Help I'm a newly diagnosed Endo.

Ok, I'm new to this bb and Endo. (What a club to belong to, huh!) I already have 2 children and my husband and I are done with kids. I am on Darvocet for back pain of unknown origin. The back pain has been with me for 7 years now. (I believe from something else other then endo but who knows at this point.) I have had painful periods for only 5 years. I started out having my periods last heavily for 2 weeks at a time about 3 to 4 months ago. I went to my GYN and said that I might have PID but then the test came back a couple weeks after that saying no I didn't. Then he scheduled a lap for possible Endo. This was on June 25th of this year. I started my period again on July 13th and still on it (July 29th). I'm in alot of pain too. I don't know what to expect from all this. Can someone tell me how long after the lap am I suppose to keep having the painful periods that last a life time? Can someone please clue me in period on what to expect from here on out? Do I have to go have a hysterectomy? What do I do now? Do I call my doctor and have him look at me again? I was fine for about 2 weeks after the lap on June 25th I stopped with the pain about 5 days after the lap then fine until the 13th of July. What do I do now? Someone please help me! By the way, I have never had any medical problems at all except the back pain then this. I have 3 sisters and the older 2 having cysts and then precancerous cells, one fine now but the oldest is having pain still. The other sister had PID in high school then she had cysts then Endo then Cervical Cancer, she is in remission as of this moment. I'm so scared and not looking forward a long battle. I'm tried of battles. My oldest child is severely handicapped and has epilepsy then I have a 3 year old. I'm only 27!! Someone please help me! Lori
