| Comments: | Hi, My name is Christina Lawrence. I knew of endometriosis at a young age, because my aunt has it. Well my son was about 6 months old when I found out that, I too, have endometriosis. I was only 21. Growing up, I always had painful cramps w/ my period. Miscarried when I was 18. then became pregnant again @ 19. And I see my son as a blessing, seeing that my husband and I cannot seem to get pregnant to save my life! But it was nice reading that Im not the only one out there suffering! Thank You For Starting This Site!
God Bless Christina U.S. Army Wife |

| Comments: | I know a few women that suffer from the samething, myself being one of them. I swear, is there something in the water or what?? I have been suffering for 5 years. It started with cysts on my overies. Then I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I've had 4 so far all on my left ovary and they let 2 burst. I was crying in pain, they don't seem to understand or don't care. Then about 2 months ago I was diagnosed with endomyosis too. My doctor has tried one med. for pain, it did not work. Says he is going to try one more then if that don't work he's going to take out my uteris. But he is not really giving me anything for pain, things like naproxin, hell that's an anti-inflamitory drug.I just do not understand some of their methods. |

| Comments: | Hi my name is Jamie and my sister in law accidently stumbbled upon this site and thought of me. So, here is my story I started with severe menstural cycles at the age of 9. I like some of the others missed school alomost every month I never saw an OB/GYN till I was pregnant with my first child. So it was never an issue with my mom we never went to the Dr. So I was misdiagnosed many times and for many years. It was very frustrating getting cyst after cyst and noone ever listening to me. I have have been accused of drug seeking and that is even more frustrating because you do start to believe them when it is repettitive. I was misdiagnosed was 5 yrs finally I got an OB/GYN that listened and we disgust many option and felt like a partial hysterectomy was our best option I was24 at the time. I still have my ovaries. My hyst was in May of 07 then in Dec. 07 I had to have emergency surgery my fallopian tubes were twisted and my right tube was filling with fluid. It was huge!!!! then on Dec.30 I was in severe pain for a week finally gave in and had to go to the er and they admitted me for further tests and pain control. On Jan.4 they took me to the O.R. for diagnostic lap. They found massive amount of endometriosis and scrapped and cut and burned every where now I am on Lupron and still in alot of constant pain. I am blessed to have three wonderful and beautiful children ages 3,5, and 6 I would love any advice that can be given. Thank you for the site. Back to the Dr. next week. |

| Comments: | I have also been suffering from Endo for the past 8 years. It's been a long up hill battle. I sometimes wonder how I will find away to make it through another painful day. If it was not for the love of my husband and 6 year old daughter, I may have taken the easy way out. |

| Comments: | We have a lot in common. I also suffer with endometriosis and have since the birth of my second daughter in 1995. I have had several laprascopic procedures myself and was finally diagnosed with PCOS a few years ago. I have been down the Lupron route (which lead to other issues). Fortunately, I only have intense pain once or twice a year when a cyst ruptures. Otherwise, I may have some moderate discomfort a few times a week. I have a wonderful and caring OB/GYN. I also have a husband named Jimmy and I love eBaying. I think you have done a wonderful job with your site. I am interested to know how you are doing with breast cancer, since there hasn't been an update recently on your health. Take care. |

| Comments: | I was diagnosed with Endometriosis a year and a half ago and I had to get surgery and had 95% of my left ovary removed. I was 20 years old. I suffered from serious pain from the day I got my period when I was 11 years old. I was a dancer and so I think that helped with some of the pain but I remeber feeling myself "ovulate" or the pain of it. I had to miss school and other activies because of the naseau diarrhea and extreme pain. My family all called me a "drama queen" and tole me I was exaggerating. When I had the worst symptome in my second year of college where I couldn't sleep and was vomiting everyday for a month with extreme back pain and lower abdominal pain people shrugged it off and I started to beleive them. I had to emergency surgery and a grapefruit sized chocolate cyst removed from my left ovary that took 95% of it. I know amd starting to feel those "familiar pains" again and I am scared. I want to have children so badly. I know my chances are slimming and I don't want them to pass but I'm just turning 22 next Sunday, I'm still in school and my boyfriend is no where near that stage in his life. I want to enjoy my life too but it is hard. I have been on antidepressants and birthcontrlol continually so I only get my period 3 or four timea a year but it lasts like 10 days. I am goign to the doctor today - ha has been great - when I was misdiagnosed he was the one that brought me into surgery and he is amazing. I am lucky to be in N.Y. but I have never met anyone with this disease. I am praying that I can find suport somewhere and I will be able to have children in the future.

