Thnks for the recommendation BelleH.
Caution - small world we both live in Northampton. Likewise what I ve said to Stork if you ever want to meet up just let me know. In terms of endometriosis symptoms, mine was severe abdominal pain (best way can describe is being thrown on thick gravel pavement and been dragged across - like a constant grazing or burning sensation) particularly around AF but in the lead up to surgery it was bad nearly all through month. I did have a very large cyst on my left ovary tho which twisted, so hopefully your case will be just that you have endo in name only, or if absolutely necessary adhesions but no pain . Have you had the ultra sound to see where it might be lurking? I know that no all cysts are picked up by internal scan, some people for instance have it lurking behind the pelvic cavity so wouldn't be seen, pouch of douglas is a common place, not that I know quite where that is. Hopefully for you its just a case of ruling it out so you know it wont have an impact on fertility. I have quite a few friends that have endo, and they are varied in their response to symptoms from nothing causing any bother to agonising pain. Some people describe weakness, pins or needles or pain in the tops of thighs, heavy periods, pain during intercourse . Hopefully if you do have it, they can sort out any cyst quickly and then you ll be getting pregnant so it will put it in dormancy. That certainly has worked for me. PM me though if you want to ask more specific questions, quite happy to answer them. Also, who is your Consultant, because my former Obstetric Consultant is also one of the endo specialists at Northampton General, Mr Von Widekind.
Stork - thanks. Must contact my previous embryologists about if they still use Cryos. I really want to try for a full sibling for Mabel, but I guess if they are not screening for Zika, what else might they not be screening for? The relaxed attitude on family numbers is a bit worrying too, but I would probably risk it if my clinic still uses them just because I'm fixated on wanting a baby who might look like my beloved daughter. I guess if clinic don't, then I might find it tricky to find both a clinic who use Cryos and 1 that will treat low ovarian reserve!! Better get on the case with that. Realising that there are definitely at least 3 of us in close proximity it might be nice to meet as a little local support group. No pressure tho, maybe send a pm soon. I would love to do a mums and tots group tho in time with a bigger group too, when we have our babies. Positive thinking, it will happen.
Thanks Pickle for your thoughts - They do still have availability of my donor boy on the website, but must just contact them about reserving if my clinic do still use Cryos. If not, I ll have to look at ESB, is that also based in Denmark?
Was supposed to be seeing my Consultant today to discuss what happened and future plans and he went and cancelled, so upset, and was also so nervous so have got to do the same again next Thursday now. Also wanted to pick his brains about recurrence of endo as well, this guy could well be my regular go to Dr for both issues.
