Livingi with Endometriosis

I'm 27 years old and have had Endometriosis since I was 16yrs old. I was I had laproscopic surgery in 2004 to remove a lot of it. After that there was little change but mostly positive. The up side of things was that I was able to get pregnant fairly easily after "trying" (2007) and got pregnant 3 months after my daughter was born (Mar 08). So all the fear of thinking I couldn't get pregnant was put to rest. Unfortunately after having my son (Apr 09)my sypmtoms of heavy/painful periods and other associated symptoms did return. Living with Endometriosis is soooo different for everyone and it has challenges. For those who are questioning if they have it, be persistant about achieving a diagnosis! Most docs don't take it seriously even though your symptoms are awful to live with. For those who know they have it, watch out for those pain meds and anti-inflammatory drugs long term they will do damage to your stomach. For those of you trying to get pregnant, it's already a 1 in a gazillion chance for anyone trying to conceive, try not to stress to much. Remember to enjoy the process with your partner and If it's meant to happen it will. If God's timing is right. Be prepared and discuss other options with eachother in advance. When and if it happens be forever thankful,greatful, and enjoy every min of it. God Bless!
