Hi, my name is Danielle and this is my first time posting. I've always
had pelvic pain for as long as I can remember, at around 19 I was told
that I have endometriosis. The dr. said it was a mild case and pretty
much disregarded me. In the years since I have had 4 laps and 2
c-sections (both children were concieved w/fertility meds) This last lap
I had the dr. said I had severe adhesions, that my uterus and bladder
were fused together and that I would need a hystorectomy in order to
aleviate the pain caused from the adhesions and the endo. I had a 2nd
opinion yesterday and that dr. was very wishy washy and threw it back
to me, well do you want to have it done? When I said no he suggested
lupron or depo. I have tried it all, and I no longer wish to be forced
into menopause and how would that help w/ the adhesions. I'm very
confused and in pain daily. That is the other thing no dr. I see will
address the pain issues, whenever I ask for pain meds I always feel as
if I'm some kind of freak pill seeker.
Anyway I found this site and really hope to hear from some women that
can understand.
