Didn't get a new date yet. This is the second time my surgery was
postponed. The first time I was sick and they wouldn't clear me for
surgery. I am wondering if maybe surgery is not the answer. I keep
trying to get it done, and something keeps preventing me from having it.
I am going to see another doctor to get another opinion. I have been on
all different birth control pills, and I refuse to go on Lupron. I
don't know what other options I have?
Anyone know an endo specialist on Long Island? I heard of Dr. Husami in
NYC, but I don't think I'm up to the travel by myself.
Thanks for listening,
