Please dont think this is a rant about motherhood etc and think Im being ungrateful, I love it and count myself blessed everyday for amelia. And also its not exactly endo related but please bare with me. So throughout my pregnancy I developed these cysts in my groin which make walking agony and Im sick with the pain, I was told they should go after I had amelia but they never stopped in fact now they dont even flare up and go they are here all the time its just a question of how painful they are, Ive been told the only thing they can do is a skin graft because they are so permanant now. This is totally out of the question because I cant be out of action that long with looking after amelia. 2nd thing, Im losing my hair, big bold patch at the back, like my self esteem wasnt bad enough. Got docs tomorrow. AND my hemroids are awwwwwful at the minute and I lent my grandmother my holey cushion so now sitting for me is really freaking sore!!! after the birth was told they were the worst the midwife had ever seen and although they've been better the last few months now they are back. Kind of feels like Im winning the endo fight but have taken on three more in its place. I know compared to endo hell these are nothing, please dont think Im being disrespectful babes, OH is on a 24hr shift and Im feeling a little low about it all. Sorry, thank you for listening!

If your hemorhoids are that much of a problem you need a change in diet! Trust me this is the only thing that worked. Get yourself on a fiber or pysislium fiber and the hemroihds will have a chance to heal. Witch hazel and preparation H's is the bomb. Use the witch hazel on the tissue to wipe and follow it up with the PH. I also had one of those cysts and it took about a year and a half to clean up. I stopped 'picking' at it and it finally cleared up. Man was it annoying!! So I totally hear you. My hubby does 72 hour shifts so I hear you. Its easy to become overcome by everything when you don't have anyone to talk you out of it.

OUCH, I can only imagine how horrible those cysts are. One of my friends had to have one drained by the doc, right around the time she had her daughter, because she could hardly walk.

I sometimes get nasty things like that on groin/tops of thighs. Thought I was a freak! No-one else I know gets them that bad, they can be so so sore. Also been losing my hair since mid twenties acne under jawline.........yada yada yada. So I'm feeling your pain and frustration too! Can't really advise on the piles as I've never managed to find a pattern with mine. And they're not nothing hun, they're causing you pain on top of eveything else you go through. Rant away! Helen xx

;D I went to the docs today and saw a really lovely locum, he had a look and has said that I have a fungal infection in my scalp which is more then likely linked to the cysts in my groin because of how advanced they are (I now have 7!!!) He's gievn me a shampoo which should clear it up and said that there is other treatment available if it doesnt he also said that there is NO reason that the hair wont grow back ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
and as for the hemroids, he said I need to wait to see if im pregnant this month and if Im not he can give me a steroid cream that will get rid of them for the 'forseeable future!!'
All round good trip to the docs!!! whoop whoop!
