Not a problem at all! Yes, each day I feel a little better, but I still have that lingering exhausted feeling still throughout the day.

1. Almost 2 months ago my doctor did a SIS (saline infusion) procedure on me as he thought he saw what looked to be growths in my uterus from an ultrasound image. Since that produces a 3D image of your utuerus, it was clear as day that I had a septate uterus.

2. Well, I've always had irregular periods and such that come with PCOS, but it wasn't until I had my 2nd cyst erupt this past September that things REALLY started hurting. Prior to Sept every now and then it would hurt during sex and I thought this to be normal. After the 2nd cyst erupted in Sept, there was pain all the time. Also, for the first few weeks it hurt like hell to go #2. So basically from all the symptoms my doctor suggested we do the lap surgery and then since the SIS image did not clearly show/deny any growths he suggested the hys surgery and then correct the septate as well.

3. They did put a catheter of some sort in me from fixing the septate. I had my surgery last Thursday morning and then they removed that at my post-op appointment Monday afternoon. I really couldn't tell it was there, but once they removed it on Monday I felt discomfort for the rest of the day so it was then that I definitely new something was there. lol

Please feel free to ask any other questions. It sounds like we may have a similar case. I don't mind sharing my history. In fact, if you search for threads started by me you'll find my newbie thread introducing what has happened for the past 2 years since the first cyst erupted.

When is your surgery scheduled for?

Good luck!
