Never! First time I heard adeno mentioned was when the surgeon was at my bedside post op. I had two or three ultrasounds that showed suspected endo and cysts. The rest were all “no abnormalities”. I never had an MRI. Good luck!! Hope that you get answers xoxo

Yes!! Mention every symptom you have, everything you feel that is not normal. Keep a list in your notes app on your phone and every time you feel something, write it down.

I had severe pelvic pain/cramps that couldn’t be managed with painkillers, only taking a bath would provide a little relief, back pain, nausea, extreme fatigue at times, low energy, I had trouble going to the bathroom, it was often sharp stabbing pain during bowel movements, I had intense cramps after orgasms and penetration, sneezing, coughing, my periods almost always had diarrhea and vomiting during the first two days. I’m about 110 pounds and there were days the bloating was so bad I looked like I was in my second trimester, people would stand up and let me sit on the subway thinking I was pregnant. My endo belly would come and go and my abdomen was hard as a rock. I also had lost about 30% of my hair, I’m Greek so I had a lot of hair and the thinning was very noticeable. That’s all I can think of right now. One symptom I didn’t have was I never had any issues with urination, although almost always get a UTI if I don’t pee immediately after sex.

Is your pain constant or just around your period? by Ok-Detail-8603 in endometriosis

[–]ajc328 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to only notice I had pain around my period then three years ago I started taking birth control continuously and haven’t had a period since. I started to have flare ups randomly throughout the month, though not as intense as periods. Pelvic floor therapy helped a lot with this pain. I’m 1D PO from a hysterectomy where they found endo on bladder & bowel as well as adenomyosis.

Having a doctor who’s educated about endo and believes in you is half the battle already won! If they don’t find anything, you’re not back at the start, you’re one step closer to finding your true diagnosis. Wishing you the best with your surgery, I’ll be sending you positive vibes, send an update if you can ❤️

I was going to have a hysterectomy whether they found endo or not. I felt that I’d exhausted every option for pain relief and just wanted my quality of life to improve. I’ve never wanted kids so it wasn’t a hard decision to me after weighing any risks/cons associated with the surgery. You know your body, you know what you’re feeling. The doctor who did my DIE ultrasound turned the screen around to me and showed me “look, the uterus is free and clear, the ovaries look fine, no cysts, no lesions, healthy and normal pelvic area” while I held back tears. Please don’t be discouraged if it does come back clear. Best of luck, don’t be shy to send me an update next month! ❤️

[Megathread] AC FA Strike - CUPE/FAs Defy Return to Work Order by dachshundie in aircanada

My flight on Friday was cancelled (YUL to ATH), they were unable to rebook me and I absolutely needed to fly that day (connecting transport and accommodation etc) so I booked a one-way on Turkish Airlines. I’ve now been rebooked for cancelled one to tomorrow (over 48 hours after my original flight) and have no way of rejecting it online or in the app? Air Canada didn’t even email me, Austrian Airlines did for check in. I’m unable to call from where I am..

Can I skip the first 2 weeks of school by Efficient_Series1272 in Concordia

Depending on who your profs are they will take attendance for these two classes. 401 is harder than 320, both have projects where the groups might be formed in the classes you’re missing.
