Hey Ladies,

So I’m onto day 4 of recovery now and I’m doing well. Just thought I’d give you an update of my procedure and what to expect for Mez Moz.

Had surgery on Thursday, I was first cab off the rank for the day which was great. Got to the hospital at 7:30am and I was on the operating table within an hour. Woke up an hour and a half later in a fair bit of pain only to be put back to sleep with more morphine, ahhhh my friend. Spent most of the day being woken up by nurses wanting to check on my wounds then drifting off back to sleep. They wouldn’t let me go home till I peed which too a while but by 4:30pm I was safely home in my bed.

I ended up with 3 incisions, they started with 2 but needed to do the third. My results: After me being very afraid that they were going to find lots of endo, they only found 3 small areas of it all of which they have now burnt off, none of which are believed to have been causing me any fertility issues, only pain. They then did the D&C (Dilation & Curette) and whilst only my right tube took the dye they are pretty sure that both my tubes aren’t blocked as there was no scar tissue. They said that sometimes your body just favours one of your ovaries rather than the other, it’s not to say that the other one doesn’t work its just that one works more often than the other. Lastly they decided to do golf balling (ovarian drilling) which they discussed with me prior to surgery. They said that they don’t know why it works but it is so effective that I may not need to take clomid anymore which would be fabulous. The drilling works for 6 months.

Hey Mez Moz, hope this info helps you out. Sorry to head about AF but at least this way you will know what is going on now. Yeah I didn’t think that I would get any results on the day as I have got friends that have had the procedure and they didn’t get their results on the same day but both of my surgeons came and spoke to me after my operation and I also asked my Nurses what went on and they were really good about giving me all the information. I have pictures to take to my gyno too. So I am having a follow up with my gyno on Feb 5th because they took some biopsy’s and I need to get the results from them but most of the other stuff I already know which is great cos otherwise I would spend the next 3 weeks stressing rather than relaxing. Oh yeah and I was also given 10 days off rather than the week that I was recommended originally cos they did more than they planned. Just thought I’d warn you, every time I think I’m ok hubby reminds me how much I can’t yet do on me own. He has just been wonderful, bought me flowers on op day, been making me dinner every night, cleaned the house (even mopped) on the weekend. Hey and I totally know what you mean about being excited for the surgery I was totally the same at least then you will have some answers. Good luck with it and please let me know how you go.

Hope everyone else is going well.
