I'm back
Well I had my lapo today. The doctor was able to remove the cyst and he did see the endometrioma which was of decent size. At one time, the endometrioma leaked and caused some scar tissue. He flushed out my tubes 3 times and my left tube is completely blocked, my right tube is clear. The endometriosis did spread wide and was able to clean it out. I had my gallbladder taken out in 2003 and the doctor said that if the camera moved a little bit they would've been able to see it. Anyway, he said that there is a pretty good chance that this will come back. He said that I could try and get pregnant on my own, but the chance of it coming back is there. So now its on to IVF for me. I have to go back next week for my follow up. So that's my update.

Re: I'm back
Thanks for all the well wishes. I feel very sore today. The gas pains in my stomach are killing me. I'm walking around like an old person. My throat is sore as well and I'm still coughing up flem. My husband and my in laws are coming over tonight to visit me because I'm staying with my parents. My follow up is next Thursday and I'll get the pathology reports back on my cyst. That's about it for now.

Re: I'm back
Hi, i had the same surgery, mine surgery was quiet extensive and it took me a good month to recover and get back to myself. Because of my endometriosis i had to resort to IVF.

Re: I'm back
Well, I'm walking around a lot better now, but still quite sore. I can't even laugh because I'll be in tears with pain. The doctor did some genetic testing and took a lot of pictures. My mom saw my pictures and she couldn't believe the quality of the pics. There was even a pic of where my gallbladder used to be. I'm actually have pain in that area now. My incisions are starting to get itchy and the bandages haven't fallen off yet. I tried showering with the plastic wrap around me to keep the bandages dry, but the plastic wrap just kept rolling down. To add insult to injury, AF decided to rear her ugly little head yesterday.
