Is there anyone who managed reasonably well in their recovery?

I have finally reached a point after years of struggling where I can get through most days at work without severe exhaustion and crippling symptoms. To lose all of this for a fibroid the size of a grapefruit that I am told must come out leaves me in despair.

My llmd has spoken with the surgeon. I will be on IV Rocephin before, during and after the surgery. Additionally, my llmd suggested a spinal rather than neurotoxic anesthesia.
Can anyone share experiences with different forms of anesthesia?

Anyone have a positive story to share? Anyone?

Just wanted you to know I read your post. I wish I had a positive outcome to share, mine was not good, but I was ill prepared, never thought it would trigger the Lyme.

I do hope someone has a positive story to share. Surgery for me was the last straw that reactivated my Lyme big time.

Has your dr considered shrinking the fibroid with hormones? I know it's not a pleasant way to get rid of them, but neither is surgery.

Because you're currently on abx, perhaps it won't be such a problem. I hope it won't!
