Endometriosis

Through my own research, I felt a strong feeling that I might have what is called endometriosis. As the light went off in my head, I immediately called my doctor. She called me in for an appointment the very next day. I used my lunch break plus 2 extra hours during work to see my doctor. I first had an ultrasound and then saw my gyn. First glance she said she did not see any problems, however that did not necessarily mean I didn't have it. I then went through all the symptoms that lead me to why I thought I had this. My gyn then told me to keep my Specialists appointment. If they also believe I had Endo, then she would do surgery (laparoscopy), to remove what she could. She felt pretty stern about not performing any unnecessary surgery. I will be making my Specialist appt w Dr B at the end of April. But until then, she placed me on a one month round of Clomid that will start on Day 5- tomorrow. No one in the family knows, just My Hubs and me. I'm hoping one round will work, otherwise it's the next step for endometriosis.....
