I am sorry that you are going through all of the pain, surgeries, etc. I
myself am having a hysterectomy in early sept for adenomyosis (and
pelvic congestion).I also have stage 3 endo. I do not have answers for
you. But, I thought I would refer you to a great place where you could
get support. Have you been to the Hyster Sisters forum? If I were you I
would go there and post as there are many women there who have similar
situations to you. Good luck! Ada
