Feeling crappy. Pain and a constant urge to pee. Exhaustion all the time. HOSPITAL VISIT when they told me nothing was wrong, just an ovarian cyst that would "go away". Constant lower back pain. Pelvic and bladder pain. The worry the I may not be able to have children. The WONDERING if it's even endo...(the doctor suspects it, but can't make an official diagnosis). COULD IT BE SOMETHING ELSE?! I've had so many pelvic sonograms and was told everything was normal, except that my pelvis was inflammed. Was given antibiotics even though I had no urinary infection. I was given 4 rounds of antibiotics in 4 months, which gave me a whole host of other probs!!! I had a horrible gyno but at least I switched to a better one. JUST FEELING SOOOO BLAH AND FEELING LIKE NO ONE UNDERSTANDS, SO I DON'T EVEN COMPLAIN ANYMORE. I havent even told my boyfriend! he doesnt know I may have this, and I am wondering how he'll react.  Sorry this post is all over the place... sigh. |

You are describing some of the things I was feeling all this year, but I had no idea I had endo until my lap this past Aug. I was exhausted all the time and sick constantly. I had a bunch of ultra sounds. They said my ovarian cyst would go away and it didn't obviously. I had to have it removed and that's how they finally figured out I had endo. I was misdiagnosed all year long until I finally found a decent gyno who performed my surgery. I'm glad you found someone you like. Hang in there. If you want answers you deserve to have them.

You sound like me 2 years ago!!!! Scared, tired, in pain, keeping quiet about it, it SUCKS! I really feel for you, hun!
I know it's hard when you're feeling awful, it really is, but now's the time you really need to advocate for yourself and get answers. See your gyn, talk over all your symptoms and issues, and demand some action. If you feel a lap is your next step, ask for it. Don't be afraid to ask from help - from your docs, your friends, and your boyfriend. (And I'd be willing to bet that your bf would be nothing but supportive when you tell him, and you'll have one less thing to worry about after you talk to him!)
Hugs!

That's horrible!
I would say that there's always someone who's willing to listen, even if it's just us on the boards. So, if you don't have a supportive ear, come here!
I hope you get some answers, soon, and find a doc that will listen, and do his/her best to make you feel better.
