Three years later I had a large endometrioma removed and now, less than 6 months later it appears I have another one. They are growing in the exact spot my ovary was. i have a helluva time convincing the radiologist that it is not an ovary. I still have the right ovary and a new doc is trying to convince me that this is the source of my probs. Seeking more opinions, but the pain is outrageous. Had the advice of trying Lupron, might get better in 2-6 months. Only a man would say that. My hubby is sympathetic, but it's nice to know I'm not alone. I think I need a zipper on my bellybutton.
