Severe pain 8 weeks out from laparascopy

Hello

This morning I woke up to get ready for work, as I started moving around my left side started hurting and eventually is now unbearable.  I've been experiencing pain on the left side for about 2 weeks but would ease with Advil or midol and wouldn't interfere with my everyday activities  

I had my surgery about 8 weeks ago in which my doc removed endo on both ovaries, my colon, bladder, right hip muscle and had to reconstruct my Fallopian tubes.

I have a call in to my doctor but the pain is just getting worse!  Is this normal? I'm just at a loss I don't know why or what to do.  Any input or advice will help

It was excised off.  I went in to the doc today but since my doctor was out I had to see the oncall doc. He basically told me it was period and that if I continued to have pain to call in a couple of days and come in for a sono.  :( we shall see

I would say yes and no. It could be normal since the extensive work you had done it could be part of the healing, such as the adhesions forming and pulling.

Your follow up is usually 6 weeks after surgery, anyway that you can go in sooner?

Was the Endo excised or lasered off?
