Some of my Endo growth was also not removed b/c it would damage my uterus and I need that for babies
I'm currently doing Lupron.
As for work, I'm on intermittent FMLA. You can contact your HR dept about it. I usually get 4-5 days/month covered. Your dr will fill out all the appropriate paperwork.
You need to request a copy of your file from your GYN's office. That should include any surgery notes, photos, etc. You need to know what is really going on.
