Laparoscopy for suspected endo tomorrow

Hi Everyone,

I have my laparoscopy for suspected endometriosis tomorrow. I am absolutely terrified they won’t find any endo. I’ve been waiting three years for my appointment and saw countless doctors before being offered a space on the waiting list. I had an ultrasound two years ago which was normal. I have the following symptoms:

  1. Very heavy bleeding
  2. Clots in period blood
  3. 10-day periods every 21 days naturally
  4. 7 months on mirena with continued bleeding
  5. Irregular bleeding
  6. Iron deficiency when not on birth control
  7. Sharp twisting/tugging pain on right side of abdomen
  8. Severe Cramps in abdomen
  9. Fatigue
  10. Weak/sore legs
  11. Night sweats
  12. Migraines
  13. Constipation
  14. Diarrhoea
  15. Bloating
  16. Wind
  17. Pain during sex at certain times of the month

I genuinely don’t know what to do if they don’t find endo. I have no idea what the next steps are. I’ll be mortified that I’ve made such a fuss for no reason. What if it’s all in my head.

Has anyone else experienced this feeling?
