A member asked:
My wife was diagnosed with 6 small fibroids. any connection to swollen left leg? gyno was dismissive. should we get 2nd opinion from internist?

Size and location: You could ask your doctor to discuss the size and location of the fibroid. It would have to be very large to be the cause of a swollen leg. It is prudent to see an internist regarding the possible causes of leg swelling so that this can be evaluated as well as the fibroids
