[SH90]

Hey everyone

How soon after a lap can your endo flare up? I had a lap 9th Dec was diagnosed with depression last week and also lost my job and now I'm laying in bed 35 days late in serious pain and feeling very sick and down.

Hi, sorry your feeling so low, it's alful to go through a lap and then still be in pain, I've had the same thing, can I ask you,maws you treated in a BSGE centre,?

Remember the body takes time to recover, but saying that you should be feeling abit better by now, I would go to your GPS, take a water sample to be checked,

Did the docs give you anything for your depressions?

If you don't feel any better or different, I would ask your go fir a referral to a specialist endometriosis centre these are on a list called BSGE centres, and the surgeons are better qualified than genral genes, unfortunately genral gibes often miss endo as they don't recognise certain endo on certain locations,

Where was your endo found, and was it excised or ablated/burnt?

It was both ovaries and my womb wall and it was burnt away iv never heard of BSGE to be fair thevwholecthibg wasn't explained properly had my opp with the nhs woke up after surgery was really sick and then all they said was take paracetamol if in pain and take invest and sent me home on the same day

Hey, SH90! This is not the best time for you to be torn into pieces with your emotional sufferings. You must pull yourself together!! With such an outlook you won't succeed. I believe something is really going bad with your after lap health condition. I felt much better week 3 after the op. I believe this is not good for you to recover such a long period. You must go straight to your doc and tell him about everything. Staying depressed for 35 days in your bed is not the right way out.

Get something to distract you from thoughts which make you upset. Chat with someone right after her lapo, share your feelings. It will undoubtedly help. But the very first thing is to apply fot help to a good expert to see if there are no complications!!!

My heart goes for you as I experienced all the pain once. Hug you strongly and plead you BE WISE xxx

Hey karinyaa

I'm 35 days late on my period and iv been to the doctors and done 2 pregnancy tests both negative all my doctor keeps telling me is my body is taking its time to heal and the depression is due to hormonal changes but I keep pushing on with the doctor but in all honesty I'm tiered of trying

Hi Hun it can take a few months for your period to return . Don't be too hard on yourself, you've had an operation and lost your job. It's a lot to deal with. Give the antidepressants time to work . I've suffered with depression most of my life, so I know how hard it is. But you'll get there. Just try and stay strong and be kind to yourself. If you want to chat let me know. Take care Hun.
