    • About Me

      30 yr old with Endometriosis and Fibromyalgia. Endo since young teen. After years of pleading I finally had a sub-total hysterectomy 2 yrs ago. Docs wouldn't take everything out like I wanted. So...still in pain! Fibro started after hysterectomy. Very happily married 9 years to a wonderful guy.

      From Bdancer September 23

      I would love to be your friend!

      I see you are a fellow bellydancer as well!! Even if you can't physically dance anymore, you ARE STILL a dancer if it's in your heart and soul...that's how I see it!

      Fortunately, I can still dance and go to classes...just not like I used to. It is harder and sometimes I skip class because I'm just too tired and hurt too much. I try not to think about the day when I will no longer be able to.

    • Close Endometriosis

      Had Endometriosis since age 12. Finally officially diagnosed in 2005. Very validating to see the endo from surgery pics. Had sub-total hysterectomy 2 years ago at age 28. Helped the uterus cramping and excessive bleeding but I'm still in pain. I have tried too many treatments to even list here and have found no relief. I'm currently being told that my endo doesn't exist any longer which is not true. I cannot seem to find the right doc to help me.

      Treatments

      Extended-Cycle Birth Control Somewhat Helpful
      Not taking now but would take the edge off the pain.
      Laser Surgery Not Working
      No better.
      Ortho Evra Not Working
      No improvement. Wasn't on it long.
      Progesterone Cream Not Working
      No difference.
      Provera Not Working
      Was on this a short time. Not sure why really. I refused to continue using it because the hormone is manufactured in an inhumane way with horses.
      Surgery Somewhat Helpful
      Sub-total Hysterectomy at age 28. Obviously stopped the uterus pain but that's about it.
      Lupron Somewhat Helpful
      Again took the edge off the pain but not for long.
