Yikes! April Fool's Day Surgery and question
Great advise ladies! Thanks. Yes, I have endometriosis. I have a mass of it on my colon so I will have a bowel resection with the hyst/BSO, that is why I thought I'd need more then the two and a half hours that were reserved for me in the OR. The urolgist is looking for bladder endo, but she will mainly do a hydrodistention of my bladder to help with my intersitual cystitis. She said that they stretch your bladder to twice it's size, and this brings relief. I guess that doesn't take much time. Thanks for all the support
