Tightness In Chest
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone have thoracic endo or endo on the diaphragm and have tightness in the chest or trouble breathing when the humidity is high?

It's very difficult to find someone to help with this. My GP actually was the one who suggested the possibility after doing every test under the sun and coming up with no answers for my pain. She sent me back to my gyno who said it was possible, but not likely and didn't want to do anything. I started researching on my own and found all of my symptoms lined up. I found Dr. Sinervo and the Center for Endometriosis Care in Atlanta on the Internet. I sent in my medical records and one of the surgeons called me back and went over them with me and we made a surgical plan and I'm having surgery there in August. So start by researching and looking for specialists and go from there.

No I only had trouble breathing upon exertion but I only had adhesions on the diaphragm no actual endo.
