I've just had a laparoscopy to treat endo, they discovered more in there than they had realised but feel they've got as much as the can.

There were organs stuck to other organs and a 6cm endometrioma inside one of my ovaries but the other thing they mentioned was that they removed a lot of small spots of endo from the ligaments in my abdomen and I just wondered if anyone else had this? This I believe is what has also been causing problems with my sciatic nerve.

Thanks Cat. I hope you have a pain free Christmas. After looking at my discharge summary it was the uterosacral ligaments that they had found endo on. Sorry I think I am still feeling the effects of the anesthetic x
