  1. Thanks. I have been reading a lot about it. Everywhere I have read says that birth control pills is the main treatment. I will try it. My doctor said it is best to do them continuous after having the lap surgery to remove the endo. He says it gives you a fresh start and helps prevent the bleeding. I tried the Depo shot before and I hated it. I bleed for 9 months straight. But that was before I knew I had the endo. But I still wouldn't go back to it. The side affects are awful.


  2. I had lap surgery on Monday and the doctor said I had endometriosis very bad. He lasered it off and he wants me to be on birth control pills continuously, not skip a week of hormones with the placebo pills. He put me on ortho tricyclen lo. Has anyone else tried continuous birth control pills for treatment?


  3. My ex bf had a kidney stone and he went in to have a shunt put in (imagine, going up through the penis to the kidney.. ugh!), he had to get into stirrups!! I thought, anything they will do to me would be better than a man going into stirrups! haha As women (and mostly here we are women), we are used to being poked and prodded :biggrin:

    I used to work with a nurse practioner who would put men in stirrups when they needed an anal exam!!


  4. Okay, I'm really starting to have issues with my band.

    It's round with a hole, so it always makes me think of donuts... I have a donut inside me that I can't eat.

    I don't think I can handle it. I'm eyeballing my nail clippers...

    Don't do it, don't listen to the voices....


  5. Yep, I went, I saw, I read... What's totally sad :biggrin: is that I actually answered one of her posts this evening. I'm worried. First HH and FINAO and now this. Great, if I don't get a band soon, I'll be tossed off the forum for being too freaky.

    I have answered several of her posts.:)
