Looking For Surgeon With Deep Infiltrated Endo Experience
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I’ve had 2 previous laps, a hernia repair and full hysterectomy (ovaries kept in) within the last 4 years. My first surgeon botched the job and the second only ablated endo on my pelvic side walls. I’ve done PFT 2x a week, Botox shots, nerve injections, etc..since my last surgery 2 years ago but am still in debilitating pain. My PFT is recommending Ken Sinervo in Atlanta. Has anyone with “DIE” used anyone else and had long term success?

Yes he was my primary Surgeon. They will ask you if you have a preference. Most of my contact has been with Dr Chu outside of the week of surgery. And he personally responded to my initial inquiry… read more

How To Stop Bleeding/ Trigger Warning This Is Sad
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Was Diagnosed with endo in April 2018 after a laparoscopy. Everything was going great until about the end of august when I got a flare up. Four months later I’m still in a flare up. Bleeding every single day. Heavily. I was put on a higher dose of continuous birth control in December but hasn’t worked. I am miserable. My doctor just retired so now I have to find a new one and am having trouble finding a new one. I am soooo depressed because of this. No one professionally has talked to me about… read more

Learning To Cope
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Hi everyone! Two days ago I officially found out I have stage 4 endometriosis after getting laparoscopic surgery. Healing process has been okay, and I’m finally starting to eat/ drink again. As of last night- I believe it really started to hit me. You see, I’m someone who experienced no pain whatsoever. But when the doctors found a complex 6.5 cm cyst on my right ovary about 8 months ago and decided to monitor it (sure enough it got worse) that’s when the confusion for me started. They mentioned… read more

Absolutely, we all have to do what's right for us. Seeing a functional medicine practitioner or a Naturopath might be helpful. I'm working with an Integrative Medicine gyno right now.
