- Hi all - I just wanted to let everyone know that today is the day for her hysterectomy. I know she was really scared going into this, but she has been in a tremendous amount of pain for a very long time and I am praying that she gets some relief...
- My second lap was two weeks ago today. I am feeling much better; I didn't take any meds today (not even Motrin) and I'm definitely uncomfortable but it's manageable. What isn't manageable is how freaking tired I am all the time! I can barely force...
- I had an appointment with my RE today to discuss my upcoming surgery, and before I left I said, "Alright. Laser versus excision. Go."He laughed and then said that people have very strong opinions on the matter (to which I laughingly agreed), and...
- Hi ladies - as we all know, we get a ton of women coming in here because they have laps scheduled and they are nervous and don't know what to expect. I was thinking it would be nice if we came up with a master list of advice for a lap - what to...
- Has anyone else been told they have this, and if so, what did your doc say about it? I've been googling the shit out of it and all I'm coming up with is that I have a ton of endo there. Any input is greatly appreciated :)
- I always hear people describe gas pains as "just" gas. And I used to think, well, maybe I'm just a wimp with a low tolerance for pain! Of course, this was before I was diagnosed with Stage 4 endometriosis and now, of course, I know that I'm not a...
- Hi everyone:So a quick introduction: I have stage IV (severe) endometriosis. During my period and ovulation I am in constant, terrible pain (usually around an 8/10 on the pain scale). The rest of the month I usually vacillate between a 3 and a 6,...
- I have dreams that I'm pregnant all the time. Always have, ever since I was a teenager. And every single time I dream that I am pregnant, at the end of my dream I realize that I've been faking it all along and I wake up in tears.Sometimes I dream...
- I was supposed to have an HSG yesterday but that didn't happen based on the results of the ultrasound they gave me beforehand. My ovaries are in bad, bad shape and he went ahead and scheduled me for surgery without running any more tests....
- Hey all - I already posted this on the infertility board, so I apologize to those of you who see it twice. I am finally scheduled for my SHG on Wednesday. It'll be day 6 in my cycle which means I'll still be pretty sore. I'm wondering if I should go...
- So my RE's secretary finally called me, I have to go in for my SHG at 11:30 on Wednesday morning. I've been warned that this procedure can be particularly painful for someone with endometriosis...I'm wondering if I should return to work after the...
- I have been in near constant discomfort for this entire month. I don't want to call it pain, because it's nowhere near as bad as my periods are...but I have been VERY uncomfortable every single day. I have a lot of pain when my bladder is full and...
- My periods have always been pretty regular...for the past few months they've been either early or late by less than a week, but I think that was the cysts on both ovaries throwing things off. Anyway, I just started using an OPK last month. Last...
- I just read this and it absolutely cracked me up...thought I'd share!"A recent provocative study by Vercellini et al. determined that women with the most severe form of endometriosis appeared more attractive to external observers than those with...
- I think I'm going to be having one soon...the doctor said that they can be painful, and then added, "especially for someone like you". I'm assuming he meant because of the endo. Has anyone ever had one? I'm honestly not too worried about the...
