D.N. thanks for your reply. Pain is worst at end of month but I do have daily pain around my bowel movements and with alot of activity and also with bladder voiding. I am on bcp for hrt because I"m allergic to soy and can't tolerate any of the other ones! They did not "see" any endo when they did my lap to remove the adhesions, but NO pathology was done so anything is possible. My gyn has pretty much given up on me and is now sending me to GI.....I wish they would just send me to the general surgeon and get on with it....thanks for you post.....I'm still hoping a dr will come along and respond too!!
