Yes. i've had pain for months, if you look at my posts, my body is just shutting down, a different area every month it seems.

MY doctor did the novasure (feb 02,2008) and did a laproscopy to search for the pain. He didn't find a reason, I brought up the pain again at my follow up and he said no reason for the pain go see a gastro.

This doctor I found on line is a Dr. Echenberg,allentown,pa It sounds like he has a team of doctors, gastro, obgyn, urologist that can look at everything I've been through. I've had all these doctors in the past 8 months, but they don't seem to talk & get an overall picture, I'm sure I'm getting annoying to all my local doctors, but this guy is 1 1/2 hours away & he speciallizes in women who can't get answers.

I'm looking forward to his appointment the first appointment is 2 to 3 hours.

thanks I was thinking the endometrial lining was distroyed during novasure so if he wanted to do another biopsy, there would be a possiblilty of serious damage.

thanks for answering Diane
