    I was supposed to have that done, but ended up having what they call the roller ball. I had a polyp on my urterus that he had to remove , so I had to go in the afternoon before my procedure and have what the nurse told me was some sort of seaweed put into my uterus. I know sounds wierd, I thought she was joking at first. That was to dilate my uterus, and was very uncomfortable and I cramped all night from that.Turns out, it worked too well and I was over dilated, so the normal ablation thing wasn't going to work. He told me it would take up to 6 months before I woud l know if it it really worked and about 4 months after I got excited, my cycle was very short and very little cramping. Well, it's been about 9 months and I'm almost back where I started to begin with. It's time for my yearly exam, so I will be telling him that I'm still having problems. I cramped after the procedure for about a week, then I was ok, but the bleeding lasted while, but don't I think it was 90 days.
    I do hope you fall into that lucky catergory, not all of can be so lucky!!!

    Kim, I'm sorry that I just noticed this. I also never heard of this procedure and all I can say is "OUCHIE!!!"

    I hope you are feeling better today and everything will be better for you from here on in.

    Take care and take it easy.
