Nicole,

Welcome to the forum, My first question to you is did the Dr. remove ALL of the endo when he did the hysterectomy ? My second question is are you on any HRT?Third question is with hemhorraging after the hysterectomy has any one ever mentioned adhesions ?I had a LAVH and LSO 4/98 and developed a hematoma that had to be surgically drained 10 days later, After that I had 3 laporoscopies to remove adhesions and with the last laporoscopy 11/99 I was diagnosed with endo and had an RSO.I am still suffering with what I believe to be endo related pain.If you are taking HRT and the Dr. did not remove all of the endo this could be the reason why you are still having the same pain.Hope this helps If you have any questions please feel free to ask,
