I have begun my blog to raise awareness to the chronic disease Endometriosis. I would like my blog to be a source of information on all aspects of this disease - whether that be surgery, treatment or the day-to-day aspects of living with this condition. I have created a Video Blog to work along side this to discuss a whole variety of issues.

Set backs are tough...

Isn't it amazing how used you can get to feeling somewhere to normal... only to be shot right back down again once back into your prime!

I have had two really good weeks. Actually felt like a regular woman again... I was being social, able to see friends and family... managed to venture outside on a little trip once or twice.. but as always once I get used to how things are being - on a nice level - a flare hits and brings you right back down to earth with a bump!!

Maybe it is because during these "good" days I try to do so much with my time - that I bring on the flare - or end up exhausting myself I do not know... but either way - it sucks! big time!

I awoke this morning in agony. The feeling in my toes kept on going - as my trapped nerves were definitely trapped beyond recognition today! I have also been bleeding on and off for 2 weeks now. And today it was accompanied by abdo pain too.

Bleeding whilst on Zoladex is never really a good thing at all... I am wondering now if the treatment is working at all. If it does not work - I do not know what that will mean for my next surgery... I am due to see my gynae at the end of the month - only another 2 weeks to go and I will be there and will be ready to ask all of these questions again. Especially why I am bleeding...

Anxieties are at a somewhat high at present...

Back to the hot water bottle. Hot baths and my cosy bed!

Love to you all
