I felt like an addict when I went to the ER twice over the weekend because they acted like I was just ther for hte pain shot (HELLO!!!!WOULD I BE SPENDING MY ENTIRE WEEKEND IN THE ER FOR A SHOT THAT ONLY LASTS A FEW HOURS) I am in serious pain and I feel like the doctors thin I am crazy. I had one tell me that there is no way I am in that much pain, and send me home without an exam or anything....There should be more infor on this disease for the doctors that have women come into their offices everydfay complaining of the pain that it causes...I am not an addict....I AM IN SERIOUS PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was diagnosed about 7 years ago...had the laparoscopy and hormone shots and
a lot of pain for about 2 years...I stopped having the pain for a little while
(about 5 years), but it is starting up again.  I had 3 miscarriages and 1 tubal
 pregnancy since 1998, and my most recent miscarriage was in February.  Since
February, my periods have been HORRIBLE.  I have seen 3 doctors to determine
what the heck is wrong and all they want to say is the endometriosis is starting
 back up again.  The doctor I saw most recently said to me that there is no way
 I could be in as much pain as I say I am.  I am fed up.  I just spent my entire
Memorial Day weekend in the emergeny room ( 2 times in 2 days) and I have to go
back to that same doctor tomorrow.  I am fed up.  I desperately want to have
another child, but the slim chance of me ever getting pregnant again is starting
to not be as important as getting rid of the pain.  Seriously considering
a hysterectomy and i am only 29.  Any advice from someone who's been there?????
HELP PLEASE
