End Of My Rope

Hi ladies ; i am coming to the end of my hope rope and just have no idea what to do here.

i was diagnosed with Endo in 2022, spread to my colon, bowel, large and small intestine. Had a partial hysterectomy where they remove my left tube and ovary because it was so overcome by adhesions that it was causing internal bleeding.

have had 2 laperectomys since to remove golfball-grapefruit sized cysts. they grow back bigger and faster each time.

My ob here in the US is starting to talk full radical hysterectomy , but i’m 23 years old and want to carry my own children desperately.

ever since diagnosis, i have also been admitted to a psych ward for panic attacks related to pain… last night was spent in the ER because a cyst ruptured and it felt like every bone in my hip shattered all at once.

i dont know if i can handle this anymore. do i just say screw it and get a hysterectomy so i wont be in blinding pain everyday for the rest of my life? freeze my eggs?

or try a new doctor, maybe go to the center in UK, idk i’m drawing for straws.
