HEATHER, I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL. IF I WERE IN YOUR SHOES, I WOULD GO DIRECTLY TO A SPECIALIST. SEND YOUR CASE FILE AND SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY. DOESN'T HURT TO TRY. I HAVE BEEN AWARE OF MY ENDO FOR 15 YEARS, HAD 3 LAPS AND STILL PLAYING THE GAME. I JUST FINISHED 6 MONTHS OF LUPRON WHICH WERE HELL. THE LUPRON REMOVED THE ENDO PAIN, BUT ADDED SIDE EFFECTS THAT WERE 10 TIMES WORSE THAN THE ENDO. EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT, BUT THIS IS WHAT I EXPERIENCED. DECEMBER 9TH I AM HAVING SURGERY IN CALIFORNIA WITH DR. ANDREW COOK. THIS IS A BIG PRODUCTION SINCE I LIVE IN VIRGINIA. MY MOTHER IS FLYING WITH ME FROM OHIO. MY HUSBAND'S PARENTS ARE FLYING DOWN FROM MASSACHUSETTS TO WATCH OUR 2 BOYS DURING THE DAY. I WILL BE GONE FOR 10 DAYS. I WILL BE HAVING THE EXCISION SURGERY WHICH I'VE NEVER HAD BEFORE. MY PREVIOUS 3 LAPS HAVE BEEN WITH THE LASER VAPORIZATION. I SENT MY FILES TO DR. COOK AND DR. ALBEE IN GEORGIA. BOTH FACILITIES REVIEWED MY FILES AND GAVE THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS. I FEEL BOTH ARE GREAT PLACES TO TURN TO FOR ADVICE AND I PERSONALLY LIKED THE WAY DR. COOK'S PROGRAM WORKED. KEEP YOUR CHIN UP AND KEEP CHUGGING ALONG. ANN
