u/-FAAAAAAAAAACK-

This is a serious question for this community.

I am currently 1 week out from exploratory Endo surgery (already having been confirmed for Adenomyosis and a Fibroid)

I have barely at all taken Tylenol, Advil, Naproxen, zero opioids etc

I cant tell if I'm just able to mental strength my way through potential pain? or if its not as bad as I think it is. *this was my first surgery ever*

edit: tests were clear for endo, but the abdominal pain is slightly still there? I just literally cant tell how much pain I'm supposed to be feeling for a procedure like this and whether or not the amount or level of pain is normal post explore
