No body can say you could have mild endo, unless you have a laparoscopy, are you under a bsge centre,? Don't let them bully you into getting or taking anything, if you want a laparoscopy, to diagnose, tell him, your not happy to take something without being diagnosed first, good luck x

I would advise you to get a second opinion, don't let them bully you into doing something you don't want to do. To be properly diagnosed you need a laparoscopy. Also, if they say you have mild endo by giving you coil andprostap it will only mask your symptoms. If the endo is there, it will continue to grow. I'm speaking from experience and it happened to me, I was fobbed off for years until I've had enough and basically demanded a laparoscopy. I used to agree with all the doctors said to me but then I came to realise it was MY body and MY pain and I want something done. Good luck :)

Hi lindle I'm in Staffordshire so already under a bgse centre. I ended up going back to my doctor as I wasn't happy with the consultant. She's put me on the pill for 3 months to monitor my symptons again and to wait for my back MRI results to come through. She doesn't want me to take prostap yet. Just this back and leg pain is driving me mad and the pressure feeling is like been in labour everyday. Thank you for your reply xxxx
