Excision or Ablation-whats better?
I've had two laparoscopic procedures with
diathermy
before but its come back after couple of years each time. Now I have the option to have excision procedure and wondered if that would be better.

First lap.
In my report it said they used
diathermy
to remove endometriosis from pod and womb and 2cm chocolate cyst on left ovary and a 1cm cyst on right. I have been reading trying to figure out what stage this is does anybody know?

🎉Diagnosis endometriosis 🎉 Almost 5 years ttc 4 ivfs and 1 miscarriage!!!
So I had my laporoscopy yesterday and I had
diathermy
endometriosis on my left ovary but not on my right where I get the pelvic pain 🤔 which confused me. I'm wondering if it was my right ovary though as my incision on the right hurts but I can't feel the left.

Laporoscopy - what next??
I haven't had any follow up yet and my gp discharge letter just says " ovary endometriosis
diathermy
". I was still coming round from the anasthetic when the doctor spoke to me so I'm left wondering what I've had done.

Ablation vs excision - does anyone else feel cheated?!
Hi, My story: NHS lap 16th December 2016 confirmed stage 1 endo and "removed" via
diathermy
. Private healthcare lap 28th March 2017 confirmed STAGE 3 endo (due to not being removed!!!!) spread throughout my entire pelvis and removed PROPERLY via excision.

Post lap recovery
Hi All, I had my first laparoscopy and
diathermy
on Monday. I was in a lot of pain on Tuesday, mainly caused by the remaining gas in my body. I think much of it has gone, but it is now Sunday and I am still suffering from a pain in my left side, just under my ribcage, as well as headaches.

It's back again!
I had a lap 18months ago and was diagnosed with grade 2 endo on my uterosacral ligaments, and had
diathermy
to get rid of what they could see. A couple of months after the op I couldn't believe how much better I felt with no pain at all.

Reoccuring pain after excision
I had a fight to get the excision surgery as I live in North Wales where only
diathermy
is carried out. Eventually I got to a wonderful surgeon over the border and had really high hopes that this would work for me.

Waiting results of Colposcopy
The actual test was quite traumatic as the consultant did a "deeper than usual biopsy" then decided on a Loop
Diathermy
. I am still bleeding even though I have had some pills from the GP that I have been taking for a week to stop the bleeding.

How did you feel after your laparoscopy?
Did your pain after your laparoscopy and
diathermy
improve or were you still in pain after the operation? If you were still in pain after the operation - what did you/the hospital do?

Advice following diathermy of cervix
I've recently had a hysterscopy, diagnostic laparoscopy resulting in
diathermy
of the cervix. When I came round from surgery the gynaecologist said there was no issues with the outside of my womb (yay!)

Success story!
After having a lap and removal of endo via
diathermy
on the 16th Dec, I finally got a phone call from the surgeon yesterday to say that I should now be completely clear of endo and my fertility shouldn't have been affected by it at all!

It's wasn't all in my head!
Had endo on my left pelvic sidewall and left side of pouch of douglas they removed the endo with scissors and used the
diathermy
under where they had cut away. My right ovary was stuck to my right pelvic sidewall. My right ovary adhesions were cut away.

3 days post lap with successful endo removal
But you will not believe the relief I have had when the doctor told me that I had endometriosis and they had successfully removed it all via
diathermy
.

Endo pain 6 months after lap
Hi, I had a lap done in June where they found mild endo and I had
diathermy
to remove it and for a good couple of months I felt so much better, not so tired and limited pelvic pain. The last few months however I have had pelvic pain every day! and I am getting back to the exhausted phase again.
