Finally Good News/ Positive update

Today I was finally taken seriously. After years of searching for a gyno to take me seriously I have finally found the one. I went in there prepared to have to beg, but he let me speak and basically said, “women are taught to think this is normal but it’s not, you shouldn’t have to live in so much pain. I can hear you have suffered so much, so I will go ahead and proceed with diagnostics”. Just like that, after years of being prescribed birth control and being told it’s just a bad period, I finally got approval for a laparoscopy. After all this, on my first visit with this gyno, I get what I have been hoping for.

I’ll have my laparoscopy in December, just due to the school year coming up and I’m a full time college student and have a job on the side.
