Hi, yes me although only finally realised it is endometriosis. Had total hysterectomy when I was 32. Had constant pain ever since!! Been fobbed off with drs. Finally went to BSGE centre last year and had mri scan which showed no endometriosis. I still believe I have had. Had crippling period pains last week. You know when something is not right!! Guess the only way is laporoscopy. Not sure if I want to have any more surgeries. I had stage 4, womb was stuck to bladder. It is a long time ago!! Don’t think you ever get rid of it. That’s why it is endometriosis disease. My drs are clueless on the subject. Message me if you want to chat. X

My dr didn’t have a clue what a BSGE centre was. Thank god for this site. You learn so much from it. It’s an awful disease to go through on your own. There is always someone on here to give advice. I know we are not all the same but it certainly helps me. I am in two minds whether to go for a laporoscopy. I have gone private because I wouldn’t get referred to a centre otherwise. It’s a life long condition, well it has been for me. Wishing you all the best. X

I only found out last year on this site. Google BSGE centres. They are the experts in endometriosis. X

Great. Can you get referred there? I don’t know whether to go for a laporoscopy or not! Really scared. Nothing showed on mri. It’s gotta be endo. The pain is just like really bad period pain. And we all know what that’s like. X

I have had a laprocosy they are good as they can get the diagnosis you need. I have already been referred there before xx

Also wanted to add that my endo showed up as very mild on my mri and yet when I had a lap I was diagnosed with stage 4 Endometriosis.

Thank you for posting this as I’m due to have a hysterectomy as I too have stage 4 endo and also ando but I also have lots of bowel issues and I’m Convinced If I go through the whole hysterectomy route that I still may have the endo - Yet both my gp and gynea can’t offer me any other solution. I do not think there is any guarantees with endo and then after the hysterectomy there is the joy of the menopause.

I truly believe this condition can totally effect every part of your life regardless how positive you are and I’m So very grateful for so many things including this site. X
