I had a diagnostic laproscopy last month which confirmed endometriosis. Visible endo was treated with diathermy from a variety of places (pelvic walls, ligaments, pouch of douglas etc) and the mirena coil was fitted surgically at the same time.
I was told to visit GP in 4-6 weeks post op for review and mirena coil check. I explained to GP I was still having a lot of pain, cramps, bleeding, passing of clots and fatigue. GP said they don’t usually check mirena and I should do this myself. I advised I was in too much pain to check myself and couldn’t feel the threads when I had tried. She felt very quickly and said she could feel them anyway. Since then I have felt them on one occasion but continue to have erratic symptoms. She said ‘get better soon’ and told me to wait for more info from Gynae consultant follow up (which is another 5 months even though told it would be in 10-12 weeks).
I have returned to work with reduced hours and duties but even that is wearing me out. I have been full of cold/flu symptoms too since operation and have good and bad days.
I know everyone is different but wanted to have an idea of recovery times/when mirena is likely to settle symptoms? What happens at Gynae follow up? Do you see if symptoms flare up again and then get another lap? Are you followed up regularly?
Thank you 
Recovery times for laproscopy
Recovery after laproscopy
laproscopy recovery average timescale?
Anyone had adhesions removed to then be told it isn’t endometriosis?
