u....your NOT alone ....my first doc was like that....made me feel like a freak cause, as he said....your only 30 and you have a 11 com fibroid- thats not normal.....he even saidm maybe its cancer or something....i was PANICKED.......got a second opinion and my dr, who is a specialist says its very common, and lots of women have them large and don't even realize it...and cancer is like .001 perecent....and now i'm 13 weeks pregnant with the same fibroid , and she says everything is fine and she's had several other women with larger fibroids have normal pregnancies......in fact she said she was glad i didn't get a myomectomy ( which the other dr booked me for without consulting me), cause now we dont have to worry about scar tissue and uterine damage!! so you are noty alone, and this is common....maybe a little less common to have them larger, but it still happens alot...are you able to see another dr??
