Endometriosis and the immune system

Hello all, I realise I post in here an awful lot however the advice received is so comforting and really helps me and plenty of others I am sure! I wanted to ask about endometriosis and the immune system. I should probably clarify I have not yet been diagnosed with the disease but all my symptoms point to yes! I was sent home from work yesterday as I nearly fainted in a team meeting. I now have a very sore and swollen throat that hurts when I swallow liquids/I have consistent back ache/my legs keep receiving stabbing pains that are very sharp and hard to deal with/I have completely lost my appetite and have not eaten anything the past two days. I wanted to know if there was a correlation or confirmed yes that endometriosis effects the immune system as I always seem to be poorly every month, if not more! Thank you all in advance for reading this and taking the time to respond, it is always appreciated!
