I have a really big desision to make but I need some help.

Today I went to the doctor about the tumor I have in my leg.  The procedure I need I am knocked out for and I will need like 20 treatments!  I can't go under 20 times, I heard that it is bad for reproduction... does anyone know about that?  The pain in my leg is horrible but children are more important and I want 4 or 5 children, I wont give that up, Ill live with the pain if I have too.

So my question is does going under anishisa(sp?) too many times affect reproduction?

Going under anasthesia does not affect your fertility.  It has its own risks as do all procedures, but so does living with pain.  What kind of mom will you be if some days the pain is so bad you can't walk?  I think you should get the tumor removed.  It will better prepare you for the family you plan.

I cant get it removed because its too big but they inject my blood vessels and kill them but it has some major risks... Im sure its not good to go under over 20 times and in the end still not be able to walk.

It is probably best for you and your future children if you get this taken care of sooner rather than later.  Get it out of the way before you have to deal w/it while being pregnant or chasing a toddler.  Good luck.

is it benign?

[4EVERDK]

Yeah, it's not cancerous but its pretty painful and I just miscarried so I think thats why I have been having issues.
