I was just wondering how many laparoscopy ops people have had and how far apart were they?

I had my first in January but all pain has now returned so they want to see me in December but i am asking to be seen sooner however I don't know what they will be allowed to do or what they will suggest.

Please, all advice needed :(

Thank you both for your replies. Both are very helpful!

I shall hopefully hear back from the hospital this week with regards to a date to see my gyneo sooner than December. They said that they will want to talk about my options and when I want to start trying for children so hopefully they'll do another Lap to clear it again!
