I posted a few week ago, now I have had finally the acknowledgement I was not wasting time or a bed. (Was told this during my admittance. I was referred elsewhere, where more tears were done including smear, analysis etc. I went in for my laparoscopy last Monday. Went into theatre pained and scared that was it all in my mind like I've also been previously told and wasting time. Coming round I was told it was severe endometrisos, they has found small deposits leading to adhesions.

Nearly a week on and I feel like a new me, no pain as such little bit around my right side, which was where I had most the pain, then got a little infection in one of my wounds.

What I'm saying is trust your body.

Now just a quick question for some, the consultant has induced an early menopauE for using hormone tablets and the injection. The injection I can only be on for 6 months (this being my second) what happens when it reaches the end of that period, so I stay on HRT? I know without the endometrisos will surely come back, a hysterectomy is out the question purely for my age. I have one daughter so I'm lucky in that respect but our quality of life this year has been 0 down toy condition. She has been like a carer finding me collaspes from pain and blood loss at top of stairs to helping me hold my hair being sick. It is I that should be the one looking after her, not the other way around. Please if anyone can shed light or experience in preventing the condition returning. I would love to get in contact.

Thankyou
