Long time no post. Lots has been happening but not happening quick enough.
In the last two weeks I've been under the care of two new specialists who have got things moving. I've had internal scans (yes more) and my first MRI scan to help diagnose my endometriosis and how deep it goes. The results were a bit unusual and turns out I have adenomyosis and endo.
I had already decided that I wanted a hysterectomy and when I said this to the specialist (s) they both agreed that total hysterectomy is the way forward, keeping one ovary so that I don't need to be on HRT (I'm too young). So, after that i was told it's a four week wait. Now I've been told 6/8.
In the mean time I'm trying to get more zoladex, I've had 6 but am due my next injection next week. Without it I think this could be a very painful horrid month or two. If I'm not able to have more I don't quite know what'll happen yet.

Well things haven't developed far. I was told I'd be in for my total hysterectomy in 3/4 weeks and that was six weeks ago, I'm now in line for my with zoladex injection next week and then they are still looking at least another month or two after that. Operating waiting lists are shocking. I was on the phone yesterday to my specialist who recommended I'm signed off or put onto stronger painkillers.
Realistaically the pain is something that I can cope with even though it's leaving me exhausted and very emotional, it's more the waiting and the op being put off and put off that's dragging me down.
Just trying to concentrate on the good things in life.
