Hi Pollo & Pollo's hubby,

I had a bowel resection/excision of endo in end of May. I also had severe endo, stage 5, that was "everywhere" according to my surgeons. My surgery went for 5 1/4 hours and I spent 9 days in hospital. I had planned to have 4 weeks off work but ended up having 7. I was walking around in hospital (they make you!!!) and it is better for your recovery. By the time I came home I was able to shower myself and get myself in and out of bed ect... (very slowly!) I wasn't able to lift anything or do housework and i basically laid on the couch and went for small, slow walks around the yard.

Now, 3 months on, I feel good. I have no endo pain

I wish you all the best with your surgery and becoming pain free
