    Ducky, I completely understand!
    Even my hubby keeps saying: "When you are better after your op..."!!!!!!!!! Yet he has been with me through the crap for the last 5 years!!!
    Nobody but the sufferer fully understands the illness. I am not working at the moment because of how bad things are, yet the "daily depression" is driving me out of my mind! I try and talk to family, they don't care (brother just had his 4th child so that is all we ever hear...I have now stopped calling - thank god they live on the other side of the world otherwise I would physically throttle my mother!!!) and as for the in-laws...well, just like your mum, they think once the op is over with then everything will be wonderful.
    I too am constantly
    Hugs x

    Saw my doctor today, good and bad news.
    There was endometriosis, but they removed all off it and I should have started to feel better by now. So, I'm getting the mirena implant in two days.
    here goes nothing

    Hi Ducky.
    Not sure what to say...just that hopefully you WILL start to feel better soon.
    Did your dr say anything else or give you any other options or was the mirena the only choice?
    How are you feeling about it all?

    Honestly, I don't have much choice.
    The fact is, they don't know what is doing it all they know my pain is worse around my periods. As she said there is plan a and plan b. I trust in both her and my GP and willing to try anything, even with the dreadful side affects.
    Plan a, we try mirena.
    Plan b, they cut the nerves.

    I don't know what to feel, I'm so confused about it all.
    It took me so long to find a pill that worked for me, I don't want to change in fear of the pain and the side affects.

    My sister is kind of going through the same. She's had 2 laps & a colonoscopy, coz they can't find whats wrong. They are sure its not endo.
    She has the rod in her arm to try & prevent her getting AF, but she is still in nearly as much pain every month anyway. Always when she would normally get AF.
    I hope you all feel better soon.
