Hello, Since I had my daughter 2 1/2 yrs ago I've had nothing but problems gynocologically. First the pain during and after intercourse, then weird and painful periods and spotting in between periods. And then in the last 6mths I have been diagnosed with having ovarian cysts. First they were just fluid filled, then complex. Went to the ER the other night bc I felt like I had knives stabbing in my pelvicarea. Doctordid a ctscan and ultrasound and thankfully there were no cyststhistime.So I followed up with my gynoa few daysafter and he said he thinks we should do exploratory lap surgery bc he thinks I may have endometriosis. Between the weird and some what painful periods, the constant monthly pain and aches and shooting and stabbing pains in my pelvic and ground that sometimes hurt so bad it makes me cry and double over in pain and has even made me faint twice now, extreme stomach bloating, the urgency to urinate often and slight back pain. I don't know a lot about Endo but I've done research and all my symptoms fit and make sense. It's just confusing bc here I was being told for mths now it was from my cysts but now there are no cystsand the pain and other symptoms are just getting worse and worse. I am only 25 and have been blessed with one child. Haven't been able to concieve again, I'm in good health but this is just agonizing. I'm constantly tired and worn out from the pain and stress. For the past three wks it has been so hard to function on a daily basis. I'm having a very hard time even taking care of my home and my two yr old daughter. I'm very worried for what the future may hold for me. If anyone has any advice, encouraging words or has been diagnosed with Endo and experienced or is experiencing what I am...please respond. Thank you for your time. Oh and I have also been on BC for a few months now.
