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.
Ok, so I'm fairly new to the diagnoses, and I've read all of the books, on-line materials...I feel like I know many of the symptoms of endo. But this one I never saw.
Lately my right hand feels a little stiff. It usually hits around the same time that one of my legs feels tingly, but not always. Do you also have this? Is it technically another related illness?
Endo for Dummies says that people with endo are often diagnosed with other auto immune conditions. For example, 65% of us have allergies.
I know I don't have a thyroid condition, so that's not it. What else could it be?
Do you have this too? It comes and goes with me, isn't constant.

I've gone to physical therapy for my back many times but never for my shoulder. Now I wonder if I should go back to PT, or try a chiropractor? Hmmmmm...
Yes, my "hip" hurts too. Actually, it's my outer thigh, and my butt on my right side. That's the side where they found the most lesions.
Chiropractor told me to stay away from caffine and carbonated beverages first and foremost. I do drink a couple sodas a day...but it's so hard to give up the things that we love so much.
