I am trying to do normal day to day things, but can't be up for longer than 30mins before I'm sluggish and need my bed again. Pain feels like I have a weight in my tummy and a few shooting pains as before my lap. Am I just expecting to be up and about too quick? Am slowly going crazy!!!

I had a lap done in January and they drained cysts and removed some small patches of endo and it took a while to feel 100% again. Everyone is different but for me, I was back at work after two weeks. If you are really tired maybe you should get your iron levels and thyroid checked to make sure they are ok.

Didn't think about iron levels!! I am hoping to see my doctor tomorrow so will ask then. He is a good guy, and I'm lucky he is so understanding. I am also supposed to be flying to Egypt on 24th of this month so want to be tip top to travel
