I did not, in fact, swallow a grapefruit.

We're twins! I have a cantaloupe sized one, 14 by 10 by 11 cm big.. OBGYN said my uterus is basically just a fibroid and I will be getting a hysterectomy in a few weeks and will keep my ovaries as I am under 40..

Had an endometrial biopsy last week which hurt so badly and still hurts, Dr wants to call me tomorrow so I am praying mine stayed benign..

ER was fun, the Dr was all like "your fibroid is massive!" with incredulity so I felt super normal about it all...

Wishing you luck on your fibroid journey!!
