My Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, Hysterectomy, and other Health Heroes

As I said, I was fortunate to be plugged into numerous online sources for support during my recovery from my hysterectomy, and for support related to endometriosis and adenomyosis. If it wasn't for these sources, I don't think I would have made it through my recovery because my "real" friends were far from supportive. So, I am very happy to share these gems with you.

Endometriosis and Adenomyosis Support

Endometriosis Research Center (http://www.endocenter.org/). A wealth of information on endometriosis. They have an active listserve and a facebook page. What's really great is that they do not take funds from pharmaceuticals. The ladies on this listserve were so helpful in sharing my grief over endometriosis and adenomyosis.


Center for Endometriosis Care (www.centerforendo.com). These are the people who gave me my life back. They are ENDOMETRIOSIS SPECIALISTS. They ONLY SEE endometriosis patients. They know how to meticulously remove/excise ALL endometriosis.


http://www.endometriosissurgeon.com/. This endometriosis specialty center in Bend, Oregon. They too are specialists of endometriosis who remove/excise ALL endometriosis.

http://www.endometriosistreatmentnewyork.com/. This is another endometriosis specialty center located in New York City.


Hysterectomy Support
Hystersisters (http://www.hystersisters.com/). LIFESAVERS!!!! An online, VERY ACTIVE forum for women who expect to or have undergone hysterectomies. I learned more from these ladies than I have from any health care professional. LOVE THEM!!!

And, one of my favorite blogs:

Although she doesn't know this, this blog got me through some really tough times as I was grieving after my hysterectomy. A very gifted writer. http://www.mudandlotus.com/
