So I would give it until the Antibiotic is done but by around the 5th day you are not even a little better maybe go in. It takes some time for it to work but it works.. Its a strong antibiotic.

It could be from all the drugs going through you or an infection that can screw up blood work results. I am going to tell you I had horrid side effects from cipro so don't be alarmed if there are some things out of the blue and not to confuse it with endo recovery. I would look up the side effects of cipro so you can have an idea. Let me go look on my blog as I am sure I posted about this antibiotic after my surgery. The worst thing you can do is panic. Try to remain calm as the more you work yourself up the harder the healing process will be and you will be clenching your muscles and they will start to contract. Did they give you any pain meds? I can also ask around if people had any liver issues after surgery as well. Try for now relaxing, using a heating pad, drink lots of water, pain meds if you have any or anti-inflammatory.

I don't think its the endo but that is just me. I think you have an infection somewhere. When did you start the Cipro? I had 3 different bacterial infections 11 days post op and it took a while for me to feel like it was getting better. Is the pain lower pelvic where the bladder is?
