Hi Marcia,
Thanks for your reply. I'm sorry to hear that all of this is happening to
you, especially after you were just starting to feel good. I hope that you
do get better soon. Maybe you are straining yourself too much. It's been
under a couple of months now since my Lap and I still feel surgery pain when
I exercise. OF course, because I have had a Lap, I keep thinking that I'm
endo free but I'm not so It could be just the Endo pain. The Lupron in
going ok. It'll be one month this Friday. I'm trying not to let the side
effects get to me. Take it easy and rest a lot. Drink plenty of water.
Keep me updated. Talk to you soon.
Love, Natalie
