Just been diagnosed with pernicious anaema, BUT had endometreosis so severe that I had a hysterectomy at the age of 33 years (3 years ago) It was a very painful illness, it totally ruled my day to day life. Felt much, much better until the past 6 months when the probs with joint pain and B12 began.

I've had Endo since 1991 and am currently being tested for B12 deficiency. Is there a link between them?

I had a hysterectomy ten years ago when I was 37, due to severe endometriosis! I didn't realise there was a link with b12d though!

That is much higher than statistics for women. It is about 10% and as I understand we have men here as well!
