 There’s very few doctors who feel comfortable treating endometriosis.
Most women wait years for a diagnosis and are turned away or were told “it was all in their head”. I was just lucky I had good insurance so I could self-refer. It’s kind of funny that I diagnosed correctly before the doctor. Definitely ask your wifey. Anything and everything. It’s not the worst recovery, but it’s not like super comfortable either 
 She says be careful of damp foods. So, no dairy, bread, noodles, sugar, processed foods, potatoes, no nightshades, coconut milk, and no alcohol. Pretty much noththing from a box. I know you guys don’t drink alcohol. No coffee. No bad oils, no refined sugars, no refined carbohydrates (white enriched foods). Things that are good are going to be whole foods like brown rice, whole grains. Internal arnica will be good. You need to focus on healing your digestive system since it’s probably shot right now. She would talk with you if you’re interested. 
 Whole grains are my shit! I’m gonna have to give up coffee for a bit 😭

The doctor literally told me it was cool if I smoke weed, but I just have to wait till tomorrow 
 Eating weed it is! 
 I knowww. I have a tincture I could use, but it’s not the same
