was your doctor able to ''unfreeze'' things? I don't think you should need an open incision (wide) to unfreeze things. This is a situation that the experts see all the time.

Have you seen someone like Dr Robbins in Maine? endoexcision.com

The Center for Endo in Atlanta helped me, centerforendo.com

The CEC does free evaluations, I don't know about Dr Robbins. There is also Dr Iris Orbuch in NYC.

E-mailing or calling doctors will get you started...there's help out there!

getting a 2nd or 3rd opinion is a very good idea.

Oh, and have you heard of the Endometriosis Research Center? They have a chat board, and a doctor recommendation site.
