Newbie here and I have a guestion! (Endometriosis Pain)

Hi everyone !!!! I am trying to get everything going to get the surgery right now! Just starting out so it will probably be awhile till Im on the losing side, thats if I get approved!! Anyways here is my question........Is there anyone on here that has chronic pain, Endometriosis, or adhesions, that has had the surgery done and is doing well with it? Im scared that because I cant excercise and can only walk short distance and I mean SHORT because of the pain, that I wont lose as much as I want to or that it wont even work for me! write me back please anyone with information about this!!! Its appreciated big time!! Amber

but on the other side loosing the weight might enable some of those issues to go away and you will be able to move more.. good luck

Thanks Stacey !!! I hope soo !!!

Amber, I had lap band done and Dr. Barker spent 2/3 of his surgery time removing adhesions from a previous surgery I had when I was 5. I was in a lot more pain than most patients, after about 7 days I was feeling almost back to normal. I couldn't really walk very much until then. Now I'm starting to go back to the gym for some gentle cardio and I'm two weeks post op.

So Leticia what you are saying is .... I have alot to look forward to! LOL Im probably going to be in there twice the time that Im suppose to be huh! Thanks Leticia for the information! Amber

Dont know about the issues - but as for exercising. If you have trouble walking maybe try looking into some chair exercises? I broke my ankle and couldnt walk for almost 3 months... I bought a resistance band and was able to workout sitting down (cant beat that!) Also maybe check out some water aerobics or just do some laps

Thanks jennifer yeah I can do a little bit of water excercising, so hopefully that will be enough excercising! And I will try the chair thing !Thanks again for the advice!!
