Recovery from laparoscopic removal of Stage 4 Endo - bowel surgery - removal of ovarian cyst.

[Micasmum]

Hi guys,

Please sorry to pop up again . I’ve just had my stage 4 endo surgery which affected my bowel which was worked on and I had ovarian cysts taken out as well.

today makes it one week. Recovery seems like hell for me especially the past few days.

peeing is my worst nightmare, extremely painful, then my pelvic region feels so so heavy that I can barely stand or sit. I’m still taking antibiotics that was given to me to prevent Infection reasons I’m ruling infection out.

Today is the third day I’m feeling this symptoms and the worst thing is that heaviness isn’t adhering to pain killers .

please did anyone feel this way while recovering so I know if I should call the hospital or not.

Thank you 🙏

I haven’t had my surgery yet but I’m told it’ll involve my bowels too. It’s sounds like we’ve had a similar situation. I just wanted to say don’t hesitate to get in touch with the hospital and tell them how you feel. They’re the ones who did your surgery so they should be able to tell you if How you feel is to be expected because they know how your surgery went. You’ve had complex surgery, you shouldn’t hesitate to call them for reassurance. Good luck , I hope you recover well.
