I have come from being an athlete my whole life to this “I’m not leaving the house person “. I can’t work because my endo pain cripples me. My surgeon don’t want to do my next surgery because it’s too high risk as I am a stage 4 endo with extreme case. So I’m finding mentally very difficult to accept that this world of pain , endo belly , and some days chronic pain that has me crippled on the couch is now my life. People try to understand but you can see they don’t. People struggle to see me so inactive and think why it can’t be that bad. So ladies I hear you , I feel you and with a natural health background of 20plus years I’m determined to find some way to survive this horrific disease.

Please share which your Dr is. I've suffered fo 20 + years. I was part of the "it's all in your head" era and before the internet existed. 7+ years ago I had a hysterectomy. Before that "cure" was considered a myth. I'm back to an endobelly (just learned that is what it's called now) yesterday my PCP felt all he could offer was psychotherapy as he believes that is the cause. I swear if one more insensitive male Dr tells me that…smh. No imaging. Nothing. I found, by accident, bowel endometriosis. I never had deep excision only ablation as that was the standard then. The scar tissue is astonding. I need to find a Dr that specializes in stage 4 endometriosis post hysterectomy and get this done right. Preferably in the south centered around Mobile, Alabama. I lostt my ability to have more children because I believed that was the only way to end it. I was wrong. So please anyone reading this…email me your recommendations. I can't even talk to another and yet again explain my story without crying. I guess he also thought crying meant therapy is needed. Endo causes so much loss, it deserves a tear or 2. Email me at superscully26@gmail.com.

And I’m writing this from my bed, my hot water bottle on my bloated endo belly, too exhausted to face the day, yet comforted by the shared stories from my heroic endo sisters – we WILL get better!

Hi Julie, Who’s your gyn that operated on you? I have a lot of these symptoms & I’ve finally met a gyn that suspects I have this awful disease. But cos of my age, 38 & low fertility I’ve to have IVF to help me get pregnant soon before any surgery required. As time is running out for us to have a baby. I live in the UK.

No doctor or gyn has a clue what to do with me, no period in over 20 years either. I have endo belly, look like im 8 months pregnant and have for years. Done diets, detox, personal trainer and just now accept the fact this is me and it cant be helped.
