Hello everyone so I have finally had my operation done last Thursday. Must say it wasn't the greatest thing I have been through physically and emotionally. I had keyhole surgery where they cut my left ovary as I had an endo cyst and 2 others inside and burned endo around my bladder. They said I would feel better by Monday...it's now Thursdays an still feel like poop! After I came out I was in a lot of pain and stomach was swelled up with gas. My throat was also really sore and my shoulders felt really achy. I literally felt like death! The nurse end up giving me two different anti sickness injections as felt really bad. I also just found out I had an allergic reaction to something they gave me during my op as I am covered in spots all over my stomach and legs. My overall experience of my first op was scary and not Nice. But hopefully in a few weeks time it will be all worth it!:D I am finding it hard to get about and still feel exhausted. Now on road to recovery and hopefully start trying for a baby!

I am here if anyone's needs a chat or just someone to rant to. I know it's not the easiest thing to go through especially if your on your own or around people who just don't understand what your going through.

Xx

Sorry to hear you had a hard time 😞 Glad it's done! Now you can recover. It's taken me a full two weeks to feel mostly normal emotionally and only in a mild amount of pain. Everyone recovers differently so even though they may say you'll feel better a certain day, you may not.

I hope you feel better soon and have an uncomplicated recovery xx
