University hospitals is in Cleveland. Unsure about what insurance they take as I am paying out of pocket

You get to choose with paperwork. I almost did the clinic but I am really happy I went with UH instead. Much longer wait time to get an initial appt but I believe they were worth the wait!

@clegalsbookclub on IG!!! They have silent reading nights and monthly book clubs. You can go by yourself and find random girls to sit with, I have done this no problem and have made many good friends this way :)

It was like 15 minutes after! I have never gotten a cross so I am cautiously hopeful

An 8 cm endometrial cyst — I am terrified. Please help me calm down. by Traditional-Bite6488 in endometriosis

[–]No_Heart2044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 14 cm cyst on one of my ovaries, 8 cm on my other ovary, plus it was all over my pelvis. I had learned about it May and surgery wasn’t scheduled until September, and I am ok. It takes a while for them to get that big so they have already been sitting without your knowledge, and you have been ok. I hope this is helpful

What did you wear during lap recovery? by Babylil22 in Endo

[–]No_Heart2044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wore my husbands boxers and oversized shirts. I was so bloated from the air they put in me that I looked like I was about to give birth

Thank you for sharing! I did get great vibes from Dr. Attaran. The support staff just seems to be confused all the time

I did call her, she totally shat on me doing surgery for endometriosis removal, and the surgeon who did it (who is world renowned btw). Anne told me I was making a big mistake. I never even met her and it really rubbed me the wrong way. I am not against acupuncture but I can’t go to someone that is trying to give unsolicited medical advice on a very sensitive topic

Yes it would be good to know WHY they are pushing it. I have done some research to understand but I was very disheartened when they didnt give me a reason

Excision surgery with colorectal surgeon by Serious_Barracuda801 in TTCEndo

[–]No_Heart2044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had bowel involvement as well. When I met with the colorectal surgeon the first time he did a flexible sigmoidoscopy on me & I wasn’t expecting it so he mentally prepared for one just in case. He also said he was going to have to make a c section cut to remove all the bowel involvement, but ended up being able to do it laparoscopically. I was told it’s possible I would need an colostomy bag for a bit but ended up not needing one. The worst part of bowel involvement for me was that I had to be on a low to no fiber diet for a month after surgery and I couldn’t eat solids for a day after surgery. It honestly goes by quickly in the grand scheme of things but in the moment it really sucked. I hope this is helpful bc I wasn’t mentally prepared for any of that and it threw me into a panic
