no_end_to_endometriosis

I was diagnosed with endometriosis after being miss-Dx for 6 years. One of my laps turned into a major surgery which has since caused more pain than it has done good. I had trouble conceiving a child and getting through the first trimester without miscarrying. I have always been put on low dosed BC due to the endometriosis. I have found for me and most women; that an incorrect dosage of BC in women who suffer from endo (i.e) too high a dose will more than likely be the cause of extreme break through pain prior to and during mid cycle or even worse chronic pain. If you have endo. be sure to discuss the BC levels with your Dr. to find the correct dosage and method right for you. I'm still searching.... Not all are aware of the effects of too high a does or the wrong levels for women affected by endo. The problem with a low dose of BC, although it keeps the pain to bearable levels is that you can become pregnant easily, which this has happened to me 2X both of them eptopic. I've tried them all and the new one that has been prescribed to me is called Nuva-ring.... Has anyone ever tried this method of BC before. Has anyone suffered side effects that are abnormal due to endo? If you women aren't being Dx correctly or the Drs tell you "its all in your head" run to the exit as fast as you can and find the nearest Dr. that practices in this area. Most GPs and Gynos do not. You will go on with pain and be labeled a "drug seeker" eventually. This might make you go insase... SO STOP the insanity, you know yourself and your body better than any Dr will. I've found that being told there was nothing wrong with me for so many years actually caused more trauma to me psychologically. I was actually releived when I was finally Dx correctly, even though I knew I would have to undergo several surgeries and know that even after surgery I would never be rid of endo. There was an answer and I had lots of questions!

I never dreamed it would be possible to have a child after a 4 surgeries for endo, but somehow I mananged and can honestly say I am in love with a short, fat bald guy.
