1st Gynae Since Lap - Back to Square One?!

I had my check up with the Gyno on Tuesday after having Endo and adhesion's removed in May with my first Lap...Since then my periods have been JUST as painful as before.

My next period is due in the next few days and I get married in a few weeks time - Obviously iv been so worried about loss of time/flaring up around the wedding!!

I dont feel like she was very helpful or informative even though I was in there for 45mins with her. She decided to put me on Norethisterone for the next 6 weeks then start me back on the pill....

I feel like im back at square one and feel really disappointed, like im being fobbed off.

Iv been on 13 different pills & had the implant and none of them worked for me - the pain was much much more bearable but i would bleed for weeks, sometimes up to 12 weeks!!! She hadn't requested my pill list from my GP so I just had to try remember what i had previously and got a few off A&E letters etc but she has put me on one iv already been on!!!! She has requested another meeting in about 4 months to see if its working for me or not.

Just feeling really really down and think a 13 year battle and Im just back on the pill again like i was at 12 years old.

Im finding it hard to think positive but suppose I just have to be thankful that the Norethisterone will make sure im not on over my wedding/honeymoon.

Hope everyone's having a pain free day - sorry for the rant.
