advice please!

Previous message: ingrid: "Re: cyst after hysterectomy" Good evening, Ladies~ Hope everyone is doing okay out there. I have a recent concern. I'm currently seeing a reproductive endocrinologist who deals with endo issues. This past August, at the end of the month, I had an emergency laparotomy due to two large (10cm) cysts on either ovary, the left ovary being in torsion, and a few other dilemmas. My OBGYN did this surgery and then sent me to the specialist for further treatment. My body can't handle lupron...I've now got osteopenia from past treatments on it, and am on treatment for the bone loss now. I can't handle estrogen either; it raises my blood pressure and makes me bleed profusely. I am currently on progesterone continuous bcp. However, I bled for a month straight on it, after being on it for over 3 months, stopped bleeding for only a couple of weeks and then began bleeding for another 10 days or so. That finally ceased. The specialist ran two ultrasounds and an SIS on me, and also has my post-op reports to go by. On the first ultrasound he found a cyst at 2.5cm growing already, and that was at 4 weeks post-op. Now, after this last ultrasound, I get a call saying to schedule for a lap. I called back thinking, my word, I just did a laparotomy, there's no way I'm doing another surgery, albeit a lot less invasive, just yet. They weren't going to do a consult or anything. I managed to get a consult scheduled to find out what the heck he's thinking. Has this happened to anyone? Does it sound fishy? He's a very well esteemed professional in our area, but I'm not impressed yet. Should I even consider a lap after such an invasive surgery was just performed? Any advice is greatly appreciated, Ladies. Thank you so much. I'm about at my wit's end. -- kami Next message: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: endo specialist in northern CA?"
