Laparoscopy

does anyone get anxiety about this procedure? I feel like it’s just me

hi I’m 2 days post, I’m in a lot of pain with my belly button incision it stings and is very painful since I come out of surgery the others are not as bad is this normal ?

My consultant has recommended in order to give my next cycle (cycle 5) the best possible chance, that I should do a a laparoscopy . This was a worry for me as I have low amh, that’s my nail concern .

good morning all the lovely ladies 🥰 I would like to ask you how long you been waiting for your laparoscopy?????

Another thing I should note is that if I want to get IVF through NHS it's likely that I need to have this laparoscopy to get a diagnosis (or not). The problem with this is that the wait time for a laparoscopy is apparently 6-9 months.

Hi guys, I’m waiting for laparoscopy at the CEMIG gynae centre at Ashford, P3 wait list. I’ve been given an appointment for pre-op assessment in a month but still no surgical date. Just wondering how long after pre-op people had surgery? Thanks!!

Hi everyone, just wondered what you were advised (if at all) prior to your surgery regarding alcohol consumption? I have my surgery on 30th May but I’m at an outdoor concert on Saturday 27th, and was hoping to have a few drinks. I don’t want to go wild as I don’t want a hangover right before an op and

What would be the reason for having an ultrasound after only recently having the laparoscopy? Thanks in advance for any replies

Hello, I have a laparoscopy booked for 21st march after 5 years of awful periods and finally going private and I am so scared, both of the procedure (I've never even had a general anesthetic before) and if they DON'T find anything that I'll feel like i've been making up how bad the pain is and overreacting

hi everyone, I am considering going private, tired of the long wait times for the NHS. Please , Anyone have a rough estimate of how much private consultation & procedure costs? Thanks

Hi, I’m 3 days post op, obviously some bruising after laparoscopy would be normal, but I seem to have excessive bruising in the centre of my stomach, also still very bloated. I had a laparoscopy 12 years ago and 2 c-sections since then and not had bruising like this.

But has anyone had there laparoscopy in Newham hospital? This is not my local hospital so I am a bit iffy

Only started since I've had laparoscopy last month but sometimes I can have cramping all day which is exhausting.

Hi, I had my laparoscopy 5 weeks ago and have been diagnosed with endo (12 years in the making!!). They inserted a coil at the same time as this. Since then my symptoms and pain have become 10x worse. Has anyone had this? Not sure if it is my body getting used to the coil.

hi, I’m due my first period after my laparoscopy this week; just wondered what your experiences were? I’m really anxious about everything at the moment. Thank you 😊

I’m having my 1st laparoscopy next week but realised I’m going to be on my period I can’t get in touch with the hospital, can they do it if I’m on my period ?

Hi, I’m due to have laparoscopy surgery tomorrow for endometriosis but I have just started my period, does anyone know if this will delay my surgery or if it can still go ahead please?

My gynecologist has just prescribed this to see if it helps with pain then failing this it will have to be a laparoscopy

I saw my go, who was brilliant and agreed 70 weeks was too long to wait for my Laparoscopy. She is writing to the consultant to expeditide. How long generally do you wait once it is expedited? Many thanks xx

my laparoscopy surgeon is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist when I googled him it did say he’s surgical work involves endo at the end of the list. I’m scared that he don’t see my endo as I’ve read so many stories on here
