I have been recovering for almost a week now from LSH due to endo. My endo was painful and had come back quickly since I had a lapraoscopy a little over a year ago. My doc gave me three options. Lupron shots, another lapraoscopy or LSH. After researching and a second opinion I knew LSH was the right thing for me. I have been blessed with two beautiful girls and I always knew after that I would foster or adopt if I wanted more. I just recently quit my job working with emotionally unstable and underprivalged children. Some of the clientel have legitimate reasons for being commited others just really need good parents. The job turned out to be a little more than I could handle at the time so instead of going on medical leave I decided not to return. I have always felt as if I had a hormonal imbalance, as if I were girl and a 1/2. I knew I never wanted to get pregnant again and I didn't want the shots after doing the research (this site was especially helpful). I knew I didn't want to chance a series of lapraoscopies and I was going to have to face menapause at some point so I decided to have LSH done.
Everything went smoothly and I have been taking it easy for the past week. My mom kept me captive at her house so that she could care for me and the girls. She is a teacher and we crashed her spring break. I know I did the right thing and I look forward to being pain free from now on.
