Experiences with

Laparoscopy

Following a recent laparoscopy (have had several over the years), my consultant has found something on my liver that could also be endometriosis. I understand endometriosis in the liver is rare and wanted to find out if anyone else in the UK has been diagnosed. Many thanks

Hi ladies I wanted to see if anyone has been in a similar position. I have a small endometrioma on one ovary measuring approx 1 cm. This was first observed two years ago with my first fertility clinic. They were not concerned about it and actively told me not to remove it because of the risks of reducing

I have stage 3 endo and awaiting a third laparoscopy. I am bleeding heavier than without being on the pill and just feeling rubbish. I could literally sleep anywhere right now, is this normal? I’m in two minds about stopping it and just continue as I have done before. What do you think?

I’ve got my laparoscopy on Friday morning to diagnose and treat endo and I’m an absolute bundle of emotions. I haven’t slept for about 4 days because I keep thinking about it. When I do sleep I have horrible dreams about my surgery where I wake up during it or I’m never put to sleep.

Hi, I had my lap and excision in September and diagnosed with adenomyosis and endo. Over the past few months, the abdominal pain has steadily began again alongside rectal bleeding. I had the Mirena coil fitted 2 weeks ago to see if this would help (I’ve been on mini-pill since before my surgery). I was

I want to be put forward for a laparoscopy, which has already been recommended by my new GP. I’m just scared of being dismissed like I have been a million times before. Being told it’s all in my head even though my psychologist says it definitely isn’t and I know that too.

Can't believe it I can run for 30min at a time, with out collapsing. Couldn't even do a 440 lap at school and haven't run since. Thank you to everyone who has messaged me with support and advice, I started running with a metronome running at 160bpm and that help me to bring my cadence down from 180 to

I have this diagnoses and am on a very long waiting list for a laparoscopy. I saw a surgeon yesterday so asked me if I cared if they removed my full belly button!

Got an appointment within 7 days to see a consultant and have my laparoscopy booked for a week today!! Its getting closer and I'm terrified, not so much about the recovery or the op - mostly that they will find nothing.

Hi ladies. I don’t post much as my journey ended in February when we welcomed our daughter Eliza a sibling for Francesca. We endeared a long and difficult struggle for our family 3 endometriosis laparoscopic surgeries, 3 early miscarriages and a let loss of our daughter Amelia at 20 weeks pregnant. We

I have one frozen egg left which I plan to get transferred soon after the laparoscopy. Has anyone had a similar experience? I’m feeling like I’m approaching the last chance saloon and am super anxious.

Hi all, I wondered if anyone could help or advice. I have been on zodalex and hrt for 5 months and will be my six month injection next month. Zodalex has helped with my pain a lot and have been able to do things again, however I’ve started to notice that my old symptoms have been creeping in again

Most weeks lately I've been treating Parkrun as a recovery run, just slow and steady as it's a bit more demanding than my usual route ie it has slopes ;) The other day I was looking for an NRC guided run to help me along and found '5k race'. Yes, I know Parkrun isn't a race but I'm normally on my own

I am due to have a laparoscopy next week but the hospital has just phoned to say that the anaesthetist is not happy to do the surgery as my TSH is too low. I explained that I have Hashimotos, I take Armour and it's normal for my TSH to be suppressed.

Hello ! I've been wanting to reach out to people about this for a very long time and I was hoping I could maybe talk to anyone that has had the same or similar experience as me. Sorry for the essay by the way :) Here's some background, back in 2014 I was diagnosed with Endometriosis. It had been a very

Hi Guys, Groggy post op update. They found endo. :( . He didn't discuss severity (or at least I think he didn't was in recovery and out of it) they got rid of a few areas while in there. I also have adhesions between my belly button and peritoneum that he thought wasn't endo related so don't know what

I had my laparoscopy 7 months ago and amazingly, haven’t had any cramps or Endo pain since then however, I was woken up in the night with the worst pain and it just won’t stop. Has anyone else experienced this before? Hoping this isn’t the start of the pain again 😩

I had laparoscopy and treatment in November everything went well my periods were normal but painful ...4 months later I've had periods every 2 weeks for the past 8 weeks.

Hello I had the news I don't have endo which is what was expected. I'm rather upset as I was hoping to get a diagnosis of something! I just really want answers. I was booked in under a cancellation and from a Google I don't think the lead surgeon specialised in endometriosis but the hosptial is recognised

Hello I recently had the news I don't have endo which is what was expected. I'm rather upset as I was hoping to get a diagnosis of something! I just really want answers. Bit of background- I'm 26 and been pretty much signed off since February. The pains have been bad since last summer but have been present
