Feel free to email me. Sorry this >was soo long. > >-- >Softball > The wierd thing is that I'm reading this and it is like you are teling my story. They just discovered my endo and it is already in the advanced stage. I wasn't ready to have surgery so they put me on Seasonle. It started out just fine until I couldn't control my emotions anymore. I would cry for no reason at all and then I would just snap at whoever was around me. I went to the doctor and the pill can cause depression. Once I was put on an anti-depressent I was fine, until now that is. I just started with those sharp shooting pains that you are talking about. They weren't that bad at first and I really didn't think much of it until last week they just wouldn't go away. I went to my doctor and I'm having a laporotomy on Wednesday. It is something that needs to be done or the pain won't go away. I'm just confused because I'm only 19 and things like this shouldn't be happening to me. It's hard to think about not having kids but I've found that it's best to just meet these problems head on and become best friends with your doctor. You're going to be glad they're there for you.
