Do u suffer ibs symptoms too as I know ive got to be referred to see gastro with my mine too I think it's coz they can look into the bowel as my bowel fequently fuses to something when they operate x

im afraid I can't answer your question but wanted to wish you well. I'm on a waiting list to see a gynae consultant as my endo has flared up after a hysterectomy three years ago that I had for other reasons. At the time endo was on my bowel and its now so painful. Hope all goes well for you.

Hi, it's probably to check if the endo has gone through to the inside of the bowel. I had the same going on inside me but ended up going private and they checked mine using MRI scan. My first consuleant wanted to operate and remove my bowel but my second Mr Trehan said any such surgery could increase risk of endometriosis and may not get rid of all the endometriosis and pain. I went with him and thank god I'm pain free with my insides intact. Hope things go well for you x