| Comments: | Hi -- Spotted your Jes MaHarry ring on eBay, then followed your link to this site. I had endometriosis too, and it's a pain in every sense of the word. I had four awful surgeries until I finally had a hysterectomy at the age of 40. Ironically, it was the least painful of any of my previous surgeries. The only bad thing was, of course, the decision about taking hormone therapy. Good grief. I'm sorry you've had to endure the breast cancer as well. But it seems you've really got a great attitude and a spunky spirit, which I think is half the battle. You're in my prayers, pretty lady. Best, Iris
p.s. I'm the parent of four beautiful cat kids. Wish I could adopt about 20 more! |

Guess God isn't done with me. Anyway, I found this website while shopping on your ebay site. I just had to stop in and say hi. Btw, I'm cancer-free 3 1/2 years now! |

I am disabled with many very different problems, BUT, your story of searching for doctors, putting up with meds, more meds, side effects AND being treated as a drug seeker, when ALL YOU WANT IS HELP AND TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY!!!!!BUT, in great need of pain relief. Also, loosing ALL QUALITY of life. The only place i go is to the doctor!!!!!! I ALSO can totally relate to the loss of friends AND FAMILY and the loss of support when you are in desperste need. i feel totally alone!!!! I am unable to write much due to severe arthrits and another newly undianosed probem with my hands. GOOD FOR YOU!! i tried starting an Ebay budiness. i could not do the work. Find the items , list, pack, ship. it is a LOT OF HARD WORK!!!!! I have to have someone else sell for me. She takes 50%, so i normaly loose a LOT OF MONEY!!! All in all, it is a nightmare.I too have made friends online, but noone can relate to the many isues I have. my son also died, so, which group to find??? I wish anyone and everyone the best and invite you to write. Penelope is a WONDERFUL person, who has sufered so much and I am heartbroken at her recent diagnosis. i write to offer my support and encouragement. We are not alone, even though many have various problems, sadly we feel very alone, even in just finding a good doctor. to all who read this The best of luck. Sheri herman srh1018@aol.com (please excuse typos. i can not even write long enought to tell my story.) IF ANYONE HAS HAD LUCK WITH ANY PAIN MED, I WOULD LOVE TO KNWO WHAT HELPPED. I HAVE FIBRO, HAD 7 CAR ACCIDENTS,MIGRAINES, HORMONE PROBLEMS, DEGENERATIVE DISC, FACET SYNDROME (ALL BACK PROBLEMD) HAD A HYSTERECTOMY AND THE LSUNDRY LIST GOED ON |

| Comments: | Hello everyone, I have been struggling with endometerois for almost 5 years now. My husband and I had been trying to conceive a second child for about a year.When nothing was happening, I made an appointment with a specialist and found out that I had endo. My uterus and cervix were both covered, not to mention my rectum. I went in for the laporscopy, and in 3 months, I was pregnant. Here it is 3 years later and wanting to add to the family, and my doctor performed my yearly pap test and informed me that the endo was definitly back. There was so much of it on the back of my uterus that he could actually fell it while doing the exam. My options now are to see a fertility specialist and go from there. My other option is to be put on lupron for 6 months to slow down the growth of the endo, then check and see how much worse my scarring is from the last surgery. If I do another surgury it will be my 4th one for indo. I desperately want another child, but at the same time I am tired of going under the knife. We have two healthy boys that we thank God for everyday. All we can do is leave it in the Lords hands, and his will, will be done. I am so thrilled to have found this site. God bless you all, and keep your faith in Christ. |

I find it's easier to deal with all this when there are wonderful women out there who were brave/smart enough to start sites like this one for other women to share their stories and gain support.

| Comments: | I am 31 years old, and was diagnosed with stage IV endometriosis about one month ago. My doctor has tried birth control and a laparoscopy, and nothing is giving me relief. He has suggested Lupron, but I am very scared of what that will do to me. I am a marathon runner, and have been very depressed and unable to run. I am getting so weak and I am in so much pain. I have been married for three years, and I have no children. My uterus and ovaries are so scarred, it doesn't look like I will ever be able to have my own children. Thank God I am a teacher, and I touch children's lives through my career. I think if I already had kids, my doctor would suggest a hysterectomy. He thinks I am very young to do that, but he also told me that it was my body and he respected my choice. I am very confused about Lupron or the hysterectomy and which route is the better one to take. It just feels like Lupron relief is only temporary. My pain is getting so severe though, that I have missed one day of work over the past four weeks. Being a teacher, this is tough on me and my students. I'm sorry to be venting but I just need someone to talk to or some advice from someone who really knows how I feel. Thanks for reading this. |

| Comments: | I have just been diognosed with endometriosis. and like many others I have felt alone and NO ONE understands! this is affecting my whole family and friends. My doctor wants to do a hysterectomy soon, only if I feel I no longer want children. Ive got one son and a stepdaughter so I feel complete and really have NO desire for more children with the shape I'm in with this disease. I'm scared to do death because I'm only 27 and I will be going through menopause before 30!! I don't want to scare my family away no more than I already have and then on top of that gain weight to make my self esteem go down! I'm glad I'm not alone and I pray for each and every one of the people out there that are dealing with this disease! please let me know if anyone can give me advice on there hysterectomy's and there lives afterwards. Thank You for listening I've needed someone to understand for a long time now!!! |

