Endo Back& IBS!From: Amanda (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat Jun 14 17:00:24 2003
Hi, I am 23 yrs. old and have Endo and IBS. I have had BC Pills, Aygestin, Lupron (Bad stuff), and three surgeries. The surgery always works best, but my doc. does not want to give me another yet because of scar tissue. I won't ever do Lupron again, and am currently on Mircette, but pain is back worse than ever. I only want one more surgery and I really should save it until I'm ready for a baby, in a few years (so I can). That way it won't be torture trying to get pregnant without the help of BC Pills for pain. **Here's the question: I am also taking Bentyl and Xanax for Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and it helps alot, but I have noticed that I need more than I use to and it isn't great for long term use. I recently heard that Zoloft will help anxiety and that will help the IBS problem. Plus, I also heard that some women have been taking it to relieve severe period cramping. Is this true? That would kill two birds with one stone. I was orginally afraid of taking Zoloft because it's an anti-depressant and I've never been depressed, but it sounds like it could work for me. If anyone has ideas or experiences with this drug, please write me so that I can look into switching to it. Also, any ideas on how to get rid of the pain of Endo without surgery, or Lupron. I just got married and the honeymoon stage is breakig down pretty quick cause of this pain. My doc will give me pain killers, but I don't want to take them too often. I'm a full time student and can't think properly if I take them. I need help with the pain though. Any ideas??? Thanks a bunch! -Amanda
