Hi Annon~

Please don't worry too much if you can. It will be OK. Your right there is a lot of information coming from so many degrees of this disease. That doesn't mean that everyone will always be at the same place or have the same experiences at the same time. The best we can do is share what we all know and learn from those common denominators of these experiences.

I am sorry you are faced with this. The key is to keep managing it and not let it go. That will make things so much worse and the last thing you will need are bigger problems down the road. There is no cure but there are good ways to manage it. It starts with a very good Endo specialist who can navigate you through the various options available.

If you do not feel comfortable with a certain Dr. you can keep looking until you find that good one you have a great relationship with who will listen and together you can both come up with some treatment options that work for you. Where you are right now is a common and scary place but I promise there are options available. The pain can be managed with your Dr. and surgery if needed and if they can't do anymore a good regimn with a pain clinic can help you through those times until your next answer comes.

This forum has so many wonderful women who have so much to offer that you will never need to do it alone. Sometimes it can get overwhelming, but let's get you to someone that can help you. I am not sure where you are at but if you feel comfortable soon posting that, I am sure you will start receiving some very helpful leads to some very wonderful Dr's.

You hang in there, but please don't let it go. OK? PS...Dr. Daiter has been on the forum a lot here latley maybe there is something he can answer for you as well off or on the forum. Good Luck!!

Thinking of you...
