As I navigate this journey I realize that there are so many people out there who are trying to navigate the same waters. So, I wanted to take a step back and share how I was diagnosed with thoracic/diaphragmatic endometriosis in case there are others who need this right now. I had an ablation in…
For those of you who are still on the edge of their seat waiting to hear about what’s been happening with my endo journey, here goes.

The surgery was very…
Skipping Menstrual Periods Because of Endometrial Pain After seeing an Endometriosis specialist in July, it was clear that my pain pathway was undeniable, and that the endometriosis was in fact back with a vengeance. Not only is my endo on both tubes, but the left tube is so sticky that is affecting my left sciatic…
