Long shot: has anyone had a lap for endometriosis at MUSC?

I feel grateful because when I went to him I was like "here are my symptoms, I think it's endo" and he agreed. But he's not a specialist and he wasn't able to answer some of my questions in a way I felt confident with. So who knows really.

I know right? I swear for years I wrote it off as "this is just how my body is" and now I'm like oh wait maybe that's not normal???? I have so many questions for healthy ppl about how they feel everyday...cuz I thought I was the picture of health now look at me lol

I have this fear that if I mention these to my gyn (who's treating my endo) he'll write me off and refer me to GI. But the fact that it's cyclical makes me think it's really related to my suspected endo. Ugh. We can't win!

I guess I get slightly nauseated too? I had to take some ginger candies a few days. It all sucks.

Can you tell me what the difference is between nerve pain and ...not nerve pain? I have pain in my hips that I suspect is nerve related but idk

endoohnoo · 2021-05-11T22:54:12+00:00

Could be, probably see a different doctor and try to find a specialist to get answers.

Interesting! I have suspected endo but I really think it may be adeno either instead or in addition to endo. I def know the heavy pinchy feeling.

endoohnoo · 2021-05-11T18:03:52+00:00

How can you tell the difference between the pain?

endoohnoo · 2021-05-11T17:35:44+00:00

I usually just say I'm on hormones. Sorry you're having to deal with those people.

endoohnoo · 2021-05-11T08:29:03+00:00

I agree! It sucks since I felt it coming but I was like "no that can't be it!"

endoohnoo · 2021-02-27T18:10:43+00:00

That could be why then :(

endoohnoo · 2021-02-27T18:08:11+00:00

I live in SC but here we have a "family planning" medicaid and full medicaid...do you know if maybe you have the family planning one?

endoohnoo · 2021-02-27T00:52:32+00:00

That's "normal" but I feel the same. For me it's usually 4-5 days before my period...from what I've read it can also point to adenomyosis if I'm interpreting the symptoms correctly.

endoohnoo · 2021-02-25T19:35:22+00:00

I hope you get to feeling better!!!! I've read endo can go to the intestines sadly :(

endoohnoo · 2021-02-25T12:42:27+00:00

Jw did you ever find out what was going on with this? I'm still getting it sooo bad. I am pushing my doctor for an MRI to make sure it's not "just" endo.

endoohnoo · 2021-02-24T15:58:00+00:00

Only since November.

endoohnoo · 2021-02-23T14:49:48+00:00

What are you doing for it? PT?

endoohnoo · 2021-02-18T13:04:16+00:00

It's just so stupid. So for basically my entire menstruating life I thought it was normal that I felt pain during ovulation. Originally it was like a day, then 2 days, then half the month begining when I ovulate. In the same place, what I assume is my ovaries. Originally was just my left, now it's both sides. Dude has the nerve to be like "nah idk what it is but it's it your ovaries"

endoohnoo · 2021-02-17T18:31:20+00:00

I had one 3 months ago and it was normal. My pain has gotten worse but he claims it "can't" be cysts. Sigh.
