I had a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy for diagnosing endometriosis, tubal disease, and uterine fibroids. He was able to open my blocked tube and remove 2 fibroids from my uterus during this surgery. But the endometriosis is too extenssive so I'm going to have another surgery next month to have that excised (including removing my appendix because it had endometriosis all over it), and also to reconstruct my fimbria which was blunted. I'll post some pictures the doc took of my insides (with hide tags) when I manage to get up lol. I'm sure you'd all love to see my uterus.

The surgery is supposed to possibly improve fertility because it's treating the problems. Whether or not it'll work for me personally is yet to be determined though.

I hope it works for you. I have a cousin who suffers from endometriosis and she now has two adorable boys. I don't know how she treated it but there you go. Cheers to us and our respective recoveries.

Thank you love. <3 My biggest thing right now as far as recovery goes is the nausea, constipation, fatigue, and abdominal pain. Since they pierced through my ab muscle, any movement of my torso hurts. You don't realize how much you use your abdominals lol. You really do use them for everything. Mainly turning over in bed hurts and getting up out of bed to go to the bathroom. You?

I'm even sure of that! I wish you all the best, a beautiful and joyful life with a bunch of wonderful children around! Girls wanna hug you tight!!

You're so sweet!

I have a cousin who suffers from endometriosis and she now has two adorable boys. I don't know how she treated it but there you go. My surgery was definitely less intense than yours: I had a double mastectomy without reconstruction so no muscles were cut aside from removing the fascia. My recovery is mostly my skin healing back to itself and waiting for range of motion to come back. I was on enough antibiotics to give me some gnarly diarrhea though, and I have quite a bit of nausea day to day, but I'm not bed ridden or anything. I have a bit of muscle fatigue too, and I'm trying to work it out by going for walks add much as I can but with this being Oregon it's rainy out and waking on a treadmill isn't the same. The hardest part of my recovery is the anxiety right now. As long as I was in chemo I felt like I was doing something proactive, I had major anxiety pre-surgery because I've never done anything like that before and I have issues regarding bodily integrity, and now I'm in this weird limbo with the question of radiation so out there and questions about the future lingering. Uh, I need to go eat something or take a nausea pill... I'll try the former first.
