Bob update (ICD wound revision)
This was to avoid the plasma/
diathermy
cutter from confusing my ICD and it delivering a shock. When someone is doing fiddly work, it's most inconvenient if the patient jolts about, so I thought this was a sensible precaution. In went the local anaesthetic and the surgeon began her work.

Ultrasounds/MRIs - My experience and why you need to advocate for yourself if they don’t show Endo!
. - I felt better after
diathermy
treatment than excision treatment, so again each person will respond differently to different treatments. The excision might be gold standard but I will take
diathermy
treatment any day.

Endometriosis diagnosis
Once I came round from the surgery I had a 2 min discussion with the consultant, who said she had found and used
diathermy
to remove endometriosis on my bladder and uterus but could only partially remove the cyst on my ovary and to get in touch if I decided to pursue hormonal medication.

Late period after laparoscopy
I had my laparoscopy two weeks ago, they found endo and a load of adhesions so performed
diathermy
. My period is now 4 days late. I did a pregnancy test at the hospital before the op. Did anyone else experience a late period after surgery?

Feeling a bit lost after being ditched by hospital/GP after surgery/diagnosis
symptoms for about a decade (and I have some other health conditions), but I finally got a referral to a gynaecologist last year and I had a laparoscopy on 27th May 2022 which the consultant came to me afterwards and said that she had found a couple of patches of endometriosis that she had treated with

Post Op Incisions - normal sounding or not?
They did find endo and used
diathermy
(I don't know much beyond that until post op consult next month) I'm just wondering at the moment about the incisions. I was fortunate enough to only have two. The lower one has been fine - dry with some bruising but about as you'd expect.

laparoscopy findings-what’s your thoughts?
The findings revealed the following; - destruction of endo lesion of peritoneum -
diathermy
see endo on left uterosacral ligament I also have 2 fibroids 3cm and 4cm (consultant said it wasn’t near the colon when looked at through the laparoscopy). They haven’t treated the fibroids.

Stage 1 endo burnt out and still hurting! Why?
When I awoke from my laparoscopy over 19 days now, my consultant said that he only found a small area of active endo and an old bit of endo and got rid of both with
diathermy
and that by the time he had finished there was no endo left.

Laparoscopy - when to remove incision dressings?
I had it removed via excision/
diathermy
and am now recovering well. One piece of advice I must have missed on discharge is when to completely remove the dressings covering the incisions.

Return of pain
She ‘treated’ the endo with
diathermy
in my pelvis and on my cervix. I have to say, my daily pain has reduced but when I have a flare up or a period, I feel like the pain is worse than ever.

Help!
My surgeon excised most of the endo, except for some on my left ovary which she burned using
diathermy
. I also got the mirena put in. After surgery, I had no pain and I was feeling amazing because I wasn't getting my periods anymore.

Overwhelmed. Is this endo related? Bowel issues
I was diagnosed with endometriosis 4 years ago and had
diathermy
. It took me a while to recover but my symptoms improved a lot and I would say they have generally been mild the last 3 years.

Experiences with Zoladex
Story cut short - I got my diagnosis of endo in January 2020 via lap (including
diathermy
treatment) after 12 years of suffering and complaining. The op and treatment although my consultant said was successful, hasn’t worked and my pain has only been exacerbated.

Started my first period in years after Endo surgery?
Lots of tests 2 laparoscopic surgeries with one cyst removed and Endo treated with
diathermy
in Feb this year. I’ve been on the mirena coil for a year now and was on the depo injection for years before that.

Ruptured cyst?
I only had my last endo surgery 3 months ago (part
diathermy
, part excision) so I'd be surprised if its THIS bad so soon. And the abdo pain has been at the regular level since the incident and not quite so localised. Does this sound more like a cyst rupture than normal endo pain?
