Reaction to Deep Endometroisis Diagnoses

Hello!

I had surgery yesterday and was diagnosed with deep endometriosis (the consultant said they don't use the stage system anymore but basically it was a sever case).

When I woke up I had 2 incisions and was convinced that they didn't find anything. I started to feel crazy, like I had made everything up and convinced myself I was in pain when I wasn't. After I spoke to the consultant I felt relieved that they found something - is it strange to have this reaction when the diagnoses is severe? I felt that the consultant and nurses were a bit baffled by my reaction as obviously they were hoping to find nothing.

I think the reality hasn't fully sunken in yet but it would be great to know if other people have experienced similar feelings?

Thanks!
