Danielle,
There are alot of women here that have had endo since their teens. Let
me give you this web site:
http://www.youngwomenshealth.org/endoinfo.html
It is specifically for young women with endo.
Also check out http://www.geocities.com/endovictims/endodocs.html for a
list of patient recommended doctors who are experienced with endo.
Sounds like you might need a visit with someone who really knows what
they are talking about.
There are alot of other things that can cause pelvic pain. I'm not
saying you don't have endo, but that you want to be sure you find a
doctor who knows to rule out other options to narrow down your
diagnosis.