I am in the early stages of being diagnosed with Endometriosis, I have been battling with pain and horrible periods for years but the doctors just kept putting me off. I finally convinced them after going back for 3 months in a row. They sent me for an ultrasound and found an endometrioma in my left ovary and when I went back 8 weeks later they found something on my right ovary. I have met with a surgeon and go in on 12/2 for her to do an ultrasound then surgery. It's a bit scary and confusing all at the same time. |

So much that I could not have sex. i really had a hard time going to the bathroom to take a shit. The dr. went and looked around inside found endometreosis all over my organs. He went in and colorized it or better term burned it. I was pain free for one year. Now I take the loupron shot every 3 months.

| Comments: | my story starts about 5 years ago. i began having terrible pain on my right side. the doctors thought it was my appendix so the removed them. that worked for about 6 months. next they went in to explore to discover my right tube was about to burts. the removed my tubes and that worked for about 4 months. then they put me on birth controll to take continuously. no perion no pain........hahaha. im february it was back. i still hadnt been diagnosised with endo but they said the only option i had to stop the pain was a hysterectomy. on march 8 i had a hysterctomy but left ovaries and cervix. i started back on the birth controll immediatly after because they said it was endo. i went in for a 6 week check up and scar tissue was already growin on my cervix. now it is june and the pain is back almost as bad as before. i hope some day they find a cure for this because im so sick of takin pain pills or this pill or that pill. im glad to know that im not alone with this. |

| Comments: | I am 29yo and have been going through the painful journey of Endometriosis since I was 20. I have had 9 suregeries and 2 children now. Of course during pregnancy the endo lays dormant (remission). However my oldest is 3 and my youngest is 17mo. Now that I am almost 30, I am in straight menopause!! Having a FULL hysterectomy was my only option. No ovaries, no tubes, cervix, etc. My latest problem is that since I am on the hormone replacement, it now is causing the endo to grow. So pick my poinon. Do I take the hormone replacemnt and stop the hot flashes, moodiness, and allow the endo to keep growing? Or do I get off them and hope like hell it doesn't come back on it's own? It is such a discouraging disease and yet many times people think the pain is all in your head. WRONG!!!!! Here is my favorite response from doctors and outsiders. "Just take some x-tylenol, put a hot pad on your belly and eventually this will go away." My general response to that is, "Do you really think if that worked I would be here spending so much money and time, especially if I know exactly what the symptoms are?" It's not until I get on the operating table and they get a closer look inside, then they realize I wasn't out of my mind. That I really was hurting, how severe it really is, and that I wasn't there just for the pain meds, and then they begin to appoligize all over themselves for being soooo un-feeling. So then they dope you up and wait for the next flair-up. It's just like a viscious circle. When does it stop? Appearently since my hysterectomy, that wasn't the answer. It's now on my bladder, bowel, intestines etc. So for those of you who feel like no one understands and you feel all alone, you're not! It's only those who have been through the miserable experiences who can sympathize with you. I'm on surgey #10 next week and I'm going to insist they just install a zipper begining at my breast bone for all the next surgeries to come. (LOL) You must keep a good sence of humor in situations like mine or else you WILL loose your mind. Just remember, "It's mind over matter, I don't mind and it doesn't matter!!" Good luck to all. |

It puts me into really early Menopause. I really don't know much about Endometriosis, or Loupron either. I got surgery and thats how they found out I had it. I missed alot of my 11th grade year because first I had mono and now I have this. It's been hard, b/c I just feel that I am too young to have to be going through this, maybe I just have bad luck I don't know. I guess that's all I can think of to say. l8er |

