April 2nd, 2009 This is a humorous story about the cast members (tubal reversal staff) who participated in the tubal reversal of Mrs. Peach.
For readers joining this blog series a little background is necessary. In early 2009, Georgia Peach scheduled a tubal reversal surgery with Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. She also expressed an interest in blogging from her perspective about her reversal surgery experience. She wanted more ‘details’ about what women where going through. We were delighted to have her write about her experience.
I thought I would give readers some ‘details’ on all the cast members who participated in Georgia Peach’s story. This is a purely humorous blog to demonstrate how much fun we have at our reversal center. If readers want a serious medical publication then they should ready ANY OTHER blog article on our website.

March 17th, 2009 Tubal Ligation Reversal: Why Am I Blogging?
This is probably the most important blog I have typed to date. Previously, I read patient satisfaction messages about how they had were treated during their tubal reversal surgery. I had always gotten a brief synopsis of tubal sterilization reversal, but I hadn’t been given any in-depth, details of anyone’s surgery day. This is actually what got me started blogging for Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center.

Is tubal reversal or IVF the better treatment for women who have had their tubes tied (tubal ligation procedure) and now want to become pregnant again?

March 2nd, 2009 In my previous two entries I covered how and why we came to decide on tubal reversal surgery. Now I want to talk about my anxiety over tubal ligation reversal.
Tubal Ligation Reversal : My Anxiety
When you are making a life changing choice about anything, there is a certain amount of concern to go along with it. I am an extremely sensitive person by nature- I cry at TV commercials! So to say the whole surgery situation, from deciding to have reversal surgery to getting to Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center was an emotional time for me was putting it mildly. I of course ran the gauntlet of what if’s… what if it doesn’t work, what if I’m making a mistake, and what if I can’t deal with having reversal surgery?
