Hi I’ve just been diagnosed with endometriosis and I had my 1st lap on 14th June. Had lots of adhesions, things stuck, cysts Endo and tube removed. My tummy is still really swollen. Does anyone know how long this usually lasts?

I had my lap on the same day, although this is my second it’s taking some time to recover this time round. First lap I was back to work 2&half weeks. This time round I’m still in lots of pain, sleeping and very tender to touch my stomach. Keep resting and I hope you have a speedy recovery x
