I've just got back from my doctors, he has ordered a scan, blood work & is also writing to Gynea to hurry along my Laparoscopy. Has anyone else had any joy/ experiences with this?

Thank you so much for all your lovely replies. This is such a isolating, life ruling disease, I wish it would just get better for us all πŸ˜”πŸ’•

Hi Heartof3

It's good to hear that your doctor is so supportive and is trying to expedite your laparoscopy. It's definitely the best way to diagnose and can be used to treat endometriosis.

I can really sympathise with you - having endometriosis can be incredibly isolating at times. This is why we run face-to-face support groups all over the country where you can discuss your symptoms with other endometriosis sufferers. To see if there is one in your area, visit endometriosis-uk.org/find-a.... If not, we also run an online support group.

We also have a brilliant helpline (0808 808 2227), which is open most days and run by a team of volunteers who all have personal experience of endometriosis. The times it is open can be found here: endometriosis-uk.org/helpline. Please do give it a call if you ever feel like you need that support.

Wishing you all the best x
