Hi, I am asking on behalf of my wife (IC Network member hollyd) as she can't sit long enough to type a message. I'm her secretary 
We're wondering if anyone has had surgery of a gyn nature, unrelated to IC but while they have had IC.
If so, what effect did it have on their IC symptoms. Was there no reaction, or did it make their IC much worse, cause a flare or a general increase in symptoms. If i did cause a problem, was it temporary or ongoing, and if temporary, for how long did it last, and how severe was the reaction (and of what nature)?
They really don't know for sure whether fibroids are part or all of holly's problem and we are afraid that if it is IC only, that having major surgery (to remove fibroids) will make the IC worse, whether permanently or temporarily.
If anyone could answer a bit of the above it'd be most helpful!
Thanks!
Kev
