Hi all - I'm going to be attending the World Congress on Endometriosis this week. If you could be in a room with some of the world's top medical practitioners and researchers in endometriosis, what would you want to ask them?
Too late to reply but my question would be who is talking about working on the next imaging invention that can see scar tissue and adhesions? We need to stop using surgery as a diagnostic tool!
What can be done to reduce the average diagnosis time? I believe it's around 9 years right now.
Also, how can we increase awareness so others know just how painful this disease is. And with so many of its sufferers having difficulty keeping jobs because of the absences that often occur, why hasn't it been pushed to be on the list of conditions covered by social security disability. Not that any of us would want to live that way, but it would be nice to know that there would be something to fall back on.
What are your institutions doing to improve education on endometriosis for practitioners?
Why doesn't anything stop the pain?
how can i make sure my daughters dont get this horrible illness, how can i protect them?
