6 days til laparoscopy and after finally losing the cough and cold I had for 3 weeks I have a bladder infection. Giant order to sort at work this week and all I can think about is how long I have waited for answers and my op could be cancelled if I'm unwell...wish I could turn my brain off 😣 getting antibiotics on my way in today...

U could try asking in ur local independant health food shop for a natural immune booster.. then u can take alongside ur antibiotics and hopefully come at it from both angles. Try some time destressing too cos stress lowers ur immunity

Hope u feel well soon. xx

I had a laparoscopy and dye. All I know is they found endometriosis and treated it. No idea where it was. If any was left. If it will need further treatment 😂

Woke with stomach pain and was given meds. Shoulder pain really is the worse. Stretching helps

I was treated at my local hospital. Was really efficient. In and out in 5.5 hours. The surgeon also works for Bupa. Also treats fertility issues...Couldn't fault anything.
