I never actually thought I might have Endo until my fertility doctor suggested a Laparoscopy (which I cannot afford to get at this stage).

I don't get the Endo belly I keep seeing (normal bloating) BUT over the last say six months specifically, I have noticed my periods are extremely painful, extremely heavy and clotty, lasting a little longer sometimes (longest being eight days, it's normally five days) and I normally have cramping during my entire cycle. My back is always sore too but I do have an arthritic autoimmune disorder so I always assumed it was that. And of course, inexplicable infertility.

This cycle I also have oddly weird cramps in weird, unspeakable places which Google tells me is due to an overactive prostaglandin hormone... Which is also part of Endo.

I am trying to find a network doctor for my medical plan to have the surgery with them.
