Hi I thought Iā€™d let you know how I got on , wasnā€™t to good , Iā€™ve been diagnosed as stage 4 endometriosis, I will need a major op next thing is a mri then op I jus hope itā€™s not too long to wait xx

Oh hon Iā€™m so sorry.

You must feel devastated.

I have seen my endo specialist and Iā€™ve been referred for my third lap this time with an endo surgeon ; from what they were told ( photos werenā€™t good enough to send) itā€™s superficial endo but all over my rectum the endo consultant is confident he can get at it ( the one they couldnā€™t remove) but heā€™s confused why Iā€™m bleeding from my bottom during my periods as thatā€™s a sign of deep endo šŸ˜± so if when he opens me up and itā€™s too deep for him to treat ill be referred for having major surgery too šŸ˜±

Endometriosis is such a hideous disease. Mines got worse since the first lap.

I hope a date becomes available soon and you are not waiting that long.

Have they referred you to a pain clinic to help with symptoms? xoxo

Have you had a MRI as they told me the reason Iā€™ve to get a mri is to see how deep it all is and once they have my results thatā€™s when Iā€™ll have a meeting with my surgeonā€™s , I have an appointment start of may with my endo specialist so I will be asking a lot of questions then..

do you have your op soon? And if so how long did you have to wait ? I know every hospital is different , all I was told was months ...

No they didnā€™t offer me an MRI scan he is going on what my fertility specialist has told him; they are colleagues.

Mine is a 20-30 week wait šŸ˜±my last two laps were only a 8 week wait. Strange how it varies with the hospitals.

Iā€™ve contacted my endo nurse and explained how bad my period has been this month ( details on my last post) and I hope she can either give me something to help me cope with the period itā€™s difficult as Iā€™m ttc šŸ¤¦šŸ½ā€ā™€ļøfeel caught between a rock n hard place šŸ™ˆ

Itā€™s awful having to wait so long when in so much pain ā˜¹ļøxoxo
