Hi, I'm in a slightly similar position to you. It is likely that the pain is adhesions reforming but I don't think they can tell except by doing another lap. However the more surgery we have the more scar tissue and adhesions will form. It's a catch 22 situation. Having read about it they can use something while doing surgery to reduce the likely good of adhesions.

It is also very difficult to get rid of all the endo. There can be very small spots of it.

I think you need to get some good advice from an expert. This is what I am going to try and do in the next few weeks. Hope things improve for you.

What painkillers do you have?
