Just a rant and opportunity to share endo stories as I'm struggling to cope with it!
So I have stage 4 endo which for me includes sharp constant pain in left side, numb legs, dull, firey ache around stomach and lower back, fatigue, mood swings, pain with anything toilet related, pain during sex, nausea, light headedness and of course the dreaded heavy, irregular periods.
Been suffering since the age of 12 (started period at 9), diagnosis at 16 with intention to remove some, but found was too deep in the bowel. Laparoscopy number two removed a cyst, but again (different doctor) couldn't remove due to severity in bowel and didn't listen when I said a specialist was needed! And now due lap number 3 for excision of whatever is there.
Someone tell me there's light at the end of this!
