I recently had UAE performed at Froedtert Hospital of Wisconsin. They did a perfect job with the procedure.Pain was totally managed. My uterus was at 20 weeks. The Uae was done Feb 5,2009. Dr. Robert Hieb interventional radiologist did the UAE. Great guy. I also had a laproscopric myomectomy 4 years ago. That did not last long enough to get me to menopause so I chose to do UAE now. I never had a concern about bleeding with my fibriods just bulk. I am wondering if anyone can tell me when they have seen and felt bulk relief?

Hi I recently had the UFE done this year in March, unfortunenate like you my pain lasted a month, after the two weeks medication I got from the radiologist, my gyneacologist had to give me an injection for the pain plus tablets. Nevertheless I was happy with my decision for choosing UFE. My fibroid was making me look like if I was four(4) months pregnant. My only problem now is that how long did you take to past out dead fibroids and is your fibroid area hard or soft. Most of all this is my biggest question did your stomach got back flat.

I had the UFE done last August, after about six years of terrible symptoms that were really affecting my life. My ob/gyn also pushed for a hysterectomy, but I couldn't see having major surgery (and losing an organ) for something that was not life-threatening. I was back to work in a week, no problem. Probably could have gone back a day or two sooner, but just decided to play it safe. The only painkiller I took after I got home was Motrin (they gave me percoset, a narcotic, but I didn't need it). I was back at the gym in 10 days. As for the swelling where they insert the catheter, I didn't have any. I was a little nervous about the punctures, and they warn you to watch them for a few days in case they bleed, but mine didn't. They did advise me to take a stool softener for the first few days, so you don't have to strain during a bowel movement, which I suppose could aggravate the punctures. But I had absolutely no problem. Please e-mail me if you would like more information, I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about my procedure. My results have been very positive, btw. I recently had my iron levels checked, and they are back to normal without taking any iron supplements or even vitamins w/iron. With the fibroids, I had been severely anemic for several years. Good luck!

Thank you so much for your input. I feel better about the procedure now. I have heard that some people have terrible cramps and I have a low tolerance for pain, so I am a bit anxious. I am anxious to get back to work after the procedure. Do you recommend going back to work in a day or two? Is there much pain or swelling at the site on your leg where the catheter was inserted?

I just underwent the UFE procedure one week ago. My gyneacologist is not so keen of me choosing this procedure instead of hysterectomy. But I am really glad I chose UFE. I feel so good now and back to work in one week. The UFE procedure is just like a piece of cake! You don't have to be afraid or anything because it is not painful at all.
