accepting pain and improper treatmentFrom: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon Sep 17 20:42:54 2007
seems to me that a big part of this disease is accepting pain and treatment that is not the best. Endo causes so much pain and discomfort that most doctors do not understand. Sadly, we learn to "put up with it" and "suck it up" for lack of a better phrase. This leads to acceptance of pain and discomfort that is not acceptable. We are also treated by others in a manner that is unacceptable. I feel like a big part of overcoming endo is learning how to stand up for yourself and be treated properly - with respect and dignity. I am re-learning that the way to live life is without pain, and with respect and caring from others. Anything else is unacceptable, and should not be taken. Good luck to all of you. Keep pushing for answers. Never give up. Trust your instincts, you know your body better than anyone. Don't let anyone treat you like it is "in your head" and you are a "head case". You are not. This is real. Don't forget it! Wishng you all pain free and happy days.
