So had my appointment today and what a disaster went all prepared for the gyn to dismiss my consultant notes from endometriosis uk and my print out of who I want to refer to I was told it’s too far and I will be referred to Sheffield well I couldn’t find an endo specialist in Sheffield then was told I should go on pill for a few months to let my womb settle since I had a misscarrige despite I’m suppose to be trying for a baby everything he said was contradictory.i told him I know it’s endo cause my symptoms stopped and then he said we have to put you on pill to see if it really is endo he gave me combined which I thought it should be progesterone only pill you have cause Estrogen grows it and he gave me menfic acid was told I have a introverted uterus I thought well it’s probably all stuck together in there that’s why.the only positive is that he will give me an mri only because I have bowl issues but he said after 4 weeks I have to go back and have yet another ultrasound first I’m really fed up cause pain is worse every month I can feel growths in my bum and area near my vagina.my next step is to see the specialist private but will he refer me on nhs with it being bowl I know surgery will be more costly I can’t afford to keep having surgery fed up!
