Hi Kelly

I've been in pain management since this past Sept. - please don't be afraid! My pain doctor has helped me a great deal, I don't know what I would have done otherwise. I'm waiting for my insurance to change so I can go out of network to a specialist.

Here are a couple really good links that explain how it works better than I can: http://www.painfoundation.org they have an excellent publication, "Treatment Options: A Guide for People Living with Pain" it's a pdf download: http://www.painfoundation.org/Publications/TreatmentOptions2006.pdf

You are doing the right thing to find another doctor - I hope this new one works out better. Have you considered going to one of the endo excision specialists? Finding a doctor who can thoroughly remove the disease may even improve your chances of having a baby - it should certainly help you feel better at the least.

Good luck!
