Hi, Sorry to hear that. Dr.'s are people and people can be just plain stupid. Think of it as a learning experience. I was there too and I'm only 22 now. I even threatened my old Dr. for putting me on Lupron so young without warning me of the effects. It worked, she got me right in for a bone density check that I did not have to pay for. Finding a Dr. that does Endo all day is the best bet. At times I feel like a number, but they know best. Once I had a Dr. do a lap, say they would remove endo. I woke up and they didn't remove it because they were not comfortable doing the surgery. You think they could figured that out before I went into surgury. Because of it, I have to wait another year before someone could remove it I now go to a specialist. Even if cost is higher, you spend a ton anyway going to reg. Dr.'s over and over because they have no answers. Good Luck!
