Pelvic Pain
Posted: 05-07-05 05:00am

Last summer I was diagnosed with pelvic congestion syndrome (it's like having varicose veins in your uterus). For several months I had continuous pain in my lower right side, kind of like the side ache you get after you have been running, but laying down for awhile seemed to help alleviate the pain. I had vein embolization procedure performed in december, which did seem to help some. Now the pain is back with a vengence. I'm not so sure it is the same problem, since laying down does not help and the pain on my right side seems to be from just below my hip bone to my upper right side. I had a colonoscopy last wednesday, which came back with some polyps but nothing that should be causing this pain. My ob/gyn says I need to have a partial hysterecomy and that will solve the problem. I do trust my doctor, but before I go through that, I want to make sure I have eliminated anything else it could be. It is really disrupting my life! Anyone else going through anything like this?
