    • Close Endometriosis

      At13 my periods were painful.My pain worsened at 16.At 17 had baby,my painful periods stopped.But bled every day & was put on many meds without success.At 20 had an ultra scan, revealed p.o.c.s.At 23 had my 1st lap & was diagnosed with Endo.Pain intensifyed after surgery bleeding got heavier.I became immobilised by my illness in 2004 even with lots of pain med's.At 27 had 2nd lap & I had Endo in my bowel,bladder and womb.I had adhesions,bleeding cervix,swollen womb.3rd lap is in Dec 2007.

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Not Working
      This worsened my pain and also made me feel very sick.
      Hysteroscopy Not Working
      I didn't feel any benefit of this procedure taking place, but I do think the rewards of this procedure are hidden as it does remove some of the edometriocal tissue therefore preventing other issues. This may work for some but it didn't work for me as I had adhesions from the endometriosis.
      Mirena Somewhat Helpful
      This is the second time I have had the Marina inserted. The first time round I bled every two weeks and my bleeds were heavy and still very painful. This time my periods have stopped but I feel this is due to my cervex being quarterized at the same time.
      Surgery Working / Worked
      I have had surgery twice and unfortunately I really haven't seen any rewards. All that happens is I discover the Endom. has caused more problems that surgery can't erradicate. My doctor also explained the surgery wasn't a solution it just provented other things happening.
