I had my surgery with the CEC in December 07', I did not have any relief
from my pain, they even took my appendix out to make sure it didn't get
aggrivated from all the pain on the right side. I don't blame them for
it not helping, I just think I'm one of those pain in the ass cases of
endo. They did the best they could and they were so nice. The only
thing that is making me never go to them again is the hospital they use,
I have had nothing but trouble with them, and still right now I am still
dealing with their stupidity. I feel bad that I have to say that I will
never go back when it's not even because of the CEC themselves. It is
100% the hospital that I will not and cannot deal with ever again, it's
been hell non-stop with them. I wish the CEC knew that the hospital
they use is run by a bunch of idiots and that it is hurting them in the
long run. But, maybe it's just bad luck on my part. But, the CEC is
great.
