Best Wishes to all.
I'll be in touch with my Gyno this week to discuss and see what next
step may be. As for the statement of left-sided endo - I read it on
some ENDO association web site - researchers don't know why but that in
their studies they have noticed that a lot of the time - the pain is
focused on the left side of the body! If I find it again - I will post
it with reference!
As for treatment on ENDO - I have no clue..we'll see what happens...
