Anyone Have An Endo Flare Up And Convince Yourself It’s Cancer?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Bronx, NY

Hey guys! I was diagnosed with Endo 6 years ago and last June had a transvaginal US that showed small cysts the day before i was to start my cycle. Lately I’ve been struggling with severe back pain, sciatica, gas, stomach issues and nausea. I’ve since convinced myself it’s ovarian cancer 🤦🏻‍♀️. Has anyone ever been here before?

Before I was diagnosed with endo I kept convincing myself that I whenever I had an attack it was appendicitis.

You are very welcome. I was so thankful when I found support group, having women turn to that know exactly what you are going through is really uplifting.
