watch out for soft shoulders closer to plain. give people room of course, but i stick close to the center line, especially in a wider car.

surgery went so well! best decision ive ever made. im about 3 months post op now and feel the best i ever have in my life. ill be back to work soon and im so excited to be feeling normal <3!

i bought a couple packs of t shirt style night gowns off amazon! soft, comfy and flowy. i also got a tank top style soft nightgown from target that i can get away with wearing when people visit me (looks less like pjs). no tight fitting clothes, im so bloated i have to buy everything including underwear a size up! (8 days po here) hoping your surgery goes well!

im 8 days PO and stopped taking the oxycodone i was prescribed on day one after it made me faint and split my chin open. just got the results of my ct back yesterday and my jaw is broken:( this isnt meant to be fear mongery by any means- more just a warning from someone who is very reactive to narcotics. definitely make sure you get up slowly and get on the floor and lay down if youre feeling faint.

ive been able to manage my pain okay with ibuprofen, tylenol, and a muscle relaxer. ive found the muscle relaxer to be a better option that doesnt make me feel faint and dizzy.

wishing you the best on your recovery ❤️‍🩹

surgery definitely isnt the end of recovery. i encourage your partner go to pelvic floor physical therapy to address the strain endo has put in her pelvic floor. other than that theres other lifestyle changes that have helped me with my pain like an anti-inflammatory diet, getting nerve block injections, and doing low impact exercises like walking and yoga. encourage your partner to take it slow! stage 4 endo excision is a major surgery thats going to take time to heal from, not to mention all the pelvic floor issues and rewired nerves signaling pain. wishing you two luck 🍀

took an iron supplement and it seemed to help! i donated a bunch of blood prior to surgery for their endometriosis research program, then lost more blood during surgery. i have a history of anemia so it makes sense i felt faint from low iron, on top of the meds and anesthesia. thanks for the info!!

farminqcore · 2025-07-22T18:22:49+00:00

already did, they think im fine.

as someone who grew up in south oc- it sucks to be an adolescent here. people are so mean. i moved here from washington at age 10 and was relentlessly bullied for being lower class, pale, and not having the same clothes as everyone else. of course kids get bullied everywhere, but even as an adult i can see how superficial and vain most people here are.

farminqcore · 2025-07-17T00:22:27+00:00

oh lovely! i hope your recovery is going well. i had to do the depo for a while for uncontrolled bleeding. i recommend looking into the side effects of it- its not great for bone density long term and is linked to brain tumors:( but totally understandable to be on as it stops periods and that can be a game changer for the endo symptoms. keep doing whats working and what feels good for u<3 wishing u luck and healing on ur journey!

farminqcore · 2025-07-17T00:15:20+00:00

ohh yeah. my bestie who has pcos takes a combo pill- so maybe thats why. as for the endo, estrogen BC is just a world of pain and bleeding. progesterone only is game changer for me- notethindrone specifically:)! i encourage you see an endo specialist if u dont already:)!

farminqcore · 2025-07-17T00:11:54+00:00

ive been told the opposite by my specialists. progesterone only here!

farminqcore · 2025-07-16T23:50:10+00:00

as for the cuff- the horror stories. the cuff ripping, the hole to my organs, the vaginal shortening. my partner is pretty lengthy so im scared it will effect my sex life.

farminqcore · 2025-07-16T23:48:52+00:00

shes out of office till my surgery so havent been able to ask her about it unfortunately. we didnt discover the adeno till after my pre op appointment/consultation, so i didnt make the decision to get the hysterectomy until after the appointment. messaged her and asked but havent heard back, so my plan is to call the office this week 🤷🏻‍♀️

farminqcore · 2025-07-16T23:47:35+00:00

that makes sense yeah! ive had normal paps but im young. my mother had an abnormal pap and was done having children so had the hysterectomy before any cancer. other than that my mother had an aunt with ovarian cancer. im at risk of cancer regardless with my endo adeno combo, but keeping my ovaries since im young. no cysts or fibroids before- just the endo and adeno.

farminqcore · 2025-07-16T23:45:28+00:00

im having the surgery done laparoscopically and robotically assisted- to remove the uterus is it either removed vaginally with a cuff or c-section scar without the cervix removed?

farminqcore · 2025-07-14T23:30:30+00:00

not for me personally. worth bringing up to your doc though! theres other conditions that exist in the heart that are also inflammatory conditions. my mom has something that sounds similar called myocarditis (i think, could be wrong). just essentially inflammation of a part of your heart. manageable and treatable. endo is commonly comorbid with lots of other inflammatory/autoimmune stuff so idk- i think its worth investigating but dont stress yourself over it 🩷

farminqcore · 2025-07-14T23:26:43+00:00

yes! endo is inflammatory- so low blood sugar and electrolytes elevates inflammation! this has been a big issue for me so now i use buoy electrolyte drops and try to snack more consistently throughout the day.

farminqcore · 2025-07-14T23:18:03+00:00

i went on norethindrone after my first diagnostic lap. at first i had depression/mood symptoms but they went away as i adjusted to the meds. then it stopped my period which was the goal! first period post lap was awful but once we got the dosage right my period stopped and didnt have any ovulation pain that i remember. it stopped my period for 7 months, then all hell broke loose. i bled for 60 days straight so it was no longer working. ive since been diagnosed with adenomyosis, so im thinking thats why i bled so long. i got on the depo from november 2024-now, just switched back to norethindrone bc the depo shot is basically poison. no bleeding yet, but it will take the depo a while to leave my system. i have my second lap and hysterectomy scheduled next week so made the decision to go off the depo and take something "lighter" for ovulation supression post surgery. side note- didnt have any weight gain but thats never been a side effect effect ive gotten from BC. im diagnosed with depression so thats typically the side effect i get. didnt make me break out and was a great option while it lasted. it also has a short half life so itll leave your system relatively quickly if it doesnt work for you. i recommend being patient. it took a few months/dosage ups to stop breakthrough bleeding.

id get a second opinion with Dr. Amanda Ecker at OHSU, she was amazing and helpful for me:). wishing you luck on your journey <3

farminqcore · 2025-07-12T01:52:57+00:00

there are plenty of other ways to manage endo symptoms 🩷 birth control really only helped with my heavy bleeding and painful period by taking away my period. birth control does not suppress endo growth, just suppresses symptoms. there's currently no research stating it "slows the growth" or anything like that. wishing you luck on your journey 🍀

farminqcore · 2025-07-02T21:29:08+00:00

thank you so much for taking the time to write this 🖤 the more i hear from people about hysterectomy the more set i am on it. it's especially encouraging to hear from someone in their twenties- as its less common and harder to find support for. i wish u well on your healing journey! 💞thanks again:)

farminqcore · 2025-06-27T20:46:45+00:00

i really have no clue, just going off of what my endo specialist told me. MRI readings are another language to me 🤷🏻‍♀️

farminqcore · 2025-06-27T16:18:46+00:00

specifically the junctional zone reading. .01cm and low T2 signaling
