LAP & DYE

[anko]

Hi, I am new here.

I had planned lap surgery to remove a cyst that was growing on my ovary and check for endo.( i was experiencing fertility issues and was receiving treatment for this). Unfortunately, before i had surgery my condition deteriorated and they took my blood and ran a CA125 blood test and diagnosed me with endo and they did an MRI scan whilst i was in hospital and it came back showing inflammation on one of my Fallopian tubes.

When i had my scheduled pre-op with the consultant we did discuss what would happen in surgery should anything arise e.g if the ovary was find damaged as a result of the cyst it would be removed. He was going to check if my tubes were functioning by doing the dying test whilst having the lap and we discussed that if the tubes were retaining water and no functioning he would remove them. He informed me that there is higher chance of ectopic pregnancy if the Fallopian tube is retaining water and it is not removed.

I think because i am under his care for fertility issues, i schedule for an op sooner as the next step may refer to IVF. Any guidance would be good.
