It's ba-ack...
Seeing as I never really had symptoms of endometriosis before my surgery, I have been very (unpleasantly) surprised to be experiencing them after my surgery. A couple of months ago I was in so much pain I had to lie down on the floor at work for 30 minutes or so. I was nauseated, hyperventilating, and wondering if I needed to go to the emergency room. Thankfully, the pain went away quickly enough. That has only happened to me once before, 11 years ago. I did go to the emergency room that time. For the past two days, I have been experiencing major pain in my lower back and I had cramping that actually woke me up at 5:00 in the morning the other day - experiences I've never had before. So, I think it's safe to say that the endometriosis is back, a mere 8 months after my surgery that was supposed to be "good" for at least a couple of years. This week I'll see a new doctor (my 6th on this infertility journey) and I hope to get some answers.

ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry! Hopefully this next doctor can help get rid of it, at least for longer than a few months...
