I did.  It made the pain worse.  I know it works for some but not for me.  It literally made me vomit and sent me to bed for a week at a time.  I tried 3 times.  The only thing that helped me with my endo pain was having it excised by a good surgeon.  I had 3.5 good years and now it's back.  Headed to surgery some time this summer so hopefully I can get it out, get pregnant, and end the suffering for awhile.
As far as I know- a good surgeon is the ONLY option for serious endo pain.
Hope you get some relief.

Many have and its 50/50 it seems like. I have heard a lot of great things about Pelvic floor therapy for Endo.
