Endometriosis

Kaitlyn
I'm sure there are ladies on here that suffer from endometriosis, I need someone to talk to. Tell me about your symptoms and how it affects you. I have not been diagnosed with it I'm going to the obgyn tomorrow but my mom suffered from it when she was young and ended up having a hysterectomy. Well it seems like my periods have become increasingly painful along with some more rather scary symptoms. I was 6 days late this month and when it came the cramps were unbearable, I left a heating pad on all day on high. Burnt my stomach but didn't even care the pain was so bad. I was filling up pads every 30 min or so and was extremely nauseous and light headed. My husband was gone so I got up to get a phenergen for my nausea and passed out. I've never passed out before. Ever. Hit my head and my knee. My mom came over (she is a nurse) she looked at my pad and by that time it had slowed down so I just took a phenergen and laid down and she stayed with me till my husband got home. Sorry for such a long post but I'm just stressed out. My mom thinks I should get back on birth control, because if it is endometriosis it will stop the growth, but I want nothing more right now than to get pregnant 😥
