Good luck for tomorrow. I have the same fears. My lap is in May so I've a while to wait. I've had such horrendous abdominal pain today they just have to find something. I hope you get your answers.

Hi, good luck with your lap tomorrow, I'm 10 days post op now, and I felt the same, so worried that they wouldn't find any thing, unfortunately they found a fair bit wrong, diagnosed endo and excised from behind uterus and ligament, my uterus was twisted so he sorted that out, not quite sure what that means but he said it was successful so, but also I was diagnosed with adenomyosis, I'm due a follow up on 14 th April, and my surgeon has mention a hysterectomy, ive got 3 sons and am 39 so I wouldn't be duch a bad thing for me to accept.

Hope fully they will find something minor that's easy to deal with and then you'll be pain free,

My symtoms are pain in pelvic area, hips back legs down to knees, up bum, groin, and a very hot burning ache in my lower abdomen, pain during sex but mainly the day after, been suffering for years off and on but always put it down to my back, then the pains got more intense St the frount and closer together until September when they became pretty much daily, pain got worse after activities, anything from walking yo shopping to gardening,

Hospital was great, really lovely nurses and surgeon , I had a long wait but that's just the way it goes, I stayed in because I hadn't weed and I wanted my husband to get home for boys, and it was getting late. Got home around 11 the next day, and I'm feeling ok, unfortunately not any different from before op, but my doc thinks it's the adenomyosis causing the pain symptons not the endo, but it's still early days.

Get some peppermint tablets snd tea, it's good for the air that they put in you, and take a pillow for car journey home

Good luck xxx
