More Endo Questions-Dr. Shanahan

I really appreciate the fast responses I get on this forum. A lifesaver for me and my impatience to know!

I decided to go ahead with the lap to diagnose the endo since I need to know if this is what I have before jumping into another pregnancy. As I have been reading and researching endo, I have a few more questions.

1. Because of my bowel and bladder symptoms I am worried about my dr.'s competency in performing laser on these areas. Should they laser these areas?

2. I have also found research literature that states excision is superior to laser. I really don't want to be a repeat lap case if avoidable.

3. Have tricyclic antidepressants been used with any success in endo. My pain is of the burning nerve type and I wonder if this could help? (I am an RN specializing in cancer pain management).

Thanks again.
