The most important thing that I’ve learnt about endometriosis over the past five years is that it is a relentless disease.
For those of us who have it, this usually means a increased amount of pain to manage with, pain that seems to reinvent itself every year, finding new ways to baffle and upset you.
Strangely, this is also among the hardest aspects of endometriosis to explain to others. The idea that endometriosis symptoms don’t stay on a straight path. The despite the best efforts of our doctors and consultants the pain spreads and evolves, seemingly against logic.
This is proved by the varied ways in which it can present itself in so many different ways which vary from person to person.
Endometriosis (like life) finds a way (despite everyone’s best efforts).
