A question for those who have had endo removed via excisional surgery. I had two ops in October removing it from my bowel, kidney tube, uthrer (sp?), vagina, pouch of douglas and ovaries.

I have being getting the same stabbing pain in my left side (as I did before surgery) this was not present for the first three weeks after surgery I was actually feeling normal again !! This onset of pain coincides with my first period since the surgery. The period was as painful as before and I had the vomitting/runs/cramps all at once that I have had in the past.

To get to the question..........In your experience do you think this is just a fallout from surgery ie. the first period after surgery is always heavy/painful etc ?? or do you think that perhaps I'm one of the unlucky one's that fall into the 40% of reoccuring endo after surgery - I truly hope not !!

Im not panicking yet, I figure I'll give it another cycle or two before I'll know for sure but thought I'd get your opinion along the way.

Thanks
Cindy
