A Pain You Can't Ignore: Endometriosis

Wow! I wish I could say the sentence below was true for me,I suffered Excrutiating pain due to my endometriosis after running, so bad that I was passed out on my yoga mat unable to finish the workout, I would take extreme caution when excersing. " the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle found that high-intensity workouts, such as running, biking, and playing tennis, three or more times a week slashed endometriosis risk by 76 percent.."

I had surgery with Dr. Sinervo at the CEC to treat my endometriosis. Traveling across country and giving them $5000 was a HUGE mistake. Two months after surgery I was already having repeat surgery for the same issues I went to the CEC for. I continue to suffer with endometriosis and encourage women to be careful in choosing a physician and method of treatment. There is NO cure for endometriosis, and there are lots of people who will take advantage of your hope and desperation to find one.

I was just diagnosed with endometritis. I have only ever had mild cramps, three weeks ago I awoke, could barely walk. A few days later,could't walk. I do not know if this is a correct diagnosis, but I do know, three weeks I feel as if someone is reaching up and is trying to pull my uterus out by their bear hands. I go in for a second opinion in a few days and pray for anyone who has gone though this for more than a month, you are blessed with a greater threashold than I.

A year ago I had laproscopic surgery due to painful periods & discovered that I have endometriosis. My uterus was bound to my bowels & I had extensive scarring. I'm 26 & recently married. Praying that this will not affect our ability to conceive. I am being treated by seasonal birth control, but hope to come off them soon to start TTC. I still experience intense pain during my periods. Often getting sick or feeling like I may pass out. I have never had the system of painful intercourse.

i had endometriosis all my life and did not know it til i had hysterectomy at age 60 and found that my uterus was 3 times the size it should have been and then i knew why my periods were so painful since i was 12 yrs old and suffered so much and being so sick most of the month every month bloating for 2 weeks 1 week of bleeding and only one good week of the month all my life til age 60,at 70 for the past 10 yrs i feel better than i did most of my life because of this illness
