Anyone Had A Laprotomy?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Just recently been diagnosed with endometriosis. I have 2 large systs my consultant says they are the biggest hes seen for years and that they have been there for 5 years plus. Im booked in for a laprotomy just wondered if anyone has had this done and how is the pain after surgery?

I am just recovering from my laparotomy my cyst was 15cm, it's taken me 8 weeks so far! I was in a lot of pain for 3 weeks and had to move in with my parents to help me do simple tasks! I'm just back doing a phased return to work! So far I have had no endo pain but I am due to start clomid so expecting the pain to return quickly!
