So different?
In Oct I had US for pelvic pain. The US showed two cysts. My Dr sent me for a CT-scan. The CT scan reviled what my doctor believes is endo. I have two large cysts. My GYN told me he would have to remove my left ovary, and poss. part of the right. My GYN said he would not be able to remove the cysts with a laprascope due to their size. He also told me that I would need assisnce when it comes to convincing.
We decided to seek a second opinion with a reproductive surgeon. He preformed another US in the office, he too believes it is stage IV endo. However he feels he can remove the cysts without touching my ovaries, he also wishes to remove my appendix. All of which he says can be done via larapscope.
The new doctor also said he does not see why we would have any problems conceiving once the cysts are removed. He could tell via US that I had recently ovulated. How can their opinions different so greatly?

Hi Karen. although it may seem really strange to have different opinions, it is common...as for my experience, my regular doc was "brave" enough to recognize he wasn't as experienced to perform the lap and he made a referal to another doctor, he only sugested two out of more than 100s, maybe thousands that I could choose from, he said, he knew those two were the ones with the experience to perform a succesful surgery to me and luckly for me, it was a success!
I think is just as accountants are able to manage different accounts, they all have things were they specialized at and are able to manage things better than others, although when it comes to it, all of them are able to or should be able to perform. you know? and also, it depends on the hospitals, not all hospitals have the most recent and advanced equipment, so that has something to do with it too.
I am glad you were able to find the doctor you were looking for!! good luck with the surgery, I wish you a fast recovery!!
