Hi April I can understand what you are feeling. I have been having pains since 2001 off and on, and then this past march I had a laparoscopy to find the endometriosis. It has been about 3 months since the surgery and my pains are back, more than before. I don't want to get up in the morning and most of the time I can't work due to chronic back and pelvic pain. The surgeon suggested I go on the pill which I wont do for other health reasons, or a shot of Lupron. That I definately wont do because I know my body is way too sensitive. I have found an excision specialist to remove the endo correctly(I pray he finds it all). This is a difficult time for you and it is hard when others do not understand what you are going through. This is a time to take care of yourself and know that this is real. If others don't understand, than go to people who will be supportive of your situation. We are here for you know that. Remember, a good diet is always very beneficial. No caffine, sugar, dairy. there may be others that you want to avoid. Good luck and take it easy. p.s. I know that this is hard advise but I learned not to worry about infertility till later when I was ready. I haven't reached that point yet, but it is one less thing you need on your mind when you are going through all of this. So, don't worry, just take good care of yourself. -N
