Yes this does help. Oddly enough the chest pain has returned but in too short of a time to be due to ovulation or Menstration. Now that I have said that I went back to see what the date was I went to the hospital with the first onset of chest pain. Believe it or not it was January 31, now it is March 3.. so doing the math It would be 30 days exactly.. however I didn't have any pains in my ovaries or that area this month which I normally do. The chest pain lasted almost two weeks last time. I am hopes it will not be around that long this time nor can I figure out what I am doing to aggrevate it. I do have occasional drenching night sweats (so bad I have to change my clothes) but not necessarily associated with or in the time frame of the chest pain or ovarian pain.
As for the Laprascope I am leaning in the direction as well. The birth control pill scares the heck out of me only because after the birth of my first child I attempted to go back on the BC (I had been on them since I was 17 and went off them to get pregnant with my first child at age 23. My body rejected the BC the second time around, I was very sick so much so that it wasn't worth taking them so I took the diaphram approach instead and 11 months later I was pregnant with #2.
I have a business trip to attend mid month so when I return I will reevaluate the situation and make my decision. Yes I have had a complicated GYN history. I thought it was over after the last surgery in 2000 but here I go again. I feel like there is nothing left to take out but now knowing that the endometriosis can develop and this could be the cause of pain I have to think about this all over again. I really do not want to loose both ovaries the OBGYN suggested maybe taking one out, we discussed my family history and when I may go into menapause my mother had a hysterectomy at age 45 and had not gone into menapause but did immediatly following her hysterectomy. my only sister 8 years my elder started at age 46 within two years following her hysterectomy (she was left with 1 ovary) there is a chance it will start anytime for me. I did have a base line test done years ago so we could watch my hormone balance. It might not be a bad idea to do this again to compare the two. I would think if I was due to go into peri or full menapause my hormone count would indicate this. The OBGYN mentioned if that is the case removal of both ovaries might be the best idea.
No matter what I decide it will be a tough decision to make. I will keep you posted on my final decision.
