Total Pelvic Peritoneal Excision - Has anyone had this?

Hi guys.

So I'm pretty new to this and I've seen a few people mention Total Pelvic Peritoneal Excision. I was just wondering if anyone would be helpful enough to share there experiences with me?

I've tried prostap, multiple pills and had the coil fitted in January. I'm due to see my consultant next week and the pain hasn't really changed at all. I was going to ask if this is an option, but wanted to check a few things first.

Has anyone had this procedure on the NHS?

If you have had this, have your symptoms now gone/got any better?

I'm in a situation at work where I could ask for some funding towards surgery depending on a few things but I want to know a bit more information first.

If people have had it privately, would you mind advising me on a rough cost of this?

And did you have to go see a specific consultant for this? If so, does anyone know of one around South Wales area?

Thanks guys :)

Hi Lindle,

Still waiting on my notes from the hospital but spoke to his secretary on Friday who said she had received the request and worst case scenario is I can pick it up when I see him on Wednesday. Better late than never!

I have a list of questions to ask him ie what stage, how much was removed last surgery and where and if any was left.

I went back to the doctors on Friday because I had been back on Tramadol last week to help relieve the pain and needed more. doctors refused to give me anymore Tramadol but gave me Norethisterone to take on top of the coil and told me this should relieve my symptoms and co-codamol 30/500 just in case. Still in agony today and co-codamol isn't touching it at all tbh.

Just not sure what I can do to make it better :(
