Hi all,

I have had endometriosis for 20 yrs now and Im 41 yrs. old. I have had my left overie romoved 7 yrs ago, gallbladder removed 5 yrs ago, and a broken pelvis 5 yrs ago from a small fall (found out I have osteoporosis from a Lupron injection they gave me to freeze my periods which gave me now osteo..and other laporascopys for scraping off endometriosis. When I was 30 yrs old i begged for a hysterectomy, my ins. did not approve (I have one 16 yr old daughter) who is a miracle she was even born, havent been able to conceive since then. I now for the past 3 yrs have SEVERE pain on my left lower abdomen (same side where overie was removed) soo bad that 5 different trips to e.r. with Morphine I.V's did nothing at all. I live on Norco, tramadol, for pain. Ct scan, lots of ultrasounds showed really nothing. During my cycle I would feel like death, way way worse than childbirth, I started taking "Diamotaceous Earth" food grade. ( you can buy it on ebay) 1 tsp mix with water once a day and period paid relief of 50% AMAZING!!! But after my period the severe sharp lower left pain is still there for a couple of weeks. and gets better than all over again. I have not had a colonoscopy because I heard if u get one with severe endo you could die from them accidently rupturing your intestine (if its all glued together from edno. Any help or suggestions? Thank u all tonz!!
