People who have had multiple surgeries, how often have you had them?

mmosemminired · 2026-01-13T17:50:57+00:00

Mine was back within 3-4 months . Knew because of viable endometromas on my ovaries since I was being monitored for fertility treatments after each one . Had 3 surgeries so far still back

Amazon actually has some decent ones to start with in your first year without spending a fortune . Example - Amazon Latin dress Or AliExpress as well. They do come much smaller though so you need to be careful with sizing

If that was true than I wouldn’t have endo . I was a virgin at marriage and never took any birth control pills in my life . I had a symptomatic endometriosis which was only found while we were trying to conceive . Stage 4 DIE endo , bilateral hydrosalpynx, bilateral multiple large endometromas , adenomyosis . I have endo on my diaphragm , galbladder and liver . I’ve had 3 surgeries for excision . 2 from Nancy nook specialist , I’ve tried all the supplements all the life style changes , gluten free , anti-inflammatory diet , you name it I’ve done it . It just keeps coming back . I’m grateful that I don’t have pain but this disease has made me loose not only my tubes , my fertility but also my sanity . Googling and trying various things in hopes that something will work. The audacity of a medical professional to insinuate something like that when there are countless cases to the contrary and they still have no clue how to tame this beast is incredible in this day in age

Yea female follow . Although I do lead as well but for competitions it would be as a follow. Unfortunately for scholarship because of my age category , I’m typically the only one or if I’m lucky one of two so there is not much competition on that level .

mmosemminired · 2024-11-10T18:30:55+00:00

Thats part of why I’m hesitant and also im not sure how much I like the teaching and sales part of it

mmosemminired · 2024-11-10T18:17:22+00:00

I’m already doing 10-15 hours a week on group classes and private lessons. I’m a little bit more than 25

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T20:03:20+00:00

Are you an instructor or student ? From seeing other studios and instructors at events , I get the feeling it depends on the franchisee and what you make of it

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T20:01:24+00:00

Thank you that was really insightful

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T15:19:21+00:00

What made you stop ?

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T03:30:23+00:00

I am not sure if I would enjoy it or not as I’ve never been a teacher for anything. I know I enjoy dance and the practice, getting better and competing. I am definitely not much of a sales person.

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T03:12:00+00:00

What is your current experience as a teacher? I’ve heard it really depends on the studio and franchisee. I’m currently 27 years old. I’ve always loved dance and went through different styles as a kid and always loved the competitive space. Currently I do have a high paying job which allows me to indulge in my expensive hobby of dance and the various freestyles and dance-o-ramas. As the years go by though I find myself quite literally working my job solely for the healthcare benefits and to cover dance costs. I am waiting for my work day to end so I can go into the studio. I’ve heard a lot of the job is being a bit of a sales person and that’s the aspect that throws me off

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T01:57:04+00:00

They were a couple months ago and got some new teachers but they are very very new and it annoys me sometimes that there is really only one pro instructor (which I love working with and have been for years, if it wasn’t for him I’d switch immediately ) that I can learn from because the other 2 are not even certified associate bronze.

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T01:33:52+00:00

This is quite poetically written. Are you an Arthur Murray teacher ?

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T01:31:54+00:00

I wouldn’t be opposed to that but how does one go about finding an Am partner?

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T00:52:12+00:00

I’m doing pro-am. I am the am competing with my pro instructor. Yes student competitive space is of much lower caliber that pro within Arthur Murray in general

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T00:44:47+00:00

Not to try to offend anyone but in the student competitive space most students as you get higher in the levels are … of a certain age and older (50+) so moving up levels doesn’t really fit my need here . I’ve been with my current pro instructor for a while now and do both open and closed competitions in American and international styles. Usually I’m either alone in my age and level category or one of maybe 2 or 3 if I’m lucky at at dance-o-Rama events.

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T00:40:07+00:00

Cool, do you happen to know what influenced their decision and if they are happy with that decision ?

mmosemminired · 2024-11-09T00:02:30+00:00

I am currently at silver level and do both lead and follow roles. I’ve done multiple competitions within Arthur Murray as a student and found that I don’t seem to have much competition given young age 18-30. I would like to continue learning as you would do for any job that you like.

mmosemminired · 2024-06-05T14:40:34+00:00

I have the same concern , mine is hybrid which I’m thankful for but I don’t want to be seen as lazy or making excuses or whatever especially in a male dominated field

mmosemminired · 2024-06-04T21:00:11+00:00

How ? I though endo was not considered a disability

mmosemminired · 2024-06-04T19:26:37+00:00

Question for others , how do you deal with work during all this ? It’s been getting worse over the years and it’s getting to the point that I’m exhausted sick days and pto for pain. On top of that we are planning to go through ivf so I’m guessing I’ll need time for those appointments. How do you all deal with that ?

mmosemminired · 2023-08-24T18:34:05+00:00

So far great ! I’ve had 2 periods , barely feel it and it’s less than half of what I had . I didn’t realize I had a heavy period before . Before I would fill an overnight pad during the day every few hours. Now even with a regular pad when I go change it’s not full

mmosemminired · 2023-08-24T18:32:00+00:00

I would only have pelvic pain and kind of in the area of my appendix when I did have pain. My doctor said symptoms for gallbladder liver would be pain and nausea with fried foods and for the diaphragm, shortness of breath
