Re: Does anyone know of an Endometriosis Specialist w/in Kaiser Permanente?From: Alisha (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed Jul 22 16:47:09 2009
I had the surgery over a year ago...didnt help me at all. He says removed what he could but couldnt remove any around my bladder. When it becomes inflamed it hits my sciatic nerve and I can barely walk. Im just living with the pain. I pretty much gave up on looking for help. Only Kaiser takes kaiser. Outside doctors do not except it. I can not afford to see a specialist outside of Kaiser. i am just an optimistic person...and everyday that im in pain, I think...it could be worse. Its not cancer, and im not dying...so thank GOD for that!

I am also in Southern California and am considering making the trip up North to see Andrew Cook and Endo Specialist but since I have Kaiser, the surgery will cost me between $20-30K >>>
