answer:I think it is worth trying a new doctor and getting a second opinion if you feel he is being dismissive. It’s important you feel like you have a partner with your medical care, rather than a doctor who takes the doctor patient scenerio too seriously. About your pain, you probably have tried this, but I will go ahead and say it, ibuprofen os a much much better pain reliever for period pan than Tylenol, and possibly better than Vicodin, depending on what exactly is causing the pain. Meaning your fibroids might be pressing on a part of you, so your pain is not just muscular cramping. You also might know, but I will go ahead and say it, that your fibroids will shring once you go into menopause. I only mention it, because if you are getting close you may not want a surgucal option loking at the risks and benefits.
