Laparoscopy today

I am currently on my way to the hospital to get my exploratory laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy to hopefully diagnose endometriosis. I am beyond terrified and honestly kind of hopeful that they find whatever is causing my extreme pain. It is a textbook case of endometriosis symptoms, but I'm still a bit on edge. I feel like it's just the factor of not knowing.

It went well. The problem right now is pain management. But I would recommend getting a therapy dog to greet you as you wake up. It helps a lot to get your mind off of pain before they get it under control!

It was diagnostic but they burned endometriosis and did a hysteroscopy and took samples to confirm the endometriosis.

Knowing is so much better than not.

This is a quote is from "Endometriosis: A Key to Healing Through Nutrition" (great read): "Stop hating the part of the body that is letting you down. Rather look upon it as a sick little child and love it better."

All the best to you!
