Hi! Would appreciate any thoughts or insights anyone has. Thank you!

Is there anything that in hindsight you wish you knew prior to surgery? Whether about the surgery itself, aftercare, questions you wish you would’ve asked the surgeon, etc.

At what point did you feel like the surgical pain was gone/at a manageable level where it wasn’t all you were thinking about?

I had my surgery in March, my right ovary removed my fallopian tubes removed and endometrioma in my left ovary was attempted to be removed but it burst and she had to leave it in there.

And my left ovary endometrioma has doubled since March. Why???????? I thought this would have helped not made it worse! Thank you

Has anyone used a TENS unit to help relieve some of your pain? I came across a blog and she used one and it helped tremendously.

Has anyone experienced weight gain as a symptom of endo?

I can't count how many times I actually fainted today. I spent most of my day in bed with depression consuming me, but I had to be so careful every time I got up because I know I'd just fall right back onto my bed. I didn't have the strength to blow dry my hair after my shower and even showering made me short of breath and dizzy. I started bleeding lightly today, first day of my strange irregular cycle maybe? Never know if I'm just spotting, point is I'm not bleeding heavily. I've eaten exactly… read more

Has anyone had any experience using bee propolis for endometriosis? Specifically to aid in getting pregnant?
