I scheduled another appointment today to see him Feb 28 and I am telling him that i want a lap done. I just want to know what is going in there and than i will make my mind up if i need to have other things removed. He is actually a very good doctor i guess he just doesnt want to just do the surgery because I am only 30 and will have to have many more. I myself need a 100% diagnoses because its been already 15 yrs and I am not going on another 15 like this. I do feel better when it comes to the hormones issue but as for the pain in abdominal it is everywhere i cant say its just here or there is all over all the time. i know its covered inside and even if I am on the pill and its not growing, it was for 15 yrs and it can or did cause damage. Doctors are just rrrrr all dumb lol..

I had a lap last Tuesday. I am 29 years old and have suspected endo because I get horrific cramps. I'm glad I had it done. We have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years now and sure enough endo is our problem. My right ovary and fallopian tube were stuck to my bladder. My doctor fixed this problem and removed as much endo as she could get.
I am a big baby when it comes to any medical procedures and before this I had never had surgery before. It really was not bad. I am glad I did it. I'm feeling better already so the recovery time is very short. They just make an incision above your pubic bone and by your naval. I believe they use a tube like camera to get a better look and then laser off any endo they find.

I'm not sure what is going on here, but if you would like a message to be intended for only one person, it is probably best to join the forum as a member, which will allow you access to the private message system and an inbox/outbox.

Hi Jill, I am scheduled for a lap on 3/15/07 I am scared. I have been trying to get pregnant for a while but it hasn't worked. I have other problems thats why my dr. think I have endo. How long did it take you to recover an dhow long did it take for the dr to tell you what he found? I'm just really scared and need someone to talk to about all of this.
