WELCOME ") You didn't sign your post so I'm going to call you Andy using
your email address. I too had dysplasia, but they lazered that out. I had
pain all of my childhood and come to find out I was born with endometriosis.
I've had surgery after surgery for endo., but the pain just didn't stop and
the endo. just didn't stop spreading. Because my husband and I wanted
children badly, I was not about to have a hysterectomy. I too had those
wonderful lupron shots after each surgery. Finally, after trying all I could
to get pregnant and the pain being so severe, I had a total abdominal
hysterectomy. I kick myself in the butt now for having that surgery. I wish
my ob/gyn wasn't so easy on me saying OK OK I'll have the hysterectomy
because of all this pain. Well, guess what - even with the hysterectomy I
still had pain and the pain got worse each year. I guess what I'm trying to
say is, before you go and have the hysterectomy take a look at ALL options
because you can never get those parts back again.
Love and Hugs,
