The last time I went into the ER for what I thought was endo pain, the
nurse who was admitting me asked me if I ever get the pain that radiates
down the legs, and I was like "Crap, I get that with every ovulation,
and every period" and she said it was due to the nerves being pushed on
due to the swelling in the uterus.. or something along those lines. She
said it was perfectly normal, which I didnt belive, because if it were
normal, then every woman would have it, and it would be easier to find
information on it... so whatever lol .. just letting you know I am as
well suffering from it.
