-- Hi Karen,

I know how you feel. I'm going through the same thing right now. I was just chatting withe someone who sent me to this board. Boy am I glad she did.

It's hard to deal with constant pain. I've had the Lupron treatment, which did hardly anything for me. Pain killers just make me high now. I've had the Laproscopy "clean up" and that did hardly anything. Now, I'm going in for the hysterectomy. I just can't keep taking sleeping pills all day and night and not live anymore. And that's the only way for me to get through the pain.

I finally decided to have the hysterectomy to start on some kind of recovery path.

Now, my husband (who was so supportive and concerned up to today) decided that his cabin in the woods is more important than my health. He's making me wait longer for the hyst and make sure the insurance covers it or we can forget it. His words were something like, "...sleep for the month until we find out. Unless you don't care about getting our house in the woods..." I could have killed him at that moment. He's been so great until today. I mean really wonderful. Now this. I didn't need this too.

I saw my psychiatrist today too. He agrees that I need to have this done, after we discussed why I want to go through with it. I'm getting more and more depressed every day I live with the pain. It never lets up. Only some days the sharp pains are less. But the nagging dull pain and pressure is always there. Almost everyday the sharp pains are on top of it.

Well, talk about going on and on. I guess I got you beat. Thanks for posting. At least I know I'm not alone in this insanity.

You take care. I'm here if you want to chat. My Yahoo! IM name is: Kristin1Wilson

God Bless You All!
