I'm sorry Stacie!!! I hope you feel better! Are you on any medicine..pain killers? When I was on painkillers I took them so often my body got aimmuned to them. So all I could do was lay on the heating pad"HOT".

Mine has been ok for awhile until I started rode biking w/my dad & the next day I'm so sore..heating pad sore.
 
Stacey -- What's going on?
 
Thanks Ms21vegas!! yep I am immuned to all painpills --but he gave me Vioxx==which for me is my miracle drug. :)

Babsie-I had a cysts rupture (A big one) and the Doc found some other big cysts. I'm having sugery in 2-3 weeks. I have to get "Stents" put in. Do you know what that is??? UGGGG

(Oh read my journal for more info;))
 
thanks girl!!!!! I'm not sure when the surgery is!??!
 
Stacey - How are you doing????
 
Hey Babsie! :) I had my surgery on June 5th. I'm healing pretty good. Still have a light bruise around one incision but dr. said it's okay. I am working out again..and able to have sex. Although that is still sometimes painful. Sucks!!! We have 3 months to get pregnant doc said- then if I'm not in like 5 months I will need surgery again. Uggggg.

HOW ARE YOU???????

Ugh, Stacey I'm sorry to learn this. Keep your chin up. Things will get better. My doctor is giving me 3 months also to get pregnant. We've been having alternative surgeries to get my husband and I by. We're taking Clomid to help our chances. Even with taking Clomid our chances are very slim. I have pollycystic ovaries (which was found during surgery in Cleveland.) This explains some facial hair and extra (natural) testosterone I produce because of my ovaries. Weird.

Anyway I think it's great you're back to the gym. Unfortunately, I have a prolapsed Uterus so NO gym for me for a while. I'm on a diet and love it. Seems to be working.
 
Good Luck Babsie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
Sending hugs to you :kiss:
 
Fridays surgery went well with the exception of an allergic reaction to demoral. However you spell that. :grin: I have colitis, IBS and if my Endometriosis gets worse around my colon then I'll get a bowel obstruction. I barely remember everything because I was so loopy. When I go in for my follow up appt, I'm surely going to remember this time.

Monday is another surgery and I'll keep all posted.

Stacey, thanx for the hugs. Prayers, kisses and hugs as well, are being sent your way. Good luck hon and if you need to talk, you can call me anytime or send me PM.

Babs
 
Okay. Mondays surgery went well. My tubes are open. So, our chances of conceiving are promising.

I received some news on the 19th though. I have colitis and am currently taking Asacol for that.

today I'm feel good. I'm on a nutrition program which seems to help. Will keep this updated.

Babs, stacey you girls are going to be just fine. It is a hard decision to make. When i was 31 i had to have hysterctomy just a partial, dr said my cramping was just going to get worse with age. After the surgery and everything dr. said i had endo which i thought i should of been told before. i was in hospital 3 days due to fever but was up and walking around . Took a week off work and then went back. i just think it depends on the person and how well they heal.
 
How much weight did you gain after?
 
WOW! I had a hyst/ooph/appendectomy four years ago due to stage IV endo. I also have fibromyalgia and my recovery was overlong due to needing two more surgeries and a run-in with lyme disease. Hugs to you. I understand the physical and emotional agony that goes along with endo. It knocked me down, but it didn't keep me down.

HI, I was daignosed with endometreosis just over two years ago. I started feeling the effects of having this horrible condition after I had my first and only child. I had the normal after childbirth bleeding which went away after a couple of weeks, then when it came time for my next menstrual cycle the bleeding lasted for a month and a half, by this time i was anemic and had been to the emergency room about seven times. They brushed me off and switched me from one BCP to the next about six times in the strongest prescription they could give me in pill form.....needless to say this still did not work. They booked me for ultrasounds and still nothing was found. Finally one doctor referred me to a gyno and soon after was in for a consult then a laproscopy. I was then diagnosed with endo, and was told that I more than likely have had this since my first menstrual period which was when i was 9. I often swell up so badly in my abdomen that i look really pregnant (like 7 or so months) which also accompanies severe sharp pains from my cervix to my belly button. I have on many occasions dropped to my knees in pain unable to move. Sortly after I was diagnosed with endo I was put on the depo-provera shot which i know is bad and i hate it but has so far seemed to be the only thing that keeps it from spreading any worse than it already has. At first this seemed to be somewhat affective for the pain, but slowly it faded. I now have to get the depo shot once every two months instead of the regular three. I have often been told by women who have endo as severe as mine not to bother with endometrial ablasions or other similar procedures, because by the time I heal from that it will be time for another. I have been told by many the only way to go is to get a hysterectomy. My problem now is that I am unsuccessful in finding a doctor that is good enough to replace the one i was seeing which is now retired. This has been a - what seems to me- hopeless adventure. I have so many questions to ask but have no trustworthy doctor to ask them of. If anyone has any suggestions as to a different medication i could take that is less harmful on your body and is also effective for pain relief. That would be great because I know depo-provera can't be the best answer....especially being that I have enough problems with my bones (I also have two types of scoliosis). I live in northern ontario so if anyone knows of a good gyno i could see please let me know.
 
Hi ladies, I just wanted to say that every BODY is different and ANYthing can happen....I am new to this site, but I just wanted to say to all those diagnosed with endo, please do not give up hope of having children!! I was diagnosed at age 16 with endo, doctor after doctor said 'i was too young'or 'it was in my head, everyone gets cramps' but the pain never subsided. I was told after 3 surgeries, and 4 lupron treatments (which I had the worst side effects) I would be lucky to conceive. Well, almost 9 yrs later, I have 3 beautiful children, AND I am pregnant with twins! Have faith!!
