I am 26 and was diagnosed with endometrosis only about 2 weeks ago. I have spent what seems like forever trying to find a doctor who would listen to me and not tell me the pain and symptoms were in my head. I finally found one. On my first visit she told me she thought I had endometrosis. I had a laporscope done and was then diagnosed. I was so happy I had a name to go with my suffering. I thought there would finally be an end. I decided to do a search on the Internet to find out more about it. That is how I found this forum and many other helpful information. When I found this forum and read your messages I actually cried. I never realized that everything I was going thru was related. The severe cramps, abdominal pain, pelvic pain, bowel problems, pain in my side, depression, and pain associated with sex. I had no clue it was all tied together with endo. until I read your letters. I feel like I finally have some answers. I am so glad you all posted your letters for people like me to find answers, and to see I am not alone as I have always felt. I feel like I have so much in common with all of you and I don't even know you. It is nice to know that someone out there understands my pain, and my struggle to find someone who will listen. I am so glad I found this forum and read all of your letters, they have answered so many questions. I hope you will accept me as one of your "sisters" even though it sounds like I am just beginning my real struggle with this disease. It has been devastating to learn that this disease has no cure and I could use a shoulder to cry on from time to time. Thanks- Ali
