I just wanted to give you a little comfort.  I went to see my gyno this week and I am going to have laproscopic surgery next week.  I think that every woman's body is different and responds to things in different ways, however I was in and am still in alot of pain( I am currently on Darvocet and Anaprox). I find that what works best is rest, heating pads, drinking lots of water, and no caffiene, and just try to not stress about this until you kow what it is .  I've known for years that I had endometriosis, however have just now taken the steps neccessary to start to try and heal.  No matter what the Doctor says, think it all through and maybe even get a second opinion.  I hope that you have your boyfriend's support, I know that I am blessed to have such an understanding Husband.  You also have this forum to help and support you.  Good luck and I'll add you to my prayers.
