Hasina, I completely understand your frustration. I've had two laps now, a year apart. The doctor that did the first insisted there was no way I could have any endo to remove only a year after the first surgery. The new doc went in and found that I was full of it, including an orange sized pocket of it in my hip. I was both devastated and excited. I couldn't understand how I could have progressed that quickly, but at the same time I was excited that I had someone to do something about it. Two months later the pain was back and it has been getting steadily worse. I wish there was some way to tell you how quickly it will spread for you, but it certainly depends on the individual. I sit here almost every day feeling this pain and wonder the same thing you do. What does my future hold, what kind of decisions am I going to have to make about my body? It can be so overwhealming. It got to be so hard to deal with that I recently started to see a therapist. She told me no matter what I do I have to recognize my loss and stop worrying about the future because it is beyond my control and I need to take it as it comes. Easier said than done, I know. It has helped though to have someone completely impartial talk me through it and calm me down. So, I am sorry I can't give you any brilliant advice. I just wanted to let you know I understand.
