Tough decision: Difficult decision. Bring all your questions/concerns to your doctor. Sometimes pain going away means problem over and you are ok. In this case you still do not know cause of pain. The lap might give clue, might be too late to see problem, or might find a life threatening problem. Best answer needs physical exam-and/or second opinion. Unknown pelvic pain likely myofascial pain, lap will not show.
