Laparoscopic surgery certainly is one way to evaluate your pain. It
is important that the surgeon doing that evaluation is comfortable in
dealing with and treating this pain at the time of that laparoscopy
and thereafter. Endometriosis, adhesive disease and other sources
can and should be treated laparoscopically but ongoing care for pain
should be available and is best done by a specialist in this area.
Check it out thoroughly.
