4 bikini cuts, a hyst and endometriosis would certainly make you a
candidate for adhesions. Do you still have your ovaries? do you know
what stage your endo was/ is ? They have 4 stages to the disease and the
worse it is the more likely you may have adhesions. Endo is a devil and
adhesions on top of it would sure make you very cranky! Have you ever
gone through your operative reports? It may mention that one of your
surgeons encountered adhesions but may not have mentioned it to you.
Adhesion formation is your body trying to heal itself and lots of docs
believe they won't cause problems. Trying to get someone to believe you
may have adhesions that are causing pain.....What do the docs theorise
this fatty mass is ?
Sorry to address your questions with so many other questions. Nope,
you're not crazy either and you are not alone.
Please email me or post again if I can be of any assistance.
Love,
Dawn
