Yes, I have chronic back pain and have for years because of endo. My endo usually locates on or around my bladder & urethra, so it also causes bladder pain, urinary frequency, and general infection like symptoms. I was regularly tested for bladder infections until years back, my doctor realized during my first and second lap that it was the endo causing it. One good thing, everytime I have a lap, it gives me loads of relief from the back pain and bladder symptoms for quite sometime.
