Endometriosis Surgery Aftermath?

Question - (21 January 2010) 5 Answers - (Newest, 21 January 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Okay everyone, im an 18 year old female and i have a few questions to ask, theyre about my health. A few weeks ago the doctor found out that i have chronic endometriosis, a bad appendix, and a cyst on my uterus. I had surgery to have all this removed, but here recently ive been experiencing pain in my upper right abdomen. This has never happened to me before and I was just wondering what it could be. I did some research online and I understand the liver produces estrogen in women, could this be linked to me having endometriosis? The pain ranges from my right upper abdomen, to the upper middle of it, into my right breast, up the right side of my neck, and in my right shoulder (also in lower back from time to time). Please help me understand what is going on. Ive been light headed recently and I'm really worried that this could eventually lead to more critical problems. Any advice?

Thank you all for your answers i went back to the doctor about a week ago and he told me if i was experiencing any pain to let him know but i mean i wasnt hurting whenever i seen him it just started recently, last night i was hurting so bad I couldnt sleep, I couldnt even make it to school today thats how bad its been getting, ive also heard when u have your appendix removed that it can sometimes cause you to have gallbladder problems and thats what i was wondering but thanks you guys i'm going to call him today.

I would hope very much that the pain you're experiencing is related to your recent surgery. However, the best thing you can do is go back to your doctor and have another check up.

Go to your doctor or back to the hospital. If you've had surgery recently they will want you to contact them if you start having pain or discomfort. Call the surgeon's secretary or the ward you were on and let them know. If not then certain try and see your GP. I am sorry to hear about you having these problems but you need to get professional help. It constantly amazes me how many people think they can get some sort of reliable medical diagnosis over an internet forum instead of going to the doctor.
