Ovaries are stuck back- feeling down

Hi ladies, I'm having a bit of a pitty party today. Last October I had a lap and diagnosed stage 4 endo with bowel involvement. My surgeon said he freed everything he could, including my ovaries which were badly stuck. Yesterday I had an internal scan to check Mirena position and I was told my ovaries are back stuck to my uterus with endo. It's hit me a bit hard, I knew endo could come back and would likely grow but I've had Mirena in for a year, a six month course of Zoladex, now on Desogestrel to compliement Mirena, and the endo is still growing! I feel like the past year has been for nothing!

Hi G3miniStar. This disease is so tough isn't it! Like you I was diagnosed with stage 4 endo last year. My lap was in December. My specialist did an internal ultrasound about a month ago and said my left ovary is stuck again 😔 I suspected it because of my symptoms but I was hoping it wasn't the case. I'm sorry I don't have anything helpful to say. I just wanted you to know you're not alone. Sometimes a pity party is what we need!

Hi Lovely, thank you so much for your reply. Again, I know it's not much but I'm sorry to hear about your ovary too. I just feel like I'm trying to fight this losing battle and feeling awful all the time. It just sucks, doesn't it!!
