Before I was diagnosed with Endometriosis, I saw so many different doctors and they treated me like an idiot, one even suggested that it was all in my head. I was misdiagnosed at first with ulcerative colitis then IBS, but the medication they gave me didn't help me and I knew that it was something that had to do with my reproductive system.
I knew that there was something wrong because I couldn't handle the pain, especially during my cycle. I was missing work a lot, during my periods I couldn't even get up from bed; I would also bleed a whole lot. I have had two laparoscopies but the pain came back, then the doctor put in Lupron for six months, I took a five-month break and then re-started Lupron for another six months. So far Lupron has been what has worked for me; the side effects are awful but a lot better than the pain. Then the GYN suggests me try TCM therapy-fuyan pii, and now I feel better and not pain as before. After 4 months treatment, my GYN tell me everything is OK, and now I lice a normal life, thankful!
