I'm sorry that I didn't respond sooner but I just (now) saw your post. I feel for you and what you are going through. I have read that minimal endo can cause great amounts of pain for some women, so I am praying that your ordeal is over. I understand how depressing it must be to feel that you haven't (yet) found the cause or cure for your pain.
I have a diagnostic lap sceduled, and I have considered msny times cancelling it. Please let us know how you are doing. Best wishes.
