Hi, it does get exhausting trying to juggle life around endo it dictates to you what kind of day your gonna have. Thursday I had appointments but collapsed out side aldi ( endo pain) I was carrying heavy bags. Messed up my day. Exhausted for seven and took painkiller for pain,thank god I slept through the night. Friday, codine, heat pad and bed was all I could do. Sat I planned a picnic and instead spent spent all day crying because I had to let my girls down. I'm typing this now and I feel sick with pain endo and bowel pain which hits me every month. Sunday I have got to go out and I dread how much pain I'm gonna be in. I will just want to crawl in and need my bed but instead will be preparing for my lap on Monday at 7 oh and mass to be removed from insisiol scar at the same time. Its never ending I feel blessed if I have a pain free day but there few and far between, I'm spending most of the month in pain now it's a never ending nightmare decease that effect mind,body ,spirt it effect us are partners are children,are social life,work life . So I hear ya it's gets exhausting big hugs x

Hi, I'm hoping when I get there they don't cancel :-( I can't go through all this worrying again...... I have sleep apnea so there really could be a chance. And let's face it they think because we're women we should just get on with it. And too be honest it's the women that are the worst,not women like us. Women that have never lived with this decease.I got more care from the male docter who did my scan than any women docter I've ever seen. On a positive note the codine kicked in today and I managed to see my grandson. I'm now done in and in bed but I did it. Big hugs to you all kx
