Hi hun,
I have got 2 smileys in a row now - finally! It was beginning to do my head in!
Anyway... Sorry the
got you....
I also think I have endo - docs haven't been that helpful.
I went to them about 2 years ago because I was getting loads of spotting, even when I was on the pill. All they did was keep changing my pill. I researched it and went back and said I thought I may have endo - this pissed them off. They don't like to do their own job, but if you do it for them - that's even worse!!
So they sent me to a 'specialist' along with a shitty letter from the doc to the specialist saying the patient 'has convinced herself she has endo'. Whatever! They said the same thing as the docs, that they could manage it with BCP. They did also say they could do a laporoscopy, but because I wasn't TTC at the time, they talked me out of that and sent me off with my pills.
They were so crap I never bothered going back.
Since TTC I have been to new docs, they did an internal ultrasound and found something on my ovaries (no-one has yet explained what) that suggests I have psoc. So fine, maybe I do. But it doesn't explain more than half of my other symptoms - which point to endo - I tried to show the doc my list of symptoms, she wasn't interested... I had to force her to read it!! She did agree that a lot of the symptoms could be endo.
I asked about a Lap but they told me I need to be trying for a year first. But then said they will do it if you're in a lot of pain. I couldn't believe this, I had literally just said that I was getting extremely painful periods to the point I couldn't even leave the bathroom on the first day, and that I get pains that double me over... ???????
So she sent me away telling me to come back for a blood test on CD1 (that was what I'd actually gone in for, but 2 docs have sent me at the wrong time in my cycle) and said I can 'relax' for a couple of cycles now until they get PCOS results back... great!!
I realise this is turning into a rant....
So anyway...
How long have you been trying?
Do you have any other symptoms?
I hope they sort it out for you hun, I think the key is to put your foot down & demand some answers/treatment!
