I'm having surgery

Posted Thursday, October 29, 2009 10:00 PM

I went to my doctor today for the pain that I've been having in my side. She did an ultrasound and it turned out completely normal. Plus my bloodwork was all normal. She said "in fact, you're TOO normal." Haha. Anyway, two things that a u/s can't see are endometriosis and a blocked tube. So next Wednesday I will be getting a laparascopy done so she can look. If there is endometriosis, she will try to burn it off. She will also put dye through my tubes and if they are blocked, she will clear them out. She said a lot of people get pregnant right away after the procedure, so I'm hoping for a good result.

So, on the agenda for this weekend: tomorrow morning I am getting my pre-op stuff done. Then we are going to Adam's mom's house. Then Saturday we will tell my parents about all of this. So far we haven't told them we are TTC or anything, but I need to let them know about the surgery and I need to find out more about my mom's infertility and endometriosis. That should be a super fun conversation...NOT. 

I know one thing for sure: my husband is amazing. I don't know how I would get through any of this without him.

{{hugs}}  I pray that the lap does the trick for you!  I have heard of quite a few women being able to get pregnant fairly quickly after having it done, so I hope that is the case for you as well.

A friend was TTC for 6 years without any luck. Finally her doctor did a surgery (not sure exactly what it was) and she was pg in a month. It worked for her. GL to you!!!!

My mom had blocked tubes and she was pregnant within 3 months of having them cleared.  She had endometriosis.  Good luck.  Have you had really painful periods with a lot of bleeding?  That's usually a huge indicator of endo.

re: I'm having surgery

edmo, no I haven't had much pain up until about 3 weeks ago. However, my doctor said that it could have been developing for a while now but birth control could have masked the symptoms. My mom had endometriosis so there is more of a chance that I have it.
