Hi there

yes to all of the above!!!!


I haven't had my lap yet and therefore no diagnosis but I am sure it is endo that I have as it doesn't show up on any scans!!!

Are you booked in for a laparoscopy

I was just wondering... does anybody else have a big increase i pain with exercise? or even being on your feet? or stress?  I feel like doctors keep telling me that pain from exercise wouldn't happen from endo...but I don't know, I feel like it might, but I have no idea how.  Does anyone know anything about that?

If you want to try Lupron and add-back and do not have insurance there is patient assistance and if you do have insurance you can go to
http://www.endofacts.com/ and search coupon. I was able to save at least $70 with the coupon.

Hope this helps,
