Scheduled to have it 9/25..didn't decide on ovaries yet..feeling better now..I think it was upper impact ion..I am a nurse..feel a little better now..still don't feel great

Because I have great difficulty urinating (I have 2 streams)..due to fibroid sitting on bladder and colon..plus a lot of adhesions from 2 sections..1987.. And 2003..I know I have some obstruction from that..always feel like I'm gonna go then I don't..abd gets taut distended for days..and it keeps building..just wanted to make it wasn't about to perforate or something..etc

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX

No it will not perforate for sure. But yes the pain can increase due to impaction.

I will advise you to get it operated soon and that will cure all your problems.
