So I'm off to see a specialist on monday to discuss my endo and what my next steps are since the first surgery didn't help me as much as I would've liked.
True, the pain is less, but it's still there. My now-former obgyn suggested that I do another surgery or try to get pregnant.
Josh and I have been contemplating having a second child. So this might be Fate telling us to get on with it. I dunno, I guess I want to wait and hear what the specialist has to say. I think I'd rather go in for another laproscopy before attempting to conceive. But again, I'll wait until Monday when I talk to this Dr.

What would be the benefit by getting pregnant? I don't understand. I had 3 ERCP's (Endoscopic Retrograde Colon-Pancreatography). Not fun. But whoo, are those some crazy drugs they fill you up with. Why are you getting an endo done? I must've missed the specifics of that post?
I had a laparoscopy done in June because of all the pain I was having. The dr. found endometriosis in a lot of my organs (ovaries, uterus, bladder and lower intestines) and removed the endo/scar tissues/adhesions. A month later the pain returned and my doc wouldn't take it seriously, even after I called her one morning sobbing hysterically in pain. She told me to see a GI. He did a CAT scan and my GI tract was normal however my ovaries were covered with cysts and one had ruptured (and I began bleeding like crazy the following day). So when I went to see my unconcerned doctor, she suggested either she cut me open again, or that I get pregnant because getting pregnant could help. So.... I'm seeing an endo specialist tomorrow to hear his opinion. Fun, huh? LOL
oh julieta, sorry to hear about all this... painful and frustrating... keep us posted on what the specialist says today.