THEY FOUND THICKENING OF UTERAN WALL, FLUID BEHIND UTEROUS CAUSED BY CYSTS THAT WOULD BURST. MY MIGRAINES AND PELVIC PAIN WAS CONSISTANT WITH OVULATION AND PERIODS. I WAS ADMITED LAST JUNE WITH WITH MIGRAINES, VOMITING AND SEVERE DIARREAH. HAD MY GALLBLADDER REMOVED AND THE DOC FOUND ENDOMETRIOSIS ON LEFT OVARY. I WENT THROUGH THREE GYNOS AND FOUR DIFFERENT BIRTH CONTROL PILLS TO CONTROL SYMPTOMS. NONE WORKED. I REFUSED TO TRY LUPRON INJECTION FOR FEAR OF MIGRAINES. FOUND A NEW DOCTOR WHO FELT I NEEDED TO HAVE A PARTIAL HYSTORECTOMY. HE REMOVED EVERYTHING ACCEPT MY RIGHT OVARY. I CAME HOME 4 DAYS LATER ON TOP OF THE WORLD! IT'S ONLY BEEN 4 WEEKS BUT I FEEL LIKE IT WAS THE RIGHT CHOICE. I HAVE HAD A FEW ANXIETY ATTACKS THAT THE DOC SAID ARE RELATED TO THE OPERATION AND HORMONAL IMBALANCES. I HAVE HIGH HOPES.

| Comments: | I am 36 years old and have had more pain since I have had my children. I have consulted doctors who haven't given me a concrete diagnosis but I feel I fit into the symtoms I read here. It was suggested that I start Lupron, and from what I understand that will put you into pre-menopausal stages. (I have 2 beautiful, healthy children and I am not planning on having anymore.) In conjunction, they want to give me pregestron to offset the hotflashes. This is also only a temporary solution. I find it to be on and off with pain. Somedays I have a hard time trying to walk and others it is one sided. Intimacy is a challenge when it hurts so bad that you cant get past the pain and discomfort. I was told to try Avlimil, which can help some-
Thank you for having this site available for women to hear others in the same situation. I noticed alot of very young girls. What is a good sight to also get "medical information"? |

| Comments: | I wonder why a hysterectomy is the only answer for Endometriosis? I was never diagnosed. I had a lap. and was not told about the endo. 10 months later because of severe pain I had the surgery again and woke up with a complete hysterectomy. Now I worry about taking Premarin and about bone loss. I have shrunk a half an inch. I was only 34 when I had the hysterectomy, I am now 40. Fortunately I had my children when I was much younger but I do feel cheated that my second husband and I never had a chance to have a child. I would encourage woman to explore other options before consenting to have a hysterectomy.
Thanks for the opportunity to tell a little part of my story and for this website that lets me know that I'm not alone in this. |

| Comments: | Hi - my name is Kelly and I have suffered with endo for 20 years. I have had several surgeries, including a partial hysterectomy in 1997 and was back in for surgery again in 2002 and now believe it has returned yet again. I have had it on my bladder, colon, appendix, ovaries, tubes, etc. Am looking forward to talking with someone before I go insane. Thanks and I look forward to finding a way to talk with someone.
Sincerely, Kelly |

| Comments: | Hi. I'm 39 years old and was diagnosed with endo. about 9 years ago but in pain for 20 years. I am also a DES daughter. My pain varies from day to day but never goes away. I have had 7 surgeries since the age of 18. I rely on prescription pain medicine to get through life. I suffer in silence because family and friends don't understand. My doctor tells me that I have the type of body chemistry that makes adhesions. I don't want to have anymore surgeries. I have become a vegetarian, take alot of supplements and hoping one day I will be free of this nightmare. Good luck and good health to everyone. |

| Comments: | Hi all endo sufferers, I too am one. I was diagnosed in 1999, but had symptoms from about age 16. I am now 38. October 2001 I had excision surgery, but since then pain and symptoms have been increasing. I have pain every day, but get a really severe pain peak about every 90 days, so I guess that is the point when my endo cysts burst and bleed, starting again the neverending cycle.
To all sufferers, stay positive - I know it's hard, I've been there too. On the bad days rest, and on the not so bad days fit in as much living as possible. God Bless |

