Extreme pain after laparoscopic surgery

[endo95]

hi

I had my first op for endometriosis yesterday, they found endometriosis on both ovary's, perineum and my bowel. My ovaries were stuck to my perineum so they did a suspension to free then which is so painful. Im just wondering if anybody else had this level of pain I cant walk or even move its horrible

hey!

The pain is likely going to be bad but you should be able to gently move like to go to the toilet. But for the first few days i was pretty well laid up! Have you spoken to the day surgery ward about your pain being extreme? Xxx

Also, is the pain a cramping pain? Is it also in your shoulder? Xxx

hi, it was so bad/unmanageable, I also had ovaries suspension which is really bad too but ended going back into hospital for management,back home now but still struggling (this is day 3) can move to the toilet but doubled over xx

Sorry for the late response, been a hectic weekend! How are you feeling now? The first few days are definitely rough! I'm glad they got you back in and saw you, did they give you some decent pain relief for at home? Xxx

Pain after an operation should be managed: if the pain relief you have been given isnt cutting it please get in touch with the hospital or your GP to get some more help.

yeah I ended up back in hospital for pain management as nothing seems to be working

Sorry you are struggling, and I'm glad you're being taken care of. Hope they find a solution for you soon.
