Hi,
Last January I had laparoscopic surgery to diagnose endometriosis. Turned out I have stage 4 endo, adhesions, scarring, and a couple of endometriomas. The surgeon said he tried to get rid of as much as he could but there was a lot. 3 months later I was put on gnhr analogue injections for 6 months (that’s another story) as I still had a lot of pain and there was active endo he couldn’t remove. I am due my final injection in November and then a follow up with my surgeon in the December. I am worried that a month will not be enough time to see if my pain comes back and I am worried that I will be discharged from his service. Just wondering has any advice or experiance about what might happen after my appointment ?
It’s complicated by the fact that me and my partner want to start trying for a child. I mentioned this to my surgeon before the injections but he recommended doing them before we start. I am a 35 and with my history stated above I realise are chances are very low to have them naturally. My anxiety around my fertility is very high. I did go to my gp and they stated that even with my endo and scarring on fallopian tubes and ovaries we would still have to try for 6 months before they can start doing the tests to see if we can be put on the waiting list for fertility treatment. Again just wondering if anyone had any advice or experiance with any of this.
I have felt so lost with all of this.
Thanks!
