Thank you. My situation is complicated. I ended up with a severe form of nerve damage in the pelvis after my surgery but I feel I did get a couple of years free of the endometriosis. If I hadn’t gotten the nerve damage then I would have considered it successful. I wouldn’t bother with a repeat surgery except I need a spinal cord stimulator for the nerve damage but they found nodules of endometriosis on a scan and they won’t go ahead with the spinal cord stimulator unless I have them removed.
I hope you get your cover approved. It’s quite stressful getting everything done but it’s worth it. I have photos of before my surgery and the damage that was done from ablation is shocking.
