I am so glad it all went well! I know you were very nervous.

I shook terribly after all my surgeries too. I'd completely forgotten about that until you mentioned it.

Thank you! Yes, I was pretty nervous, but it turned out to be not as bad as I feared. Thanks again for the encouragement.

Glad it went well and they found something. My last surgery, which was in November, they found nothing. Yet I'm still in pain. My other gyno noted the pain was all in the uterine area, which makes me think adenomyosis, but hey, what do *I* know about *MY* body? The doctor who did the surgery was all like, buck up, that means there isn't anything stopping you from getting pregnant. Yeah there is, a pile of debt!!

that he found 2 small spots of endometriosis on the left side of my cul-de-sac. I know that the extent of endometriosis rarely correlates with the degree of pain, but I really expected there to be more.

that's exactly what happened to me, too. she found to small spots, took them out. i really thought there would be more.
