Maggie,

I'm sorry you continue to suffer through this. I was thinking...when I sent you that list of doctors who test hormones, you said none of them were really close to you, maybe you could start with calling a compound pharmacy, find a pharmacy near where you live and they could help you find a doctor to test you and get you some progesterone? Do you have something you can take for your pain in the meantime? I was having terrible back spasms and could not sleep at all last night. I think sometimes we get pinched nerves in there, because everything is so inflamed and irritated.

It's worth a try....I don't know if any of these pharmacies are near you either, but you could call them and ask if there is one closer to you, then ask about a doctor. I just don't want you to lose hope if you see another doctor and they refuse to test your hormones too. If all the GI stuff comes back clean, it's got to be endo/hormone/Lupron related. Just don't give up if you don't get the help you need from the docs you are going to see. It took me forever to find my GP, who literally saved me so much suffering. I think we all need a good doc who can balance our hormones naturally, and a good excision specialist to get the junk out of us! Hope you feel better, sorry you are feeling bad.
