After laparoscopy keyhole surgery painful coccydenia what should I do?

Posted , 4 users are following.

hi all, having lower back pain after my keyhole laparoscopy surgery since January. just last week all of sudden pain gone worsened. I went to my GP she noticed inflammation of lymphnodes in Groin and surrounding areas I.e pelvis, tailbone, thigh. My GP is very helpful as she was unsure what it was but she mentioned inflammation is the sign of infection somewhere in those area ; therefore she gave me two different antibiotics. After six days pain is still there in between I been to see my gynec consultant at Northwick park Hospital who done my surgery but he didn't seem helpful and discharged me. I donno what to do?

    I am so sorry you are going through this. i do not really have advice on what to do other than to continue to be persistent and be an advocate for yourself. you know something is not right, and hound your doctors until someone listens and does something to give you answers. stay strong, us women with these issues are overlooked or not taken seriously. if need be, seek a second opinion. your new doctor can get your records and may help gain insight on what is truly going on.

      thank you for your reply. I knew something isn't right since my opp. I had previous cesarean, abortion, laparoscopy but this time it was one of the bad experience wish it was nightmare unfortunately it was a reality . physically and mentally it effecting me no matter how many times I tried to divert my mind. it effecting even more when my consultant said last week at outpatient appointment that he only removed cyst, old adhesions, and there isn't he thinks anything wrong and discharged me.

      I'm going to see my GP if she can referrar to have full MRI scan to see what's going on inside.

    I think you need to go back to your GP and ask for a MRI scan to be done to find out exactly what the problem is so it can be treated probably. Hope you're feeling better soon.
