I know I am lucky that I have been diagnosed at a time where there are women practitioners who are treating women with the latest innovations. I have read such horrors stories of constant surgery and hormonal treatments with terrible side effects.Zenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16373747863822737468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2433750605806105609.post-18728136431148620042016-12-31T01:56:58.329+11:002016-12-31T01:56:58.329+11:00As is typical of many 'women's ailments...As is typical of many 'women's ailments' endometriosis is often wrongly trivialised. Drs will say it takes 3 weeks to recover from lap surgery but it is more like 3 months at least! Make that 6 months. Endometriosis has serious implications so be gentle on yourself and your body. There is so much more knowledge and awareness now than when I was diagnosed many years ago so you have that in your favour. Wishing you a successful recovery.

I've had one surgical procedure to remove some of the tissue, but I'm pretty sure it needs done again.
