Hi Melissa
I was also recently diagnosed with endo due to surgery to remove a very
large mass and an ovary. I too am almost 26, but most of the time my
body feels like its 86 or something. I can relate to the pain being so
intense that it is taking a toll on your job. I had been out of work
since mid Dec and just went back this week to now missing time again.
I personally have not tried Lupron because I did not likt what I have
heard about it. However I guess it for some people it may help? Maybe
it would be worth doing some research on the side effects.
I hope they will be able to find something that will help & I hope your
job will be understanding.
