Inspired by many Endo Sisters I have decided to dedicate a post to the colourful world that is Endometriosis.
Be warned,these photos are from surgical procedures so if you're anyway uneasy about looking please feel free to read any of our other posts.
I have included my own surgical photos from my hospital chart to kick start us off. I have stage IV Endo and as of yet almost 11 years diagnosed I still haven't found a suitable treatment. Surgically, my Doctors are being very conservative as the implants are too close to healthy tissues. Both ovaries adhere to the pelvic wall and bowel and I have had three surgeries to "rotate" them. I am currently looking into alternative medicine, in particular acupuncture and above all maintaining a positive attitude.
There is no cure. It's a life sentence alright but we have to speak up so Women know they shouldn't have to live with this pain. Love to my Endo Sister and Warriors XxxxxX
Diagnosed with Endometriosis via laparoscopy in 2003 and Adenomyosis in 2015. This is my journey with chronic, invisible illnesses. "When all you know is pain you don't know that that is not normal." Susan Sarandon "You just have to tell somebody else. You have to take whatever stigma people think that is there. Here’s a disease you don’t know about and YOU NEED TO KNOW about it. It’s that simple. It’s not rocket science." Whoopi Goldberg
