Hi Sara,

I have endo too and im starting menopause. I havent had a period since March. Like you, i have had several surgeries. I have been pain-free for awhile until very recently. Out of the blue, i had an endo attack. I dont know if i popped a cyst or im just ovulating. Im still sore and the pain comes and goes. It still feels very tender the pelvic area. I just pray to god that everything is ok inside and thats its not serious. I dont know whats worse the anxiety or the pain.

You can email me at: syossetgal@yahoo.com if you want.

Sue
