Meeting surgeon

[Harry89]

Hi I'm meeting my surgeon who is doing my lap on Tuesday does anyone have any advice on what questions to ask or to say to him?

Hi,

Ask him which stage of endo are you removing? Also ask him if there is anything related to bowel or bladder area? What is the impact of the anesthetic, side effect and generally how long it will take to recover from it.

You should ask him if he'll excise the endometrial lesions or burn them. Excision is the only method to thoroughly remove endometriosis, otherwise, you will still be in pain after the surgery and will need more laporoscopies in the future. x

Okay great thank you. Just hope he doesn't fob me off or is vague about things!
