Lap endometriosis

[Tylertwin]

I just had my lap surgery today, march 19, diagnostic, it confirmed I have endometriosis. Two adhesions on my ovaries were removed, the nurse told me the stage when I woke up but I was still out of it, the dr spoke with my husband but did not tell him the stage, I am having the normal pains,neck, shoulder and bak pain, that I expected, I wasn't expecting the bleeding afterwards, it has gotten heavier since I got home, is that normal? And I'm having severe heartburn,  and for not having eaten in 20 hours I still have zero appetite, and the throat pain is triple what they said, I feel like I have strep, tonsillitis and any other type of sore throat at the same time, any tips for helping this, so far it's the worse pain I''me having

Totally understand that is why I do this because I was completely lost and alone for years. If you look at my profile my blog details are on there and if you go to my blog and click on the page called "the faces of Endo" you will realize there are a lot of us out here :)

Gravol in canada is an anti nausea over the counter me I can only take pain killers using that or I will feel like crap and really sick.

I also wrote in my journal on my profile about one progesterone pill I was on called visanne I too am a smoker and I am 36 however I smoke while I am on the bcp and have for 8 yrs. it scares me but I guess I don't worry too much because I have been on it so long because it helps.

The pain after a week should subside and I would just make sure the belly button incision doesn't get infected. Within 24 hours the incision are closed so it can be cleaned with water maybe spray some peroxide on it.

I go back to see my dr on April 9, he wanted to discuss different meds to start me on to prevent further growths, progesterone based because I am a smoker, I'm still having really bad heartburn, and back pain, and today really bad pain in my calves, which i wasn't expecting, the pain meds give me severe stomach aches, the heating pads help the back pain. I changed my bandages today, but know if I am supposed to be cleaning the incisions from the dried blood, the belly button incision is the painful one, I've never heard of grovol, is that the name brand, I've managed to eat some, light stuff, in hopes it would with my stomach aches. Not sure if I am feeling much better today, hoping if I can get some sleep tonight that might help, I slept horrible last and kept waking up. Thank you so much, I've really felt alone going through this.

All that pain is normal as well as the bleeding. I actually passed a book sized blood clot the day after my surgery. I bled a lot but it eased up after about a week. Were you told to go on any continuous BCP or offered something to suppress your periods? I went on that right after my surgery that might be why as well. Shoulder and throat pain are normal. Make sure you are hydrated and drink lots of water even popsicles to help your throat.

How are you feeling today any better? did they give you pain meds? If yes then it might help to take gravol with them they sometimes make you feel really sick and nauseated
