endometriosis pain, surgery, infertilityFrom: Angel (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue Jan 26 10:37:23 1999
I am new here, I have never posted a message before - but for whatever reason, today I feel compelled after reading some of your stories. I am 28 yrs.old, happily married since July of 1997 - started trying almost immediately since I knew I had endo to get preg. in Jan. 98, got preg. May 98, miscarried 4 days after my 1st wedding anniv. in July 98 - and had MANY problems since. My periods are so bad that I am in bed for at least two days - and after 10 years with the same ob/gyn who only wanted to give me pain medication and not address any of my questions/problems, I am finally under the care of a R.E. - I had my first laporoscopy in 1993 and am now having another on Monday, Feb. 1st, 1999. My original due date for my pregnancy was Feb 10th. As this date approaches, I feel like I am getting more, and more depressed. After my miscarriage in July, my periods were 39 and 36 days apart when before the miscarriage I was pretty regular at 28-29 days. My ob/gyn put me on Clomid for Nov, Dec and Jan (changed doctors in dec) - the R.E. followed my entire cycle in Jan. 99 - gave me a shot to induce ovulation when he measured the follicles on my ovary - but unfortunatley, I am getting cramps so I guess I am not pregnant this month either. Since no pregnancy, He suggested I have the Lap. surg. b/c he wants to follow up on the results from the HSG test (dye through the tubes) which found something funny on the left tube. So surgery is to look at that and see how the endo has developed over the last few years since my last surgery. Anyone out there have these problems too? If so, have you conceived and actually had a full term pregnancy? I am so scared that I will never have a child and my depression and tears just get worse. I don't know what to do. I am doing everything the doctor tells me and I am still not getting pregnant. Could it be my hormone levels? Is there a blood test that can determine this? Sorry to go on and on, I am just scared and I don't have anyone who understands endo let alone the pain of infertility and the loss of a baby. HELP ME!!!! thanks, angel
