    About Me

    I have been battling female conditions for over ten years from ovarian to cysts to now endometriosis. Which makes me think that I've been battling endometriosis for over ten years just not diagnosed. I have a wonderful husband who understands and a beautiful seven year old daughter.

    • I’m With You

      From redangel1 June 15

      I am so sorry you have to go through this. It's not fair and I totally get it on no one wanting to "lap it again" and find it's back! Sending you lots of hugs and prayers your way! One suggestion...if you haven't done it already. Call the University Medical School near you and ask who is the Endo "guru" and get some names that way. (Maybe you did that, but ask for other names then) There are many docs out there who will help! I had to just keep looking until I found him. (Of course, I will let you know how my appt Tues goes and I may be in your same boat and you can tell me the same advice! LOL) Hang in there my dear...

      Oh Boy! I feel your pain! Had the same thing done on Thursday! I felt so crappy after. They did not see anything that big of a deal. One polyp and they biopsied a piece of tissue in my stomach. I am just waiting to go see my endo doc who did my last lap in 04 in 2 weeks. So..in the meantime..I wait. Sending you lots of encouragement and personally, I wouldn't do the camera thing. If all was clear, I am sure it is fine. Hang in there!

      From redangel1 May 16

      OMG! You could be writing my story! I am scheduled to go to a GI doc on the 30th at the request of my OB/GYN to rule out anything with my stomach. I did Lupron when I went through 2 years of very intensive IVF treatments to conceive my lil miracle. He is 13 months. Since his birth my PMS is worse than ever and I have had at least 4 months of 2-3 week bleeding lately. They tested and I am not anemic and last week my pelvic u/s showed no fibroids or cysts. I know my endo pain is not back the way I knew it before but I do suspect it could be back just presenting differently. I can't do BCP b/c I feel ill all the time. Hang in there! I am with ya! What part of Texas? I am in San Antonio.
