I'm home. I'm sore, I feel like I have been hit by a truck, but I am home and well.
The surgery went well. Suprisingly enough I wasn't even nervous. Given my recent history of anxiety attacks, I was a little nervous of how I would do, but my blood pressure was 111 over 72 right before surgery. Not bad.
They found endometriosis, but were able to remove it all. I don't know yet how bad it was or what it was attached to, I will find out in 2 weeks at my post-op appt. The dr. did tell Pace that we really need to try and get pg within the next 6 months due to the endo. If only it were that easy.
I did really well the first day...then I woke up this morning. I have never taken pain pills, so I was a little freaked out to take them. So I started out small...big mistake. I finally got desperate enough to take 2 today (which was the recommended amount) and that is definately the magic number!
I will write more later, but I wanted to just let you all out there know how it went. Sorry I don't have a lot of details, but I will know much more after my appt. in a couple of weeks.
Thank you all so much for your thoughts, kind words, prayers and good wishes. I actually feel hopeful again and as soon as I heal I am ready to jump right back in to agressive TTC.
Much love!

Hey! I'm so glad everything went well. I have a friend who had the same surgery and they told her she needed to get prego within a year and it was like 11 1/2 months later and she figured it just didn't work, but then got pregnant, so don't freak out if it doesn't happen right away.
I'm so glad to hear all went well (even if you've joined me in the endo club) and it's good to know they got everything out. Look fwd to the post-op info and keep takin' those good meds! Get ready for some more baby-makin' time:-) Wishing you all the luck in the world! (hugs)
