i have my first lap two weeks today. needless to say i am really nervous, i keep having panic attacks, even waking up through the night panicking, and one reason is because i'm so scared i'll go under anesetic and keep thinking i wont wake up, ridiculous as everyone keeps telling me but my reason for

Hello, I saw my consultant yesterday and discussed further surgery options, seems I don't have many options as my bowel and uterus are stuck together so can't have the hysterectomy I'd hoped for. I'm now awaiting to have endometrial ablation and removal of adhesions on ureters along with endo removal

This is going to be long sorry but any infor would be good! Was having all the classic symptoms of endoalong with a very low immune system and was getting very ill.

Hiya all. Going to try cut a long story short and ask please if anyone has had the same experience or any advice for me please.

Will try and keep this very brief! I have head heavy and painful periods on and off for a few years, I have not had a lap yet.

my last gynae appointment was 23 july, had pre-op done that day as consultant agreed to take out mirena and do endometrial ablation, have been for a couple of scans since that app, but nobody said how long it could be or how they would get in contact so i've just phoned them to make sure i am on the
