    • About Me

      I am 27 years old and was diagnosed with endometriosis a few months ago. I recently had my first surgery after months of pain and tests. I would like to thin I have a high tolerance of pain. However the chronic pain and frustration are now becoming an issue between my husband and myself. I am looking for a support group to help with this issue. I would like to be able to not bother him with my daily issues in hopes this would help with both of our frustrations.

      From alh24 January 25

      hey girl, I just read your story and was touched! I've had endometriosis scince I was 13, and have been dealing with pan constantly. I missed alot of high school and it made me eventually drop out, I've lost lots of jobs and struggled to keep boyfriends. I am married now and kinda goin what your goin through. I know my husband is so sick of my constant pain, especially when my period comes. It's also caused infertility for us. I struggle everday with this and I've been struggling scince I was a young girl. Why? I was always blaming myself,why me? It's gotten so bad that when I'm in pain the only way to stop it is moraphine, therefor I need to go to the er, I've been to the er every month scince august. Its depressing, cause I get embarresed thinking what are the dr's and nurses thinking, I know they recognize me. And I've gotten to the point I wait till my husband leaves for work then I go to the er, I just know he gets embarresed and I dont wanna put him through that,so I go alone and sit alone. I've had 1 lap surgery and no pregnancy occured, and im trieng to talk my dr to do it again cause I know its grown back worse. sorry if I'm jabbing I just wanted to let you know that you are NOT alone! And if you ever need to talk im here and a good listner:) your in my thaughts and prayers... Ashley
