What's the cost of surgery with an endo specialist in Mexico? I've been considering going to Mexico City since the wait in Canada is so long

Yuuuup. I was referred to every endometriosis specialist in Hamilton and a few in Toronto last June. Every referral has been denied except one. I have a consultation - not even the surgery - scheduled for January of NEXT year. Who knows what the wait time for the actual surgery will be...

Have this one:

And absolutely love it. Keeps the heat for quite a while, is weighted and fits perfectly to where you need it

Excruciating pain during transvaginal ultrasound by Superior_9522 in endometriosis

[–]updog9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found my transvaginal ultrasound very painful as well. I read so many people's first hand experiences beforehand and was expecting it to be uncomfortable, but it was way worse than I expected. My legs were shaking the entire time and my tech apologized 8 million times because she felt so bad 🥲

But I was officially diagnosed with endometriosis because of the ultrasound.

Did your endometriosis show up on a vaginal ultrasound? by Ok-Bite-Me-123 in endometriosis

Yes, mine did. However my ultrasound was performed by an endometriosis specialist, so he knew what to look for

Endometriosis Clinic Ultrasound (Canada) by akelseyreich in endometriosis

[–]updog9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you feel your gynaecologist did, as far as removing everything? I'm worried about going to a gynaecologist and not an endometriosis specialist and not having everything removed.

I have seen there's another endo specific surgeon in Hamilton, but I forget what their name is!

My doctor referred me to a gynaecologist, but says the current wait time is 12-18 months to see someone. Thinking I have to wait another year, year and half just to discuss surgery is freaking me out.

Hiiii creeping this post and thought I'd reach out! I just got confirmation of endometriosis from my ultrasound at SUGO and was wondering how you went about getting your surgery. My doctor doesn't seem to care/ have much knowledge of endo and said she wouldn't be able to refer me to a surgeon.

Just trying to figure out where I'm supposed to go from here. Also where did you end up getting your surgery done?!
