    Hysterectomy? You are 22 what the hell! Can they do something to save it. OMG I am not even looking at the no baby thing I am concerned about the long term effects the loss of hormones can have on you. My thoughts and prayers are with you :)

    well we talked and since endometriosis feeds off of estrogen the less hormones i have going through my system, the better. but i am so young and the hot flashes/early menopause will be a bitch, but i would so much rather have that than everything else i have been going through. thank you for the prayers! they are much needed rightnow :)

    What the...?! Wow, I'm so, so sorry about this. Let us know when the op will be, and I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and wishes. I understand what you mean about the estrogen and hormones and needing to have less of them. I pray that you feel SOOOOOO much better after the op. My mum took vitamin E capsules and fish oil capsules to reduce inflammation and scar tissue after that operation. I'm not sure if it helped - might be worth checking out?
    Beautiful avatar pic of you, by the way :)
    *hugs* I'll be thinking of you. xo
