Cindy,

It sounds to me like your doctor does a crappy job at laps or you would have at least a couple years of pain relief. That doc must be making a fortune off of making people keep coming back for multiple surgeries! Regular OB's do not know what the heck they are doing when it comes to laparscopy. They are not qualified or trained to remove endo from the bowels, bladder, kidneys... and can make the mess in our abdomens even worse.

I think if you had a good excision surgery with a specialist, you would see some relief. All those laps you are having cannot be good for your body either and are probably making a lot of scar tissue build up as well. A lot of women make the mistake of staying with the same doctor, even though that doctor is not really helping them much and things get worse in that time period. You really need to find someone else at this point who can offer you some better options.

I know searching for a new doc is frustrating and exhausting, trust me, I've done it a million times...but you can't keep wasting your time and money on someone who is not helping you. Even with a hysterectomy, endo can grow back and I for sure would not let that same doctor keep cutting on me! A hysterectomy only helps if you have Adenomyosis (endo in the uterine muscle) Also, make sure you are not taking any estrogen...birth control pills with estrogen stimulate the endo to keep growing. Please get an opinion from a specialist and don't let that doc do any more surgeries on you. Another doctor could probably offer you more hope.

Feel better & take care...
