Advice for first specialist appointment

Hi all,

Hope you're well!

I was hoping to get your advice - as a bit of background, I was diagnosed with grade three endometriosis three months ago after collapsing and having emergency surgery on two ovarian cysts that caused a torsion. The endometriosis diagnosis was a bit of a shock and because I was also quite out of it post op I wasn't really prepared so didn't get as much info as I would have liked.

I have a specialist appointment coming up in August and want to get the most out of it. Does anyone have any advice on what to expect from the appointment and what questions I should ask?

Thanks so much for your advice!

Nina
