Looking for info

I am looking for info...I know noone can make this decision for me and my Dr. told me that it shouldn't be a problem in deciding if the pain is bad...he has offered me support and has called me at home to answer some of my questions...I have had a ultrasound done...and some other test...don't know the name of it...but had potassium chloride injected into my bladder...and they told me the only other thing he could do to find anything else out was to do a laparoscopy...he thinks I have endometriosis...the only thing the ultrasound showed was an enlarged uterus...I am 31...and have 3 children...and had a tubal in June 99.

HI Poohbear

I have read that the only definent way to diagnose endometriosis is through a laparoscopy. That is how my doctor diagnosed me with endo.

Here is an article about
Laparoscopy

My doctor was able to remove alot of the endo while he was doing the laparoscopy which helped relieve some of the pain I was having.
Here are some articles to read about Endometriosis

It is great that you are doing your research to learn as much as possible
