About Me
I am 27 years old and am married with a 7 year old son and a 9 year old step-daughter who doesn't live with us.I love fashion, photography and spending quiet time at home with my family. I have been off work for a couple months and am trying to get onto disability because of my endometriosis and my serious depression as well as a thyroid problem. I am very sick and can hardly walk anymore. It's so hard for me to get around but I keep on truckin for my son and my husband. He is my support system as well as a friend that's going through depression as well. I don't know what I would do without him though. He really keeps me grounded.!!
Interests
-quiet time -gardening -looking for golf balls with my son -spending time with both of my kids -trying to get healthy again -trying to be happy again there's a lot of things I would like to be different but I accept for now. I hope things get better for me but I am really trying to look at the positive in things lately. It's hard but I'm trying.

Support Groups
Close Endometriosis
2 years ago I had a miscarriage and ever since I have had a lot of pain. I have had 3 laparoscopies and still have yet to be technically diagnosed with endo but every dr. says that's what they think I have. I am now on continuous BC pills and they are helping to manage the pain but I keep getting my periods for 4 weeks or more at a time.
Treatments
- Extended-Cycle Birth Control Somewhat Helpful
- I am on Yasmin and it somewhat helps manage the pain but I still get periods for weeks at a time when I shouldn't. It's supposed to stop my periods all together
- Provera Working / Worked
- am now more recently on my first shot of depo provera. Within 2 days my pain was almost gone. I have been spotting for over a week now so I hope that goes away soon but I feel a lot better.
- Surgery Somewhat Helpful
- I had 2 laps to cut out cysts I had and it worked to stop the pain for a couple of months and then it starts all over again.
