And the saga continues... Pain, blood & tears...

I always feel like I've been stabbed multiple times in my stomach...

What is that??? Is it from your belly button?

[Lillyhasendo in reply to Hidden]

Yes,

I have umbilical endometriosis... I won't know if I have the more endometriosis for sure til my lap... But they said most likely I do given my symptoms and also it being in my bellybutton is a good indicator, so most likely I do...

It's really sucks!

Just when I start to feel bad for me, I am reminded that their are others with it much worse. Wow!! How long has this gone on? Does it only flare up when your period is going to begin? I have only heard of this once in a passing article online, they said it is as unusual as endo in the lungs and legs. I bet the pain is unbelievable. Does it bleed?

[Lillyhasendo]

Yes is not fun...

I do bleed through my belly button during my menstrual cycle. The bleeding is rather new... Maybe 4-5 months.

The diagnosis about 7 months,

And when I started noticing my belly getting really uncomfortable about 3 yrs ago... At first I was diagnosed with an umbilical hernia, then after seeing the hernia specialist, turns out it wasn't!! So I went to radiology where they diagnosed me.

It's been downhill ever since.
