I was feeling better and then the pain woke me in the middle of the night again. I was up most the night.


Donna- I am going to see my GYN

(((((((((Tina))))))))) I'm sorry you're still in so much pain. And that you have to wait so long to see your gyn. But, hopefully she/he will find out what is triggering all this pain and set about fixing it. I don't know much about endo, but know that I'm sending healing vibes and hugs your way.


Hugs,
Traci

Oh Donna, do I ever know what you mean about being fed up with doctors.

I had a terrible time with pain. My periods grew longer and heavier and I had very bad, sharp, stabbing pains in my lower abdomen/groin area. It would bring tears to my eyes at time.

First they said I needed a partial hysterectomy. They took my uterus which was "falling" and enlarged. I was told that should solve the problem. It didn't.

They then did an endoscopy and discovered I had pretty bad endometriosus on both ovaries plus a lot of old scar tissue from a surgery years before.
After they took my ovaries and tubes the pain finally went away.
