Jen this one is for uFrom: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue Jan 4 11:14:31 2005
Hi Jen, I’m 18 and I have been suffering from horrendous menstrual pain for about 8 years now. When I was 14 I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I have had two laps, lupron, depo, and all kinds of Birth control pills, shots, patches, and creams nothing has helped. I have tried hot baths, hot packs, cold packs, walks, sleeping, and changing my diet. But nothing has helped so far. When I was 14 my doctor told me to have a baby, she said that it would help me, but the more I researched what I had. What she had told me to do didn’t make since. In my case having a baby wouldn’t help me; in fact it could make things worse for me. I will tell you something and this is really hard for me to tell people, when you find out that having a baby isn’t something you and your husband can just decide to do you start think about things like not being able to have a baby and what your boy friend or husband is going to say. When I was 17 I was told that having a baby would be very hard for me. It would have to be planed by my specialist and my boy friend and I. She told me that it would take a long time to do since I have endo very bad. I understand that I’m only 18 but I know what it feels like to be hurt and to lose something or someone that u felt every close too. In July of 2004 I found out that I was about 9 weeks pregnant, I really liked that idea but I didn’t what to tell anyone but my boyfriend until I was farther along. Around the middle of September I miscarried. I lost the one thing I really wanted and I didn’t no what to do. I felt really bad because I didn't tell anyone in my family, and my boyfriend really wanted this baby because his little sister died that same year. So I stared taking pills I overdosed two times. after that my Boy friend left me because he said that it was tomuch forhim to handle. My Doctor won't give any pain killers unless I got to tle hospitel and get shots. This has been the worse experience I have been through. My life has been really stressful but I realize that the more I stress the more I hurt. I started looking for site where there were support groups and I fund one it’s at http://www.theendoclub.com you don’t only have to have endo you can just be having pelvic pain. The women there are very nice and can help you a lot. there support is something everyone can use. They have all different kind of ways to help you. You just post note on the forum and everyone will give u advice or help u in some way. Jen your life is a gift. I'm sure that everyone just wants the best for you. Jen please before you do anything to yourself, please seek some help. I hope I have been help to u and if you need to talk at all my MSN is stephanielucas338@hotmail.com or you can e-mail me anytime you would like. ( sorry it is so long ) Stephanie
