Hi, I had surgery for stage 3 endo in June last year. I am still getting bad pains so went back to my doctors who referred me back to the gyno.

I would go back and say you are still having pain, something could have been missed.

I hate how the say that fibroids don't cause pain. How can they really know that for sure? Especially larger ones like that. I would go back or find another doctor to see. I hope you start feelin better soon!
