Appointment has arrived

4 Replies

Hi all, I've had my appointment come to see my gynaecologist for the 5th June....haven't done to bad because I've not seen him for the last 12 years. All being well this will be my final time for him to sort me out as i'm hoping he will offer me a hysterectomy. Don't know if this will be the answer to helping endo on my bowels and bladder but at least it will solve the endo on my womb, im sure I will know soon enough. Will keep you all posted as to how it goes...xx

Hopefully he is a endo adhesion specialist gyne! A endo specialist said in a talk fairly recently that

radical surgery often involving a bowel ressection is the most effective approach. However Hysterectomy works for some and not so well for others, it is not always a cure for this condition. Getting all of the endo and adhesions excised is apparently vital to outcome. All the best
