Elizabeth was fighting a fibroid problem, without even knowing it.
“As a professional figure skater performing up to 3 shows a day, Elizabeth was used to feeling exhausted.

“Having fibroids was extremely uncomfortable. I was on my feet all the time, retained water, had lower back problems, bloating and cramping. After a failed myomectomy, I got proactive.

Today, I feel happy, I feel confident and I'm fibroid free." - Kristian After a myomectomy and surgery complications, Kristian's fibroids returned.

“I can't thank you enough for quite literally saving my life through the Uterine Fibroid Embolization procedure. …End of horrible period.
“When the duration of my periods went from 7 days to 15 days in length, I knew something was wrong. It happened gradually so initially, I didn't see the urgency. However, one evening I attended a festival with friends and the tampon and pad I was wearing became drenched. No one had any additional feminine products and there wasn't a convenience store in the area. Embarassed, with my jacket around my waist to cover my stained jeans, I took a cab home. …Myomectomy failed. Embolization didn’t.
“Over fifteen years ago I had the traditional myomectomy surgery. My fibroids returned worse than ever resulting in extremely heavy periods, painful intercourse, and distended uterus. After much research, I decided on Dr. McLucas’ uterine embolization procedure. What a breeze! The procedure was over before I knew it; all I had was a tiny incision in the groin and some cramping (no worse than a bad period). I was up and around and eating a full Thanksgiving dinner by the second day! No more heavy periods, a normal uterus and sex is pain free. I couldn’t be happier with the results!" - Christy S.…Complicated case. Happy ending.

I was starting to feel the fibroids from the outside and my abdominal girth was increasing. My periods were very heavy and I felt a constant pressure sensation. I knew I needed to get something done, but the only option I heard over and over again was hysterectomy. Being a nurse, I didn’t have the recovery time required for a hysterectomy and at my age I wasn’t willing to have a hysterectomy. …Superfast recovery
“I was thrilled to find an option other than major surgery to solve my problems with fibroids. Better yet was the fact that my recovery was days, not weeks. I missed only one day of work and was swimming even before returning to work. As time passes, I continue to be thankful for this procedure and for Dr. McLucas' being there throughout the embolization as well as for his continuing follow ups.…Uterine Artery Embolization Patient Testimonial
