I had a surgery for endometriosis in 2007 but the Doctors couldn't remove it out. They said it is like a watery matter but hard that is attached to the uterus &  after they opened my uterus they found out it is Adenomyosis. They closed it back without removing. It's a bit diff from Endometeriosis but I guess it is the same family. I am 34yrs old with NO kids & not married as well. When ever I have my cycle, I always take Anaprox/Naproxen or Ibuprofen almost 800-1000mg a day to get a relief. I'm going to school full time & have no insurance. And once in a while after my cycle is over, I have a sever pain in the incision area and right in the lower back. I don't wanna do hysterectomy b/c I want to have a child in the future. When? God knows. But what should I do? Should I keep on taking these analgesics or...? Pls  I need advice. I can't take the pain anymore.

Ten days is still a little bit of time.  I was in pain weeks after the surgery.  It's major surgery and you had two of them!  My c-section was way worse than the laparatomy to remove the cyst though.  Don't worry, give yourself lots of rest and don't do things you're not supposed to even if you think you can.  Give it another couple of weeks, but do tell your doctor any concerns and symptoms you have.  That's what they're there for.  Congratulations on your new baby.  Good luck.
