Hi Angela,
Glad to help. As a sufferer, I know what its like. Its all rather
daunting.
Where are you based?? US or Australia?
Don't distress, no use in worrying without really knowing. And besides,
I've had endo for more than 20 years and even tho I have certainly
suffered, I have coped and still managed a family and full on career.
You have to get yourself focused and try and remain positive about the
whole thing.
Write to me anytime Angela> Sometimes just talking to someone who knows
makes a huge difference.
Let me know where you are and perhaps i can assist in a reccomendation
for a doctor.
Kindest regards
