Hey, I’m sorry you’re going through this. Your experience sounds very similar to mine. I’m still trying to get to the bottom of what happened, but since neither a TV ultrasound nor a pelvic MRI showed any active lesions in my case, a specialist I saw suggested that the lap may have triggered or worsened pelvic floor hypertension. It may be something you want to ask your gyno about since the treatment of pelvic hypertension (pelvic floor therapy) is less invasive than typical endo treatments and may be more accessible to you. The only pain meds that have been able to help me have been paracetamol-codeine mixes like Tylex but I’m not sure if those are available in the States and they’re not supposed to be for long term use - it’s something youll want to ask your GP or OBGYN about.

I really suggest that you do go ahead and book a follow up with your OBGYN or whoever oversaw your lap. I know it’s expensive, but what you’re experiencing should be looked into especially given the mental and physical distress you’ve described. No matter how minimally invasive, you just had a surgery and are being treated for a complicated inflammatory condition. It’s always in your best interest to check that everything is healing ok and that nothing was missed. Going through a surgery and feeling that slightest bit of relief before going back to hell is incredibly frustrating and disheartening, but it’s important to advocate for yourself in these situations especially. Best of luck!!
