Having a baby won't get rid of your endo. though. That is a myth. It will temporarily stop the pain, but after you have a baby, it will just come back. I need your thought on something? I am having horrific pain where I had my lap. this past Monday and I am out of pain meds. and the only way to get more is to go to the ER again. I don't want to do that, but I hurt. Any thoughts? The other doctor gave me motrin, but that is like candy, it does nothing. Thanks. :O) Keep your chin up!
