Re: Pain 2 months After the Lap

Sounds exactly like my situation also. Diagnosed with endo via laparascopy, but adhesions interfered with the ability to remove the endo. After 7 months of Lupron did nothing for the pain, another laparascopy to 'see what was going on', followed by a Total abdominal hysterectomy 1 week later. And 3 months after I returned to work,the pain returned. Another laparascopy to 'see what was going on', and another Laparotomy, finding adhesions and more endo. Another 2 or 3 months later - pain returned, but this time, my Dr's refused surgery and well, here I wait. I know the difference in the pain, not just it's location, but in the way it feels. I can't describe it very effectively, apparently, but I know some of the pain in my pelvis and lower abdominal area to be endo.

The flank pain, back pain, upper-,mid-and lower abdominal pain, pain in my lowest ribs (on either side) and the hip pain... I'd love to understand.

Take care! Jan
