radical endometriosis surgery recovery.

[Heidi11]

hi just wondered if anyone knows how long recovery is for total pelvic clearance, that is removal of ovaries, fallopian tubes and cervix (I had subtotal hyst last year) and excision of endometriosis with poss bowel resection. Any info would be great, plus does anyone know if endo will come back without my ovaries or could I still end up in pain.
