Arlene,

I happen to know someone who went to a doctor and he did a test for endo. This test is not however 100%. Laproscopy is the only way to definately diagnose it. I really do not think it is stress. Some doctors do not believe this disease really exists. My advice to you if her doctor will not discuss other alternatives except stress is to find another doctor. One that will listen to her symptoms and keep an open mind to treatments.
