I spoke to Dr. Sinervo at the CEC on Monday. He said given the fact I had a negative lap the last time I had surgery for endo, it's possible I might have adenomyosis, or, the doctor who did my surgery last time was not skilled in all forms of endo, and the "inflammation" that he saw was in fact, endo. The only way to know for sure (as usual) is to do surgery. If it's endo, he'll cut it all out and I'll be pain free (except I forgot to ask him if after surgery he recommends BCP's, because if so that's a problem; they exacerbate my migraines). If it's adeno, I have to make the decision on whether or not I want to have my uterus removed, which opens up a whole other can of worms!
I guess I expected to feel differently after talking to him. He was definitely very nice, and I ultimately knew I would need surgery, but it's just so frustrating not even having a definitive diagnosis at this point. The nurse from their office has left me a few messages wanting to schedule surgery, and I'm procrastinating on calling her back because I don't really know what to say yet! I also started a new job a few months ago, and I can't take any time until April anyway, so I have a little time to think.
