hello,
I am so worried and sorry that I posted again, but in a desperate situation. I just am having so much pain in my whole body, but mostly my legs suffer every single day. I can't walk good bc it seems like my knees are so stiff and pain stays behind them. I know that I have had two Laporoscopies and both comfirmed Endo. I just wondered if it could possibly have gone down my legs. I watched as a girl had it happen to her on Mystery dx the other night. I was shocked.
Is there anyone out there that has or had Endo and now has these symptoms too. I am trying to get to a good doc.,but don't know who I should see. I have been to NL, NS and nothing was even brought up @ Endo. so I didn't even think it could be possible. I just would like to know who I should see and what I should do to ease my pain. I lay in bed so much bc I can't do anything. I just want to get back to living. I am only 44 and have two young boys that need their mom. I can't even be touched it hurts and I remember the suffering I did when I had my monthly or should I say sometimes every 6 mos. I would have one and I would faint whenever it hit. I mean literally anywhere I was. My dad has even had to retrieve me out of the shower after I had fallen to the bottom. It was awful. I was lucky and blessed to have my boys...it must have been The Lord's Will that is all I can say.
Should I see a Gyno or a Gastro.? I am just lost and don't know what to do. It seems like I just need an MRI in my hip and maybe lower spine..I guess. I have had a Lumbar and nothing showed but Arthritis. Now, the rest of me is a mess. I have to confess that I have been dx with: Cervical,Lumbar & Hip/Joint DDD, Spinal Stenosis, Myofascial Pain,Cervicalgia, Spondylosis,Fibro and the list goes on CM(Chiari Malformation), Venous Angioma and ohhhh. I just know I am suffering and I really don't think I have all of this. I know I am not a doc, but something is seriously wrong. HELP!!
Take care all and GOD BLESS... Karen
