- Since last night, I've had this bad abdominal pain in my upper right side. I don't have a gallbladder or appendix. Could this be endo? Most of my endo pain has been lower abdominal pain, or a nagging pain around my stomach.
- I need your advice. When do you decide it is time for the doctor?I've been nauseated for 2 weeks. Sometimes I'll start dry heaving with the nausea. Today I was vomiting. The nausea is very on and off and isn't really affected by me eating/not...
- Ugh! I have had such bad nausea this week and it is only getting worse. I would imagine it is much like morning sickness. I can often eat with it and sometimes it gets better when I eat. I can go from feeling fine to feeling awful in seconds. ...
- Is it possible to start experiencing side effects from bc pills months after starting them? I started taking Loestrin about 10 months ago, around the same time as my diagnosis. Of course I was rather "down" when I was diagnosed, and then it got...
- I know that estrogen makes the endo grow. I don't understand why (if that is true) we are all put on the pill, which is usually estrogen? I'm sure drs have a reason and understand it better than I do, but I don't get it. Can anyone explain?
- So I know this is a common symptom of endo on the bladder. When I had surgery last December, they found endo on my bladder, but I didn't have any symptoms of it. (Unless having a difficult time getting the flow going is a symptom...sometimes I...
- I went gluten-free two weeks ago. I'm still not eating extremely healthy, but I'm working on it and the gluten is gone. I got my period today and have had very little pain...I haven't even taken anything yet! I don't remember a period with this...
- I have hip pain, which I know can be a symptom of endo. The thing is, it came on last time when I had an ovarian cyst and got better when the cyst and the endo was removed. It's back. Last week I had a lot of nausea and ovarian pressure, so I...
- I've been really nauseated for a week now. I normally have an hour or so of nausea a day that my drs tell me is endo related, but I usually lie down for a bit and have some crackers or something and I'm fine. Not this time. I threw up once. I've...
- My doctor wants me to try cutting out dairy, gluten, processed foods, sugar, etc. Basically, my whole diet. :-o I tried that today and I'm so hungry! What do you eat to fill you up? I know fruits and vegetables...but I mean to really fill you...
- Just got back from an endo specialist! It's so hard because I have a few doctors who I think are good, but they say very different things. The specialist just said there are different schools of thought. This doctor is a big believer in Lupron. ...
- For those of you who don't cramp every day...How many days before your period does your cramping start?How many days after your period does your cramping end?I feel like I have no "normal" now since surgery. My symptoms seem to constantly change. ...
- I finally am seeing an endo specialist next week. Now that the appt is finally coming up, I'm forgetting what questions to ask. What questions would you make sure to ask? Here's a rundown on me:Had surgery to dx endo in Dec. I know I had it for...
- Okay, so I had my first lap in December. On the papers, it said "excision of endometriosis", so I assume it was excision surgery, which I hear is the best. Now I got the surgical report, it does say there was some excision, but it also says...
- I've been on loestrin since October. Since then, I've been diagnosed with endo and going through some tough things. Lately, however, things seem different. I seem much more "down" without a reason. I'll cry a lot, but not over anything specific....
