Re: 3 laps for endo??

The competence of the doctor has nothing to do with it. I myself have had 6 laps and a hysterectomy. The hysterectomy finally did the job. The frequency of surgeries just depends on your body and the stage of endo you have along with how many microscopic "spores" or "implants" you have. If they don't see it the first time you may have to go in again. That's what sucks about this disease. It's like Ba Ba's kids-- They don't die-they multiply. All of my surgeries were done over a period of 6 and a half years. Hope you are luckier than I was. Take Care, Jauna
