As part of my care with the Endometriosis team, I underwent a complex surgery to treat deep infiltrating, stage 4 endometriosis. My aspirations were to reduce pain and improve fertility following miscarriage.
While I still experience challenges related to living with endometriosis, there is no doubt that the expert surgical care received was what led to the natural pregnancy and live birth of my son and reduction in severe menstrual cramping. The support from the advanced specialist nurse and referrals to other disciplines are central to my ongoing care.
My criticism is the waiting times for pelvic physio and psychological support via CBT.
