Be a VOICE Not an Echo
Part 2:
I finally saw my third OBGYN.
My old one I had to leave because he was not listening to me let alone they started to ignore me because I was calling too much.
I know what I want
I recently found my new OBGYN this past December and we had a 2 1/2 hour conversation about how I have been not wanting but needing a hysterectomy and even though I am only 30 going on 31 with no kids. I’m 100% still wanting a hysterectomy. He knows this but he said since I didn’t respond to lupron, depo provera, or orlissa, he is not sure if the endo pain is all that is causing my overall pain.
And guess what...
He scheduled me for a colonoscopy and an endoscopy to make sure nothing else was going on. I had that last Wednesday, December 26. Guess what, everything was absolutely normal. He also has me scheduled for physical therapy to try before my next appointment with him which is January 16 to see how everything is going. I am praying he will help give me my life back.
Where we are now
In the meantime, I’ve been in and out of the ER department and I am hesitant every time I go in because of past medical gaslighting and accusations of me faking pain or being a drug addict. I am so thankful for you all and this website. It has been such a blessing to be able to share my experiences here with others and have support. So much love and blessings and will keep everyone posted
