What next if it is on my bowel?

[Don1980]

Hi ladies, I'm waiting for my first Lap (and cyst removal). My gynea told me that if endo is on my bowel then I'll have to go back for more surgery with a bowel surgeon. What else should I expect and what are your experiences? Feeling anxious here

If endo is suspected on your bowel, I would ask your go for a refferal to a bsge centre, that way they will do a laparoscopy with a bowel surgeon present, and they can do the surgery at the same time, have you had a MRI scan,

What makesthem think it's on bowel ,?

I haven't had an MRI no. They suspect it's on my bowel because I get pain after a bowel movement and sometimes when I need to go. I get diorreah when I get period pain too.
