Asked By:neyklem in Bedford, TX

I am 250 lb's with hypertension, pre diabetic and slightly blood pressure. Few month ago, I found out that I hav fibroids (multiple) my Gyno recommended hysterectomy surgery but I would like to know if it's possible these two surgery can be done at the same time. Also, there is a way to have hysterectomy done without a major surgery (removal of uterus) does this type of surgery covered by insurance?
