Hi, my old gp said I had IBS and maybe pelvic inflammatory disease for 10 years just kept fobbing me off. I went to see a different gp and got referred to consultant who did a larparoscopy which confirmed severe endo. My advice get second opinion xx
That's because some Dr's. aren't as intelligent as others. And don't realize that they won't find Endometriosis... By a regular exam or test. It can not show up at all. Even on a biopsy you can have it not show. And still have the Endometriosis. Find a better Dr. That's more familiar with the problems of Endometriosis. Because it's a serious problem. I've had it before. And had to have a hysterectomy. I was recently re-diagnosed with it. However it's different this time. Because it's only in my abdomen sand I don't have my ovaries anymore. Since they had to take them before. My Ob that did my hysterectomy said, it could come back. Even after my surgery. And it has. I'm as sick as what I was the first time. Sounds like Dr you just seen doesn't know what they're doing. I'm having to deal with this, too. I was sent to someone recently. That doesn't know as much as my original Dr. did. About the facts of Endometriosis. And has no clue of knowledge my original Dr. did either. At least he knew what he was doing. And talking about. I got married and moved away. Which leaves me having to deal with a different Dr. And it's terrible. Because doesn't seem like this moron knew what he's doing here. So have to find someone else to help. Yes. It's aggravating very much so indeed.
Yes! I had a lap on Wednesday and was told no endometriosis. I have been told to go back to my GP and ask for referrals to other teams like bowels. When I pointed out that my bowels wouldn't cause almost daily vaginal bleeding he just said that if they don't find anything then ask for another referral to the pain clinic to 'manage my pain' and that I should keep taking the ridiculous number of hormones to stop the bleeding.
I feel as though they've wiped their hands of me and aren't actually interested in finding out what is wrong.
