I would like to know if you are still being plagued with this joint pain and what has become of it. It sounds very similar to me. Diagnosed with endo approx 15 years ago. Numerous treatments and laps to clean things out. About 4 years ago my arms started hurting with my period. Now, all joints hurt and the pain is chronic. It is bearable except the week before my period and the week of my period. The week of my period the pain is severe. My rheumie thinks I have lupus, but I don't really have all the markers for it. I am wondering if I don't have endo in my joints?

Thanks.
