Experiences with

Caesarean section

Hi, since having a Caesarean section 24 years ago, I have suffered from painful adhesions.

Just sharing to give hope to all our fellow IVF warriors out there.

I believe I have endometriosis but still have to be diagnosed, I have had 2 c-section and since the second my pain has been awful but I would like another baby! So I’m in to mind to keep following doctors orders into getting a diagnosis (trying pill for 3 months to see if it gets rid of symptoms) or

Had my laparoscopy, excision, cysctcopy and hysterocopy just over a week ago. My scars from the laparoscopy are healing fine but during the surgery they had to reopen about 3/4s of my c-section scar. It is absolute agony still. I'm in so much pain and feel so rubbish and weak. I can barely walk it's

So I know I’m being totally stupid here but I just can’t stop worrying. I’ve been having a few problems with very high heart rate (usually always 130+ when standing and around 90-100 at rest) so I’ve been referred to cardiology for that as I’ve been worrying but dr doesn’t seem to bothered about it

I had a strangulated hernia and emergency surgery 15 years ago after years of pain and constipation. Also 3 c-sections. Since those days I've suffered with constipation, stomach pain, occasional diarrhea with bleeding. Anyone have similar symptoms from adhesions or damage from these surgeries?

Hi everyone, Firstly I wanted to thank everyone who has always supported me, responded to my questions, made me feel better when I was low and encouraged me to keep going. When I first started using this forum I was extremely depressed and low. I genuinely lost hope of getting pregnant and having a

After my waters breaking at 30 weeks 3 days, I was hoping the little ones would stay in a bit longer to get a bit bigger (but also then worried about infection getting in, so also worried about staying pregnant!).
