Re: Stupid Endometriosis       07/08/06 10:26 AM Edit Reply Quote Janey Reged: 10/25/03 Posts: 1716 Loc: Maryland Kelly, I am sorry you are going through all of this. I am like the others and don't know anything about Cushings. At least with a dx they can start treating you instead of blowing you off. I also had endometriosis. I had a complete hysterectomy at age 36. I had already had 3 children and wasn't dx with endo until I was 35. Even with all the pain I was going through I still had to convince the doc to do the hysterectomy. He actually suggested that I have another baby because he said pregnancy relieves some of the symptoms. I really had to insist. I can honestly say that it was the best thing for me. I felt so horrible before and so much better afterwards. I know a lot of women have problems afterwards but I really didn't experience any of them. I still felt like a woman, have never had any problems sexually and on a whole felt so much better physically that it was worth it for me. Everyone is different though and you should be aware of the pros and cons before you make your decision. The pain of endo is very difficult to live with so I do understand your thinking about a hysterectomy. -------------------- Janey Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
