Guest guest Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Hi thought I might throw in one more thing about periods. I had to have everything removed over 27 years ago. They thought I was bleeding to death. Before that I would bleed for weeks even months at a time. My iron was so low I would pass out and was sick with everything my kids brought home. For a 2 or 3 year time span I was in the hospital 4 or 5 times...anyway I found out that I have a BLOOD Disease. It prevents me from clotting and it is common in women. It is called Von Willebrand's disease. have her check that out Before they decide to do any type of surgery because I ended up needing 31 units of blood after the hysterectomy. Good luck, just another 2 cents Candi Fairy Dust Creations ----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
