Just thought I'd update everyone of my experience. Am currently still in hospital following excision of recto-vaginal endometriosis. I was in theatre for over 8 hours at a specialist centre. They are happy that they have removed it all - a big nodule pulling down my rectum and through my ureter and then another in my vaginal wall. I have a stent fitted in my ureter which will be removed under general anaesthetic in 6 weeks time. They will check then whether my ureter has sealed back together by using a dye. i have to say that the experience of being treated at a specialist centre has been amazing and that its so much more understood and respected.

Hi wind mill
Hope you have recovered from your op ,I also have just had surgery in the same endo centre as you and the expertise was great I felt very confident let's hope it works!!!
All the best
I am getting there thanks, ended up being re-admitted with a kidney infection so was on antibiotics for 3 weeks. how are you? I went back on Monday and had my stent removed so had another general anaesthetic. But the good news was that my ureter has sealed and therefore I didn't need a stent re-fitted. Even though I was in the urology clinic, the gynae consultant came to see me while I was waiting for my anaesthetic. I really rate him as a consultant/ surgeon, he's seems genuinely concerned and caring towards patients and certainly goes the extra mile! How are things going for you?
