i have been suffering with endo for the past 7 yrs it started after the birth of my 1st child. i have had to have 3 operations to remove endo & adhesions from my internal organs esp my tubes, which i was advs were badly torn. in 2002 was told by my doc that the chances of falling pregnant again was very unlikely as my tubes were too damaged. So u could imagine our surprise to find myself pregnant again a few mnths later. Was told as was pregnant this would "CURE" the endo WAS THEY WRONG!!! It is back with a vengence the pain is more severe then ever. seen specialist today who has advs the nxt step is to start a course of injections to slow & eventually stop my overies from working this meaning i have to take HRT , the nxt step will have to be a full hystorectomy. i guess the moral of this is i have two beautiful children dispite the odds so stay postive u never know what the future may bring.

my thoughts are with everyone who suffers, as this disease takes over ur life & causes more then pysical pain but also emotional pain, it puts a strain on any relationship & sadly this has caused my partner & myself to separate on several occasions as he didn't understand the pain this causes thankfully we are now back together & he is trying to support me the best he can.

i will now see what the future holds i just want the pain to end.. stay strong everyone lynette >Well everyone... this is Angie... i wrote not to long ago about having
