Apolohies in advance for lack of paragraphs, like everyone else my return button isn’t working. I have had pain and spotting during ovulation for a few years now, previous investigations came back as ‘not cancer’ and a bit of a shrug. This year it got worse, and i was diagnosed with a small (2.5 cm) cyst. I also have a small fibroid, but that’s been there years, it’s calcified and just kind of chills out not bothering anyone (not since i had the mirena for heavy periods anyway). The consultant i saw said she suspected endo and that my left ovary (which hurts the most, with the cyst) is possibly stuck to something, maybe my bladder. I have a laparoscopy next month and she asked me to consent to oophorectomy also if necessary, which i have because it fucking KNACKS every month when i ovulate, and i get bloated and gassy. Has anyone else had similar? What can i expect? How long did it take you to recover and do you feel a benefit from it? Please tell me amazing stories of feeling like a new woman. I’ve never had surgery before and i’m feeling a bit wah wah about it.
