Have Fibroid, Hernia, Numbness, Pins And Needles. Done Hysterectomy And Laparoscopic. What Is The Solution?

Hello! Need answer from a good gynecologist specializing in fibroid removal. My right leg is going painfully numb to the point I limp now. Seen 4 doctors & 1 chiropractor. None of them respond to my leg going numb. I have huge fibroids equal to 1.5 babies (per ultrasound report), huge grapefruit size surgical hernia resulting from myomectomy done 13 years ago, now my right leg going numb (toes, heel I cannot step on due to horrific pain). Had personal MRI begging the chiropractor for MRI referral (all MDs I have seen say MRI is worthless) but the left side L5 slight bulging does not indicate much as my RIGHT leg is going numb (for the past 6 months). My needles and pins pain is worse when I lay flat & try to sleep or when I drive (sit). I was very athletic and in shape but now I am helpless. All doctors want to do surgeries which are: hysterectomy, hernia & disc surgery. I am single, never fucked or had babies, 55 and not ready to be butchered to death. I even internet-explored doctors abroad who specialize in laporascopic surgeries and am thinking about seeing them. Contrary to thinking of doctors, I think my leg going dead is due to huge fibroids. What do you think? Any good gem doctor will be rewarded who provides sound advice.

Hi, welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears that the fibroid is the main problem. So if you get fibroidectomy, now, you will be free of the main weight on the nerves supplying the lower limbs.If the fibroids are deep under the endothelium, Hysterectomy may be needed.
It may take another 6 months for accomodation of the surrounding tissues. Then if C.T. scan is taken the hernia, and disc surgeries, may be thought of.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
