hello everyone
this is ashwini ..i went thru jpouch surgery in 2008
recently i wqs diagnosed with hydrosalpinx of the left tube
eoc has recommended essure procedure .
i read lotta posts on internet abt sideeffects of the essure n m terrified to get it done.
i m not comfortable having a foreign body inside me hanging in my uterus and also u cannot remove it if you have sideeffects..its irreversible and to remove it oneite need hysterectomy.
reading all this had scared me but my Re thinks due to jpouch surgery doing laproscoic tubal litigation is a greater risk and can damage the jpouch
will there be a lot of scarring inside ? i did my jpouch surgery laproscopically in 2steps. wasnt tht suppose to cause less scarring ? then why my Re thinks its a.big risk ?
i m so devasted...i am 32and dont hv any kids yet.
does anyone have any exp regarding this ?
thanks for listening

If I were you I'd get an appointment with your C/R surgeon as he/she should be consulted about this surgery as well. Sometimes OBGYN's and C/R surgeons both are in the operating room for difficult female surgeries. I think you are right to ask about this now. There is a woman's topics place on here too. You might want to post there too.
Thanks a lot for your input toughenough
I have scheduled an appointment with my c/r surgeon. Will see what he will say.
Seems like Adiana is also similar procedure and is pretty new but doesnt have any metail coils so the risk of perforation is less.
But I am not finding any information on which RE or OB/GYN does that procedure.
I have also scheduled an appoinment with my OB/GYN to discuss mini laparotomy and risk of hurting the bowel.
I am trying to contact Arabella who had done essure but I am not able to getin touch with her.
Do you have any suggestion how to contact her?
thanks a lot again
