Re: Large fibroid

Hi DeeAnn,

So sorry about your diagnosis. I think I can handle nagging ache but the bleeding is not tolerable. Been off bc pills one week and waiting for bleeding to return :(

Anyway, the hospital I was going to use was Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola Florida. They may help direct you to similar hospitals in your area. You could also research the Hill_Burton Act on the net. It is about medical facilities that have received federal funding for building or additions. They are required to provide a specific amount of free or below cost health care to persons unable to pay, a.k.a. uncompensated services. The website listed in my paperwork is www.hrsa.gov/osp/dfer/. I have not researched this but did have a friend who had surgery for TMJ under this program. My doctor sent me to the Florida facility and I backed out of it all.

Good luck!
