The pain going down leg sounds like a pinched nerve: try a >chiropractor for that one (a good one that does not do drastic cracking >and does not milk you for repeat visits). Thanks Cathy for your response. Did you have Endometriosis? I will take your advise into consideration. I also have migranes a lot and it coudn't hurt to have a Chiroprator do some work on me. I also felt great right after my surgery. I am not saying you won't continue to feel great, I hope you do. I dread having to have another surgery to remove adhesions or more endo. I just want to feel normal again. I felt so good after my surgery I thought I would stay that way. I feel ok right now it's just the pain on my right side bloating and gas at night before I go to bed. I will start doing aerobics and hopefully it will help also. Thanks again and good luck on your recovery. Donna
