I am seeing a radiologist because at my last lap the doctor mentioned there was alot of vascular congestion. There was a recent study done involving Pelvic congestion syndrome done at a hospital local to me as well as John Hopkins. I am seeing the particular radiologist who was part of the study. It is likened to varicose veins in the pelvis. They did biopsy the cells and they were indeed endometrium cells. Thank you very much for taking the time to respond.
