update non endo related

I know that i have put a few pics up to dedicate my blog to endo awarness month and yes that is still the plan but my life isnt all endo that i deal with which everyone who reads knows well i had an ortohopedic appointmetn this morning and things didnt go so well. I have to have a build put on my left shoe to even out my leg length difference and then once that is done I also have to see the nurologist to see about geting on medication for the spasms. After the medication takes affect we are hoping that the meds will relax my muscles enough so that i can be braced because as oof now he can not position my foot in the position needed for braving he said it is very contracted which is not good i have very little range of motion in that ankle right now and he says that it needs bracing to strengthen it and if the bracing fails it will be surgery yucky trying to deal with one thing at a time and thursday will begin endo awarness month thank you to all my dedicated readers

Op in a month exactly today

very ready yet still kind of having ahard time with it hard to explain for sure but that is how it is ready for the oprospect of pain relief. i am also having a maraina inserted teh same time as surgery is being done yes that is birthcontrol but in my case we are hoping it slows the growth of the endo as it has not estrogen in it and only has progesterone estrogen is the hormone that endometriosis feeds on to grow.
so teretically i hystorectomy should be a cure or you would think but it isnt endommetriosis has a mind of its own and many people that i connect with in suport groups have had a hysterectomy only to still have pain because of endometriosis this isnt totally understood but many researchers are finding that some onplants of endometriosis produce their own suply of estrogen the fun of a desiease with a mind all its own it is definately a chalange but not one im going to let win ready for march for sure i want my life back cant wait to feel good agian even if it is for a few years
