NEED ADVICE

Since January I have been having abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, peeing constantly, I can't half eat, my back has been killing me, light headed, tired, and irregular periods. I went to the doctor and they checked my thyroid level and they said it was fine and told me to go to the gynecologist. They checked me, nothing. Scheduled an ultrasound, nothing. Said it was endometriosis, gave me some pills, said take these for 3 weeks and if it doesn't help come back. Went back 3 weeks later schedules a laparoscopy, assured me it's endometriosis. Come out of surgery, leaves a message with my husband, everything is normal again, NOTHING!!! Nurse comes and says go back to them in 2 weeks for checkup. 4 days later still a little sore from the surgery but no more than expected, but all my original problems are still there. I don't know what to do! It's March and I don't know how much longer I can be patient for an answer. Anyone?.....

Was the surgeon an Endo specialist? Some regular gynos don't know Endo unless it's what they have seen before. Endo comes with some many colors and can be missed with someone with less experience. Also there is adenomyosis which is similar yet not the same as Endo but can have similar symptoms. I would find an Endo specialist to go to. I can lead you in that direction if need be let me know
