Hi, my name is Amy. My friend found this site for me and I am relieved
to find support. I had a hysterectomy five years ago.(Severe
endometriosis) About three years ago I started with some pain in my
lower left side. I also have pain in my lower back. It's been about a
year that the pain has increased. In the past six months I have been to
the ER twice. CT scan shows nothing. The doctors feel that it is
adhesions causing the pain, but they discourage surgery. They pretty
much have the attitude that if I can deal with the pain it's better. I
have a high tolerance for pain and really have not complained about the
pain. When I do many people don't believe me because I am not yelling
out and "acting" like I am in pain. The last trip to the ER the doctor
gave me a prescription for Percocet. I try not to take it unless I am
in a lot of pain. I just would like to find a doctor who listens and
cares. Does anyone know of a doctor in Baltimore, MD? Thanks for
listening.
Amy
