I went in for my fibroids treatment on Tuesday at the University Hospital. It's a non-invasive procedure that is being introduced in Malaysia for the first time (it's been used in Europe and US on a few hundred people, successfully).
It's called many things -- ablation, MRI-guided focused ultra-sound and at UH, it's called hi-fu (not sure if that's how it's spelled, though).
During the procedure, I had to lie belly-down on an MRI machine for almost four hours while a focused heat was targeted at my large uterine fibroid. There was also some cramping sensation inside my abdomen...almost like labour contractions!
The bad news is I have to go in for a second treatment in early March...I'm so not looking forward to it but it's the only appealing option for me right now.

If, in the light of things, you fade real, yet wanly withdrawn to our determined and appropriate distance, like the moon left on all night among the leaves, may you invisibly delight this house; O star, doubly compassionate, who came too soon for twilight, too late for dawn, may your pale flame direct the worst in us through chaos with the passion of plain day.
