I've been telling people about it for years now and no one listens to me . They say I've never heard of that it seems weird.. smh thanks for mentioning it 👍 👏.
Thanks Toya for letting us into your life more. Can’t wait for the new show. I hope Nae is good, miss her posting. And Good Luck on your upcoming surgery 🙏🏾✨
Check the medical board for your state to get real information about your surgeon. There you will find all claims against their license that caused medical harm or outcomes
Reign is so smart , my mom used to tell me that I was gonna be black from all that sun 😅 keep the updates coming & I’m sending healing vibes for your procedure.
Your are a great mom, I love that N Ur doc help me as well because he was very informative. I have the same issue n every thing is cut n surgery n I was advised not to
MrsRushing calf Liver is very good for your blood immune system and promoting cell growth. Other essential vitamins found in calf liver include vitamin B12, which supports red blood cell formation and nerve function, and vitamin D, which helps maintain strong bones and teeth.

Hello Toya, I’m from New Orleans but relocated to powder springs after Katrina. Now I’m in Mesquite Tx been here for 6 years now. But I’ve gotten the UFE back in 2017 by Dr Lipman. He was actually awesome. My procedure went well and yes I did experience pain later after I got home because I had a very poor care taker (narcissistic now ex husband) to care for me and didn’t give me meds to stay on top of the pain. If you stay on top of the pain by taking pain meds you shouldn’t have that problem. My sister lived in Texas at the time and had her procedure done by a Dr there and her Dr consults with Dr lipman for advice. Dr lipman was one of the 1st Dr’s to master this technique and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Maybe the reviews are not accurate and people are hating because he’s a White Dr with black clients. Because he is the best. I hope your surgery goes well and you are happy with your results
💕hey Toya your braids are super cute !! Not Red scraping the bowl while having breakfast 🤣🤣🤣Reign is a really good swimmer 💗💗 good luck finding the right surgeon it's good sometimes to get more than 1 opinion ♥️♥️
I’m going through the same thing with fibroids 4 years ago I had some removed the size of golf balls and today I went back bc my cycle has been on heavy for three weeks (which caused me to become anemic) and now I have two more 🤦🏾♀️
I need to receive this blood test. My cousin did this years ago, and his weight loss is crazy. He can't eat certain foods, because of an allergy, which causes inflammation. I think the same thing is happening to me.
I had fibroids like probably over 30 years ago! I stopped putting a lot of products in my hair &hair straight ingredients it worked! Over time! Then you gotta watch these haters out here too cause they love casting spells. And you know what getting pregnant helped too. If I remember right! 🤔It's been so long ago! But I remember the pain. I'm sending supplications for healing 🫶
Getting pregnant does not help fibroids please educate yourself if anything the hormones from pregnancy cause them to get larger and getting pregnant while having fibroids can be a risky pregnancy
I will be paying for you i to have had fibroid, and God heal me, i gave up pork and beef and junk foods i work out, and i feel much better you are in my prayers i love you and your family Toya believe God I'm asking God to heal you i know that he and i know that he will trust God and believe him
I have fibroids I had the same surgery I had they came back I’m scheduled to go Tuesday for another surgery but it’s robotic hopefully this one works my period in July lasted 32 days my body was ready to shut down
Fav ❤️❤️❤️ I wanna try and change my diet as well and workout I think it’s healthy for me considering the fact I’m getting older reign is doing so good with her swim lessons yesss vlog your procedure tell us how it went, and yes try tennis out it might be good exercise considering the fact you can’t workout like you want to ❤❤❤❤ I’m definitely praying 🙏🏽 you have a speedy recovery
Thank you so much, because these so called doctors make it seem as if surgery is your only option. N they don't think about of your body came handle it especially how am anemic .
Hey Toya ! I’m an interventional radiology technologist ; I work with a doctor that does those invasive procedures. Sounds like a lot of info but it’s really simple and recovery time is very short ! Good luck with everything ❤
@@divinedriven1693 she should, like the doctor mentioned the procedure is to stop the blood flow to the fibroids which will make them shrink and go away.
Toya praying for a successful removal of your fibroids whenever tht time come I had some removed and had a hysterectomy just continue to keep the faith and believe and you'll be alright and another thing u look like a tennis girl (in meaning u look like you would be out there playing tennis) lol
Start manifesting your boy. My grand baby entire paternal family manifested that she would look like her grandfather. And secretly my daughter because she felt like they would question the baby if she didn’t. Now she’s mad that she even came out with a George Jefferson hairline like them and their hair texture and none of them hair seems to grow. I told her that she had to be specific with god. We thought she would at least have long curly brown hair and light eyes because it’s a dominant gene. The whole thing I’m saying is manifesting works. Side note she also had fibroids but was able to conceive with them which shrunken during pregnancy.
@@ToyaJohnsonLivethe procedure itself is not painful but you have to stay on top of your pain medication. If your prescription says every 4 hrs.. take your meds every 3 hrs and you will be fine.
@@ToyaJohnsonLive just now seeing this. The first 24 were the worst. After, it got much better each day. 75% of the pain was gone after 24-48hrs. Just slight bearable pain/discomfort thereafter. Hopefully your pain has subsided just the same.
I had fibroids. 4 of them the size of grapefruits... I had a myomectomy, and 8 years later, they grew back, so i had a partial hysterectomy... I don't know you,❤ but I'm praying for you..... be blessed 🙌
Toya…if Reign really doesn’t like gymnastics, don’t force it on her after she’s done with her classes…maybe try an instrument and put her in music classes…she may like that a lil bit better…after all, it’s in her blood bcuz she has Nawlins’ roots…just a suggestion 🤷🏽♀️ Love ya’ll 🎺🎹🎷💜💜💛💛💚💚
She love flipping and doing gymnastics moves all day. She was just intimidated by the bigger kids. I’ll try giving it another shot. I think she will eventually fall back in love with going. I don’t want her to give up that easy. It would be different if she hated everything about it.

I used to workout at least 3 to 4 days a week
Thank you for sharing so much detail about the pain and recovery and other videos.
Who was your doctor?
Prayers and well wishes on your upcoming surgery, ❤❤
Go Reign! Wishing you the best during and after surgery.

I avoid eating any red meat. I just eat salad and fish; I don't eat chicken. I discovered when I consume red meat. My knees hurt from it.
Getting pregnant does not help fibroids please educate yourself if anything the hormones from pregnancy cause them to get larger and getting pregnant while having fibroids can be a risky pregnancy
Please speak on the haters casting spells! I honestly believe that.
This procedure is the best. You go-to be able to live your life better.
I wish you well on your procedure and I pray for you to have a son.
So glad you're going to get the procedure done to relieve your pain ❤ y'all. Louisiana (Lacombe near Slidell) born.
Praying for speedy recovery 🙏
