worry abot laparoscopy

[alex_on]

Здравейте. Ще правя лапароскопия след много месеци чакане. Първите лекари не вярваха в болката ми. Но последният го направи. Не съм 100% сигурен, че имам ендо, защото ултразвукът ми беше ясен. Но тази болка в ректума ми, болезнен полов акт, коремна болка след половин месец ми казва, че имам ендо. За съжаление в моята страна няма ендо специалист, но аз вярвам в моя лекар. Какъв случай, ако нямах ендо? Хапчето не ми помогна и се страхувам да чуя, че нямах ендо. Моля, дайте ми съвет, не знам какво да правя.

Hi Alex. I had to use Google translate for your post, я говорю по русски плохо and Bulgarian is beyond me.

Endometriosis will not be visible on an ultrasound unless you have something like an endometrioma cyst, which will show up. A laparoscopy is the only way to be sure of a diagnosis.

I know it's very common to worry that the laparoscopy will find nothing. However, there is no point worrying about it now, when you know you will be having the operation soon! Hang in there!

There is a very good chance that you will receive a diagnosis, which is both a blessing and a curse.

However, if for some reason they don't find anything, it would be almost unbearably frustrating but it's not such a bad thing in some ways -- it might mean, for example, that your fertility will be ok if there are no visible problems inside. I know you want an explanation, but if it turns out that you have really terrible endometriosis, that would be bad news in many ways. Even if you get a diagnosis and the endo is excised surgically, for a lot of people the pain comes back after a while, and the healing process is also painful.

I'm hoping for your sake that you get answers, but also that you also get good news and not bad news. Best wishes xx
