4lovelygirls Member # 3894	Most of the OB/GYN doctors will tell you that your TL did not cause these symptoms that you are having. That is what they told me and others that I know. For some reason they don't want to accept that there could be a link here. One thing my OB/GYN told me was that a lot of women blame things on their TL because they had been on birth control pills for years before which kept their periods lighter, less cramps and helped mood swings. This may be true, however I was not on BC for six years before my tubal and I know that surgery specifically caused some of my symptoms. I can't wait to have TR done just to prove them wrong. Also, I don't understand why insurance will not pay for TR especially on women who are going through heck with their periods, anemia, etc. since they had TL. It seems to be it would be in their benefit to pay for TR instead of more procedures or management down the road...Anyway, good luck to you. Angela
sdawn Member # 4281	I really appreciate all of the reply's that I received. I even tried to call my OB/GYN and she told me that all the symptoms that I was having was NOT related to the TL. Then what is it related to? I do NOT want to be on anti-depressants, I just want to feel like I use to. I go to church and have a relationship with God. So, I truly believe that all of this moodiness is related to the TL. I have an appointment with a fertility specialist on Wed to have a test done to see where my tubes are and what was done with them. Then we will go from there. Again, thanks for the replies! Wish luck to all of you! God Bless, Susan
Miketab Member # 1534	I have not posted on this board in a long time. But I had to respond to your concerns. I had my TL after my fourth child was born and experienced awful side effects that I feel were directly caused by the TL. After my TR in November of 2002 my symptoms disappeared. I mean within the month I was "cured". Do not give up hope because it may just be the answer you're looking for. I wish you luck. Tabitha
4lovelygirls Member # 3894	posted October 13, 2003 09:47 AM     I had my TL after my 4th C-section and experienced some of the same symptoms. Anemia, heavy and long periods, mood swings, etc. To be quite honest (I have not had TR yet) I have seen about 50/50 on the board where some women it helped them tremendously with the symptoms and some it gave them symptoms. So, I guess it is in God's hands. I think that anything different than what I go through now monthly would be an improvement....Also, I know many many women who ended up with a hysterectomy not long after TL. I am in that category and my OB/GYN wants to do one yesterday. However, I am not going to agree and am hoping for the TR real soon. Then we will see what happens and what God has in store for me next... Good luck, Angela
marybeth Member # 2590	Hi! I had my TL in May of 1998 too! I just had my TR on July 28,2003. For the 5 years my tubes were apart I did have sharp cramps, was very tired all the time, mood swings like crazy etc... I NEVER had any of this before my TL! Now that I have had my TR it is all gone! I am back to what I was! I feel sooooo much better and I am very happy to have the chance again to make a baby! I am not stressing about getting pregnant (that will get you no where fast)! We are giving it our best each month and when we are blessed is when we are blessed! I would love nothing more then to see ++++++ this month but, if not, there are many more months to come! All the best to you! Take care, MaryBeth TR-7/28/03
