Hey ladies. Just wanted to let ya'll know that I am back. Everything went smoothly. I am sore and the gas has gone up into my shoulders and hurts like heck but I'm doing ok. My Dr. Said they he did find some endometriosis on both ovaries. I didn't talk to him but DH did and so did my mom. He said everything is good to go now and we can start ttc again in 2 months. He said he killed the endometriosis whatever that means. Anyway. I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm doing fine and back home. I am going to head to bed and get some rest. I hope you ladies all have a wonderful weekend.


UPDATE:
I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately. I am still not feeling all that great. The gas from that procedure is killing me. I will be fine one minute and the next I am on the floor in a ball trying to catch my breath from the pain. I am at work this morning trying to make it through the day. I haven't had any pain in my shoulder this morning but I am sore in my stomach which is new because I haven't been the last couple of days. I hope that they got the problem fixed because I don't ever want to have to go through that again. The D&C was no trouble at all. I only spotted for a couple hours after the procedure and that was it. I had no cramping or anything. The gas from the laparascopy is what hurt like heck. HOpefully that is gone now and I will not be having any more episodes. That is by far the worst pain that I have ever felt. (yes worse than labor pains.) ANyway. i will gradually get back on here as I feel up to it. I am just tired and kind of weak. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I have my follow-up appt next Friday and the dr will show me the pics that he took and I will get a chance to ask him some questions. DH will also have his SA done next week as well. Thanks for all the prayers and comments. I love you ladies.

Thanks ladies for all the support. The valium worked ok I guess. I was kind of upset this morning because the hospital didn't fax my blood work and chest x-ray results to the surgery center so if I didn't have connections, i would have had to have done all that crap over again and pay for it. I didn't have to pay at the hospital I work at for any of it because what insurance doesn't pay, the hospital writes off as employee discount. Anwyay. I got that taken care of and when they did my vitals the first time they were 179/98. The second time it was down to 153/102 and then the last time it had gone down to 138/79. The dr gave me 800 mg motrin and darvocet. I have felt sick a couple of times but I have been resting alot. I was asleep when it was time to take my medicine again and it wore off and my shoulder started to kill me. The only other time I have ever been in that much pain was when I was in labor. It still hurts but it's not as bad at the moment. Anyway. Just wanted to update. I think I am going to go back to sleep now. Thanks for all the well wishes ladies. I will get back on when I fell up to it.

Did you have a laparsocpy (sp?) hun? I had one of those and my shoulder hurt like hell for a couple of days after. he doctor said it was because of the gas, apparently they lay you at an angle during theatre (sort of like feet higher than your head) and thats what causes the gas to get there

I am glad you made it through ok but sad about the endo. My chest hurt a LOT after my lap and I found by drinking a lot of soda and burping, it got better. I don't know if it really helped or if it was psychological...but I have heard gas-x works too.

Good luck!!

Yes I had the Laparascopy and the D&C. I am a little sore from the incisions but most of the pain comes from my right shoulder and my right side. Yesterday it was soooo bad that it had me in tears. Everytime I took a breath it hurt that much more. It's better today but still hurts quite a bit. I hope that it will go away soon. Yesterday when my shoulder was hurting was probably the worst pain that I have ever been in besides labor and it was pretty darn close to that.
