Well, I made it through my surgery and returned about an hour and a half ago. Some good news some bad news. The good news is that my RE was able to remove a LOT of scar tissue that I had. This is from the ovary removal surgery when I was 5. She removed all of that and did not find any endo or fibroids. Now the bad news, she was unable to reconnect my right fallopian tube so IVF is the only way for us to concieve. I am not sure how I feel about IVF vs. Adoption and so DH and I are going to discuss our options and go from there. My post op appointment is next Friday so I am sure that the doc will talk to us more about it then.
Thanks for all your prayers and support. It really helped to make me feel better about the surgery. I am tired so i am going to take a nap, I just thought I would update everyone who was interested.

I'm sorry for your bad news, and you sound like you are quite the trooper. I was so passed out after my lap that I'm impressed by your positive spirit of even being on here. I hope you and your DH feel excited about whatever decision.

I am sorry. Whatever you and your DH decide will be great. I will be thinking about you.

Glad to hear the positive, sorry about the bad news though. I know it is hard to hear the only way of conceiving is IVF. I have NO tubes so IVF is my only option but I refuse to give up until I get my BFP. Just think of this surgery as a road to your bundle of joy.

I just had a lap a couple weeks ago and had a similar experience. The doc said that there was no endo or anything & things looked good, but he found out that both my tubes are blocked. My husband and I are also talking about our options . . IVF or adoption. As for now, I'm very excited (and a little scared) to try IVF, but I know adoption will always be an option. I know I will be a mom someday. I know you will, too! Take time to rest up and do something that makes you happy :) Good luck to you! Keep us updated w/ what you decide to do.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
