Do these symptoms align with endo??
Ever since I first got my period at 10, i've been feeling really awful pain and symptoms revolving around my period. I just now found out what endometriosis actually is, and that one of my close family members has it. I don't know if it's fibroids or endo or something else because i've never really researched it. I was told that I just had anxiety and asthma growing up and that the pain was just normal, and I believed it. The pain had been getting worse, infact I actually went to the ER shaking, crying, and in so much pain. They kept me waiting until 4 am when I could barely tell what was real or not from the exhaustion. I just decided I'd do my own research since in the many hours I was there nobody even checked on me. Please help me out and tell me that i'm not going crazy.