| Comments: | hi, i am 30 years old and have been dealing with this lovely little "friend" of ours since i was 13. I have had 7 laparoscopy's, and at 27 i had my uterus and cervix removed, leaving my ovaries which i was told were healthy. In August of 03, i had a pain in my right side that left me unable to ove. I assumed it was a cyst but after having a ct scan was told i had a "large mass" in my abdomen. When they went in, my left ovary was the size of a grapefruit and was engulfed my this tumour, which thankfuly came back not cancer. My right ovary they tell me is the size of an orange but they left in in because it is "still working". I have been in pain off and on since my surgery. I thought because they did a laperotomy(the same procedure they use for the hysterectomy) that that was the reason for my pain, just taking a while to heal. Well it has been 11 weeks and i still have the heating pad on my right side every night as well as taking tylenol like they are candy.They wanted to keep my ovary in for at least two years because they said it is a whole new can of worms with hormone replacement therapy, and since i am only 30, they thought i was to young for that just yet. My thoughts are, what difference will 2 years make except put me through more pain and then inevitably another major surgery? They said i have a large amount of scar tissue from the endo and i am not sure but doesn't it cause more scar tissue every time they open you up again? I have one child, who is 8. there are times when i get down because he does not nor will he ever have a sibling. Adoption is not an option because there are so many times i have to rely on family just to look after him. Hospital stays have been so frequent i couldn't do that again to another child. I had a little girl before my son, but she was pre mature, and only lived for a couple of hours. I also had an incompetant cervix which caused her pre mature birth. Female body parts have not been a very pleasent experience with me. I am just thankful i had a boy and he will never have to go through any of this himself. So now i sit and wait, again to see what they (the doctors) are going to do this time.I am told that even when they remove my ovary, the endo that is attached to my other organs can give me problems. Thanks for listening. It is great to have a site that you can speak with people who understand. |

| Comments: | Hello fellow endo survivors!
It's amazing how I look at sites like this, and other endo support sites, and see how many women of all ages are suffering from this disease. Yet, you don't hear much about it in the public eye. I wish so many others were educated about it. It's frusturating when people don't understand why we are in so much physical pain, why we pop pain killers like it's an addiction, why we have to call off at work, why we can't go out with our friends on the weekends, etc. It's nice to have sites like this where I can find support in other women who know why I'd rather stay home scrunched up in a ball with my bottle of vicodin than go out dancing. I'd rather go dancing, though. |

| Comments: | I am 34 with three children and was diagnosed with endometriosis and endomyosis two weeks ago. I am currently recovering from surgery. At this point the doctor only cleaned things up. No hysterectomy yet, but I know that is a possibility. Even though I am blessed with three children, it is a difficult thing to accept. |

| Comments: | I have posted before but it has been a while and I wanted to update my status. It has been over 4 years that I have had endo. I am due for my 4th surgery next month. My last surgery was 8 months ago. In that last surgery the endo has spread all over my bladder. My badder was also attached to other organs by my adhesions. After the surgery things felt much better infact I felt better then I had in a long time, but gradualy over time things have continued to get worse and pain is worse therefore that is why I am due for another surgery. I have my good days and bads, sometimes dealing with the emotional side of things are harder then dealing with the actual pain. |

Im now considering asking them about the drugs Lupron - Synarel - & Zoladex and if I can be treated with them. Thank you for ur site and the ability to talk to other suffers - some times ur made 2 feel like a freak of nature with this disease - but I now know of a good site that I will pass on to the friends I have who suffer as well. |

| Comments: | I enjoyed looking at all of the personal stories. I had endo for quite some time and on Sept. 26 that all ended. I had a total hysterectomy. The endo was on my bowel and there was quite a bit of it. Keep doing what you are doing as far as information and personal stories for those of us who had to take that big step and felt alone. Keep it up.

| Comments: | Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with endo back in June on 2001 after many trips to the ER. I had had 5 pap smears and exams in two weeks. They could not find what was making me pass out at my job. I worked in retail so I was constantly on my feet. One day, I was folding clothes, I passed out right in front of the store and my co-manager. That when they decided to do a lap on me. In the middle on July, I had the surgery. I was in the hospital for four days before coming home and staying home for two weeks. I always had problems with my period like irregular, heavy and painful. My husband has been the greatest throughout all of this.
We wanted to start trying to have a baby. I tried for two years before buying those Clear Plan Ferility Monitors and test strips. Well, to make a long story short, I am five months pregnant. Through a routine ultrasound, I was diagnosed having a bicornial uterus. My doctors told me that the baby is fine and I may go early and have to had a c-section. Oh well. There is hope out there for everyone. I am only 24 years old and have been married for 4 years. My husband is very happy that we were able to conceive. Maybe the monitor was the best thing that I had bought for myself. Please let me know how everyone is doing and feel about my story. Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions or comments. |

| Comments: | On June 24, 2003, I had a total abdominal hysterectomy, at the age of 34 because of "endo". I totally agree that there should be more funding in finding the "real cause" of it, not just "what they think may cause it". And then find a cure for it. It is a terrible thing to have to have this problem day in and day out. I was very lucky to have found a GREAT dr (who has been a ob/gyn for over 40 yrs, so he has seen this ALOT) It took me a long time (and many dr's to find him) He is my "endo angel" NO WOMEN SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE IN PAIN ALL THE TIME BECAUSE OF THIS!!!!!!! |
