Stupid Endometriosis

Hey Jen,

I guess I should think of it as a relief...it just sucks because this is what I thought was wrong with me in May 2005 when I was first sent to a specialist, but no one would listen to me (they actually tried to give me anti-psychotics). So it just makes me sad that I could have potentially been better by now.

As for the endo, *generally* if the pill is the cause of the cushing's than that means no more hormonal BC You of course know how much it would suck to not be able to even try out any treatments...but it's better than the alternative.

And yes, you're right about my previous surgey...I didn't have any of the endo removed. However, I don't want children and I know I would do a lot better if I didn't have to have monthly periods...plus, without hormonal BC of some sort I'd always worry about getting pregnant, so I think a hysterectomy might be a good option for me. I'd have the doctor doing it excise any and all endo at the same time (of course).
