Tubal Reversal Helped Me Get My Health Back
I had a bilateral tubal ligation performed in 2004, at the age of 21. After the tubal ligation I had extreme swelling in my feet and legs constantly, became very emotional was unable to talk about anything upsetting because I always cried and could not hide it. I had such a hard time remembering and learning anything new.
I had thought about a tubal reversal for years but kept putting it off. Finally in 2019 I had the reversal surgery performed to see if the symptoms would go away. Guess what on my car ride back home from surgery my legs never swelled. It has been one year and I cannot tell you how great I feel. All of my tubal ligation symptoms were gone immediately following surgery.
Also, it has been one year from the surgery date and we are now expecting a bundle of joy December 2020. We did not trying to conceive until July 2019 and first positive pregnancy test April 2020. I am forever thankful to get my health back, I am now able to watch movies or have real conversations without getting upset. No more leg swelling and gaining 8 pounds of fluid for no reason.
After my tubal ligation was performed I talked to my doctor about my symptoms and their solution was birth control for heavy periods, mood swings etc. I promise this is the best money you will ever spend whether you are trying to get pregnant or just get your health back.
