I went into surgury on Thurs at 11:40 am It took a little over two hours to remove a large cyst, drill both my ovaries,and remove the scar tissue the cysts popping had caused. The good new is no endometriosis. The consant pain was from the scar tissue that had built up attatching my colon to my abdominal wall. My old Dr told me that when the cyst pop or rupsured it was obsorbed(sp) by my body. Not exactly true. My new Dr said they could hopefully get me on some meds to slow the production of the cysts. >The actual Laparoscopy was not terrible.

They think my endometrisis has reoccured and that PCOS is probable. I have all sorts of pain and side effects. I am booked in for a laparoscopy in 4 weeks and am considering ovarian drilling as well but have been advised to research. I am trying to get pregnant and am scared that if I don't have this now my chances could be down the drain with all the existing problems already being there. Can you shed some light on you symptoms, what was done and if you are trying to conceive etc. Also anyone else who may read this. I am a bit nervous about such a big decision. Another consideration is clomid or metformin but metformin makes me really ill. thanks Angela
