And Away We Go

December 19th, 2018 at 06:14 pm

Well, we are about to head down to Virginia Mason to see if the doctors there will actually do something about my daughter's high likelihood of endometriosis, or if we will yet again be faced with another set of doctors who are too worried about getting sued to do a surgery on a patient who is higher risk.

I don't hold out a lot of hope, to be honest. We've just heard it so many times. But these doctors do specialize in it and they've had to have had patients with my daughter's issues before, so maybe. Keep your fingers crossed for us today. Prayers for a doctor willing to do something would be greatly appreciated.

    Many prayers! I had horrendous endometriosis, undiagnosed until I needed intestinal surgery for another issue. When they opened me up, they ended up tacking another 2.5 hours onto the surgery to clear all the endometriosis out. That put a stop to the horrendous monthly cramps and nausea from then on--I only had very occasional and much milder cramps after that time until hitting menopause and an end to the issue for good. I hope your doctor finds someone who can safely do the surgery and get her similar relief.

    I so feel for your daughter. My oldest went into early menopause and is being treated. She is 39. I have a friend who had endometriosis really bad and was on her couch for days, even after having a hysterectomy and one child. Prayers!
