endometriosis surgery recovery time and pain?
I had one done the summer of 2004, I honestly don't recall alot about it, I'm sure the first 3-4 days were the worst. I don't remember if I slowly got better or felt alot better after those few days, kwim? I just remember I wanted it done before I started looking for a job and started one a month afterwards.
These symptoms are also a ton worse, I don't know if that factors in on recovery-how much is done.
Our obstacles are that we don't have anyone to watch the boys, it will have to at least be done on a Friday. DH will be back at work on Mon. and the boys back in pre-school.
My cramps and mood swings are awful. AF has not even started yet, these cramps have been the worst ever, since last Thur evening.
I can't deal with this anymore and want the surgery asap. My appt w/ OB/GYN is next week, the nurse said I could probably have it done the following week.
DH is hesitant. I told him if I've suffered thru these horrendous, debilitating cramps since Thur. evening, (& still having them) I think I (we) can handle the recovery.
The mood-swings and ultra-sensitivity starts before the cramps, they take out 10 days of a month for me. I think if I have another month like this I will jump off a very tall building! Not really, but the mood swings sure make me feel like it.
TIA!!
