Hello everybody:

I am so sad ;) I had my second lap to remove endo Sept 2 2011 and I am already having pain.

Really? Can I just get at least 6 months without pain? 3?

Sorry to hear you are having pain already. Is this different to your last lap? Have you contacted your specialist?

It is just rotten when pain starts to come back but at least you know you can come here from support.

Hugs :)

wow, so sorry to hear. I am seriously considering surgery as I desperately wanna have a baby, but I'm even more nervous about surgery now. It just sucks that the pains are back so soon!

Hi ladies:
I am not taking bc my dr suggested Mirena in my post op. I have to decide and call him. Bc make me nauseus ;(

With my first lap my pain started about 2 months after the surgery.

Thanks

It can take your body up to 6 months to completely recover from the surgery.
