Anyone develop symptoms after laparoscopy for potential endo?

Had a laparoscopy in October apparently I had adhesions and my bowel was stuck to the bowel wall or something along those lines which they supposedly sorted. According to the gyne it wasn't endo (altho he's not a specialist so who knows).

I've never been a big eater but my appetite has got worse and worse until I was just living off a packet of crisps and handful of dry cornflakes, struggling to stay hydrated ect until eventually my body just gave up and I couldn't even sit up or open my eyes properly for several days. Doctor says I've got clinical malnutrition and I'm surviving off fortisip now as well as the few beige things I seem to be able to tolerate. I suggested gastro as I seem to have all the symptoms but doctor doesn't think it's that.

I have noticed that this also seems to overlap with people who have some form of hyper mobility which I also have. Just interested to see if this is something other people have experienced as the doctors never seem to take me seriously.

(PS: did literally beg my GP for help before the collapse but he just weighed me went 🤷‍♀️ and then said it was my mental health sooo)
