Dear Angels,

I am having a new dilemma!(nothing new about that!!!). I was on Depo for over 2 years now..so i didn't have a period all this time. But the pain was as bad as it coud get all thro this period. Now my doctor asked me to take a break from Depo for a few months so that my body gets some estrogen back since my bones are going too weak. She says i have to give a break for at least 2 cycles. So i stopped the depo. Now even though i haven't begun to bleed, the pain has come back with a vengeance. Its so horrible that i feel totally utterly helpless. I saw my doctor about this and she says my only option in surgery is a procedure called Pre Sacral Neurectomy. In normal words it is a procedure where all pain receptive nerves in the lower abdominal are cut so that pain signals cannot be sent to the brain. She says only a few doctors have the expertise in this area and honestly i have read a horde of possible treatment options for Endo but never came across this. Has anyone of you heard ! about it? If so can you tell me if it has any drawbacks! I am so horrified about this entire thing since no amount of painkillers are helping the pain effectively. So i am wondering if i do have to go in for this option, But before that i wanted to put in a word to find out all the possible info i can on this. Thanks to you all for listening b'cos i know without you all i would have given up a long time back. You arealways in my prayers. Love and hugs

Geetha
