I have had a d/c about a year and half a go because being postmenapausal I developed an 8 in my uterine lining...and the dr did what he needed to do and I think he shaved down the fibroid and it proved to be non-malignant ...I am sorry if I am using laymans terms but this is all I know how to describe it...so...I had an ultrasound and transvaginal in Jan and after about a year and a half maybe alittle more than half it went from a 3 after the d/c to a 6...my gyno put me on progesterone 5mg and my body had a couple of weeks into it severe diahrea heartburn gas and a tightening feeling at the bottom of my throat...I went to see my gp and he gave me something that relaxed my throat and I have been eating little meals thru-out the day...my bowels by taking pro-biotics and florase....twice a day....my gyno asked me to try it again because she said in her history and she has been doing this for decades she never heard of a patient reaction like what I had....terrible diahrea...etc I thought my insides were coming out....my gp thinks it could have been a coincidence and it might have been a bacterial bug I caught while eating in an Asian restaurant...so I have been feeling better and better and then last night at her request I started the 5 mg and my tummy felt queasy ...my bowels were not logs but kind of overlapping thin strips on top of each other and even taking that morning pill for the throat tightening my throat tightened again and has been like this all day...my doctor is not into holistic medicine...and she really does not believe one has anything to do with another...and my gp who wanted me to stay off of this progestin for awhile also did not think one has to do with the other...so I am an organic lifestyle..I exercise ..I eat as correctly as I can...and finding out that progesterine is the only thing she knows of to get my uterine wall to decrease....I am so confused and worried
