Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.
There IS a diversity on this board because women are in various stages of their lives and of their endometriosis. There seems to be days that NOBODY feels like posting. PLEASE don't take it personally. Don't leave...I will try to research your "previous posts" to see if I can be of any help.
I actually posted yesterday a thread called 'ovary pain'. I don't know if it is like what you're experiencing, but maybe we could be going through the something similar.
I hope you don't leave, we all need support.
Hope you stick around.
I know sometimes a lot of us post and only receive one or two responses, but on the other end of that I completely agree with 'shoesands' when she said that many of us are so sick ourselves we don't have the strength and energy to get on and post as much as we would like to.
I wholeheartedly can tell you that the woman on this board have been a source of comfort, strength, inspiration and sometimes just 'a shoulder to cry on or vent to' for me.....AND I mean that even when they may not respond to my posts, please don't leave the board and know that the woman here are an amazing group of strong woman battling the same disease.
Give it time, maybe go thru and read other's posts, perhaps you may find many woman posting similar things as yourselves and make connections or find comfort that way.
Know that you are not alone, we are all just fighting this battle and we need eachother's support.
Many of us, like SpeckledPup said are in various stages of our lives with our endo, some going thru surgeries and some just tired and sick of being tired and in pain and do not get on as much as we'd like too.
I hope you stay! We all need support!!
