So Iv finally been put on the list for a lap.

surgery where ii am is a waiting list of upto a year devastated. The pain ii have is so bad every month ii miss two weeks of life ii hate it. They suggested inducing a menopause but ii dnt want that.

So ii chose the mini pill along with the coil ii already have. And pray this brings some comfort. Xx

I waited 10 months for my lap after being put on the waiting list, just take each day as it comes and make cocodamol your friend. Youve got this you can do it lovely 💛

Yes its a very long anxious journey! Did what help? The cocodamol or the lap? The cocodamol made things bareable and the laparoscopy didnt help me personally as they couldnt remove my endometriosis 😔 the only thing that will help is going back on the pill which isnt an option as Im trying for a baby.

Yes the lap. Ii take cocodamol already prescribed ones 30mg of codine so that takes the edge off.

Oh no that’s terrible blessya. Did the pill help then? Cos ii should be starting soon. The coil has done nothing to help. Good luck with trying for a baby hope it goes well x
