Endo related scans and tests

Hi everyon! I hope you are all doing as well as possible and I wish you a happy new year!

I wanted to ask, are there any endo-related illnesses or just illnesses that have a higher incidence in people with endo? I don’t want to go through a process similar to the endo diagnosis all over again, as I’ve seen that this is the case for illnesses like fibromalgya.

I still need to speak with my specialist about my endo treatment, but I want to do all the test to rule out other related or frequent conditions.

I’m fully aware of the fact that having endo means that i need to readjust certain things in my lifestyle and I would like to do this whole process ideally just once (I realise that it might not be realistic, but i guess it’s worth trying😂).

I hope my rambling is at least a bit coherent! I was wondering if anyone has thought about this before and what kind of conditions/tests they did.

Thank you in advance!!

I’ve had various scans, etc., to rule out bowel cancer and anything else, all seemed to come back as gynae. Even with hysterectomy, etc., still having bowel issues. GP is contacting consultant to see what else he saw during op in the way of adhesions.Well worth ruling other things out.

Thank you for replying! Yeah, I feel the same. Even if I have been diagnosed with Endo already I know that there's a higher chance of other conditions that come with it, so I would definitely like to rule those out
