Hi Tara, I'm just thinking about it right now. I had surgery in October ('05) and had alot of endo removed. My doc put me on continuous Aygestin immediately and I was feeling pretty good until around Christmas time. Now I'm getting back to the chronic pain (although not nearly to the level as pre surgery). When I saw him two weeks ago he doubled my Aygestin dose and said to try that for two months but mentioned that if it doesn't work we may need to discuss Danazol or the dreaded Lupron. I already know how I feel about Lupron so I wanted to try to get as much info on the other options as possible in an effort to avoid having to go there. Thank you for the information! Alyson
