Hi Terri -- great question! I am currently considering two options. One is a myomectomy. This is where the surgeon would have to cut open my uterus and remove the fibroid. Because of the type of fibroid I have (partially intramuscular and subserosal), my doctor said he would not even consider doing the procedure laproscopically. I am also considering MRI-guided ultrasound surgery. I am currently waiting for the requisition to get an MRI done to see if I am a candidate to do this.
