So nothing to worry about? I don't understand about the abdomen
also why would my gynecologist not feel the fibroid on my internal exam?

Brief Answer:
Don't worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear again!

While you do not complain of any issue like abundant vaginal bleeding during menstruation or intermenstrual bleeding ,and/or abdominal pain,there is nothing to worry about.

It may be an issue for you if fibroid be large and give you some problems,but you don't refer any of them.

Hence don't think about it .

Your gynecologist didn't feel it because it may be small ,and the only way to show it is by ultrasound examination.

All the best

They found it on an X-ray at the chiropractor. Looks bigger than a golf ball on the X-ray. Going for ultrasound monday. I do not have heavy bleeding or mid cycle bleeding. I was fine until I knew and now I am having trouble eating very nervous. Not abdominal pain but lately since I found out I have a tightness under my breastbone. Went to my gp he felt around felt nothing. No urinary frequency but lately I am having more bowel movements. Perhaps my nerves are getting the best of me? My gp and chiropractor said its perfectly white and round and calcified and floating

Brief Answer:
All these symptoms have no relation with fibroid

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear again!

All that symptoms you mentioned above have no relation with fibroid ,even thought its size is as golf ball.

All your symptoms are related with excess stress you have while you may think bad things for your self.

Hence be calm because fibroid is a benign tumor and you don't need to make any treatment.

Best regards
