    Hi

    I think it would be well worth speaking to your surgeon. There might be a cancellation that you could take. I am 5 weeks post op. I had severe endometreosis and he took eveeything including the cervix. I can honestly say its the best thing that couldve happened. You have my full sympathy as life was awful for me too before the op. My last 3 periods were horrific but im not sure if its because id got myself in such a state. Easier said than done but think of it this way, worst case scenario you only have 3 left, hopefully. I really do hope it works for you and i hope the surgery and recovery go smoothly xx
