Re: Hi..From: M (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sun Apr 29 17:32:55 2007
Hi I agree with Michelle. I think its a little strange that you were not given a diagnosis of endo at the time of surgery. I had a laparotomy in Jan 07 to remove an 11cm endometriomas and left ovary and was diagnosed with endo. I was surprised that my doc didn't remove the endo. I was told that it was too much and too spread. It kind of irritated me, but I'm guessing that she just wasn't able to handle those delicate areas. I also have another endometriomas growing back again which makes me wonder iif the first was thoroughly removed or if they are just grwing fast. I would agree you should def find a specialist for endo. That way you are not wasting time and going through surgery after surgery with no relief. Hopefully if you can find a specialist you will be able to have longer lasting pain relief. I know its hard to be in pain and not worry, but I def think that stress/worry makes it worse. Hope you find some relief soon. Hang in there! Melissa At Sun, 29 Apr 2007, anonymous wrote: > >Hi, >I am new to this forum.
