LOL! I can bearly stand or do anything.
I remember last time I was in the ER a few months ago.. I was feeling good enough to work out so I started again, started having sharp pain in my pelvic/groin area, thought I pulled a muscle. Went t ER and ...
What pisses me off the most is a lot of the websites that offer "help" for women who suffer from endo suggest exercising to relieve the pain. How can you exercise when you're in pain? And when you're not in pain you're busy recovering from pain. H...
Wow.. I hear ya on the pain. People dont understand how much it hurts. It really does interrupts EVERYTHING in your life.
I have no relatives with the same issues, so when I wasn't haven't periods for about 6 months then it was REALLY painful, I ...
I was "unofficially diagnosed" with endometriosis maybe when I was around 19. My pain began when I got my very first period the VERY first day I got it when I was 13, which was at my menarche. The reason I write unofficial is because I have refuse...
Hey Elina
Thanks I know.. I'm not going to get it. I actually have a former professor who I am going to start seeing for Acupuncture and Herbs ( I study acupuncture, but my focus is Oncology not women's health) So I'm hoping that will work. I was...
Hello Anya,
I'm 25 and have endometriosis as well. Unless your endo has spread to every part of your functioning ovaries, fallopian tubes, etc. PLEASE DO NOT GET A HYSTERECTOMY! Dotors push young women to get hysterectomies everyday - and the res...
Hey All! I'm new and fairly young, I was diagnosed with severe endometriosis and am battling that. I do want to have kids in the future (not anytime soon) but my doctor is pushing a hysto, so over the past year or so I have been really doing resea...
You know I remember going through Discovery Health Pregnancy/Parenting Group and thought it was FANTASTIC! Can't believe I forgot to mention it here! Thanks for bringing it up!
Hello everybody!

A group dedicated to sharing information about Sickle Cell Disease including Sickle Cell Anemia
Dear Ladies:
I am so excited to be a part of this group! I think WEGO health is a great forum for like-minded health activists to get together and share common stories, insight, and great web site hints. I've learned a lot from the different wome...
I am a mom of triplets and had a very hard time conceiving, but finally did, with the help of IVF with ICSI. I originally got pregnant with quadruplets, but lost 1 early on, and the remainder of my pregnancy was high risk, with gestational diabete...
I spent a lot of time on thebump.com on the high risk pregnancy board there. For more specific concerns, I really liked preeclampsia.org. The forums there were very informative. I also really liked dlife.com. It's a general website for diabetes, b...

Ellen S said… - Welcome to WEGO Health Susan. It's great to see that you've joined our Migraine group - we're so glad you're here!
Are you a Migraineur, or are you looking to understand more about Migraine from a different perspective? Many Migraineurs come because they want to help someone else they know, but end up finding wonderful resources themselves as well.
We'd love to hear more about your Migraine experiences. I hope you'll feel free to jump right on in the conversation. That's the fabulous thing about WEGO Health.... the people who are so interested in not only sharing, but learning and supporting too. Here is a great place to start - a brand new introduction thread. (So sorry - the link button seems to be temporarily out of order) http://community.wegohealth.com/group/migraine/forum/topics/introductions-1 I hope you'll consider being the first to add your story!

- Welcome to WEGO Health Susan Mees!
What brings you to our growing community of Health Activists? I love to see more Librarians (like myself) joining the community!
I encourage you to check out our Groups page and join any that may peak your interest. Groups are a wonderful place to ask questions, join discussions, and engage with others who have similar interests. My personal favorite is the Women's Health group - feel free to join, it's an excellent resource!
Discussion threads and blog posts are other great ways to get your questions answered while introducing yourself to the community!
I look forward to hearing from you more!
Stay well :)
Lisa
