Hi Christal
I know what you mean (re going home and crying when the Dr told you). All I wanted was to get married and be mum. The Dr told me back in 1990 that he would like to do a lap but it was still a new thing and he thought it had too many risks. So he put me on depo provera (where I gained 40 kg in 6 months), when I finished that my AF was a little better. I then decided to just deal with it (the pain), because I wasn't going to take any more hormones if they just put weight on me.
Then the pain just got worse and worse so I seen another Gyn and by this time Laps had developed a bit and he did one and told me where the endo was and put me on the pill (with no sugar tablets) to try and stop AF. That didn't work and I kept trying all different "pills" with higher strengths. I got side affects from the pills but AF still turned up every month. I then tried a nasal spray Syranal, and that didn't really work. He then wanted me to try another hormone but when I looked it up I found out it gave you hair (on the face and around your nipples and it would be a permanent thing) so I said no to that. I then stopped everything again and just delt with the pain.

How did the naturopath go?? What did he/she suggest??
I have never been to one. But I have done me own reaserch and taken alot of herbs /vit & min ).

Take care
Chris
Chris,
I haven't seen the naturopath yet. My appt was supposed to be last Tues but I ended up having to stay at home because we had an ice storm. I am rescheduled for this Tues. I will update after my appt. & let everyone know what she said.
I'm sorry the pills didn't help w/ the endo Chris.
I am thinking of the naturopath doesn't help me that is what I'm going to try and then maybe surgery again as a last resort.
I wish no one had to struggle w/ this disease that has no cure
