Brandi,
Did the Dr. tell you just how severe your endo is? I think there are four
classes, with class 4 being severe endo.
I had a TAH/LSO in 2001, and I had only minimal endo. There was no need for
her to remove all the organs that she did. She also lysed adhesions and
placed Interceed, an adhesion barrier, which didn't work.
Brandy, I am not a medical professional, but I am an adhesions sufferer, and
more surgery will most likely make the adhesion problem worse. Many Drs.
won't tell you that.
So many Drs. don't believe us when we tell them we have pain. Then they want
to do surgery and no matter what you ask them not to do, once you sign a
surgical consent form, they have the right to remove whatever they see fit
to remove, as you are under anesthesia and unable to stop them.
Millie.
