HI Kae,
   I feel sorry that you feel you have to make a decision because it would be
a very hard decision. All I can tell you is my sister had endo so bad at 19
they had to do a complete hysterectomy and thought they might have to do a
culostomy becuase everything was attached to each other I know yours isn't as
bad as hers thank god but she will never have kids ever. All I;m saying is
maybe you should ask your Dr and say hey should I becuase I don't want the endo
to mess me up where I can't have kids. I think if I were you I would have my
kids now and not wait, as long as you are sure that this endo could make it
where you can't because it's not something you can't go back and undo if you do
decide to wait. I am thankful I had one kid before my female stuff went haywire.
I know my sister would have had kids if she could have. She's 43 now and is
happy in her life but I'm sure she feels bad that she never could because of
the endo.I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers that everything works out for
you and I' know things will work out for you. Good luck to you and I pray for
you going back on lupron because that shot is from hell boy. Well Good luck to
you and hope you have a HAPPY NEW YEAR. Good luck
                                          PH
