I had an endometrioma removed a year ago- felt a slow return of pain but manageable. For the past 4 months everything changed dramatically and doctors can’t figure it out.

My abdominal MRI showed endo exactly where my surgeon last summer found it- on the posterior cul de sac and new to me, there’s an almond size 11x15mm collection of blood or fluid on my right adnexa ovary- assuming it is either residual damage from the endometrioma excision or, regrowing a new endometrioma in the same spot. Does anyone else know if reoccurrence of endometriomas are common 1 year after surgery and also in the same spot as the last one?

Got my bloodwork back no thyroid, B-12 deficiency, anemia or other abnormalities in bloodwork. Still waiting for abdominal MRI. Cervical MRI showed “chronic spondylitic findings” but no explanation of what that really means other than my doctor does not think that’s the sole source of my pain as my pain has been worsening and is severe. I think it’s possible to have thoracic endo but we will see.
