Diary of a Woman with Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a mysterious condition that commonly occurs in ovaries, it has no known causes, yet affects many women out there. Before its diagnosis, one could suffer terrible mentral cramps, after its diagnosis, terrible mood swings. This is my account of how endometriosis has affected MY life and how it is continuing to affect ME and those around me. How it has shaped my life and I hope to bring about the awareness of this condition as it affects more women out there then we know it.

Resistance is futile

i have been resisting the urge to post a blog here as it is usually a not a pretty read. It is also important for me or people like me to be more positive, get on with life and enjoy it with laughter.

(cos my TCM doctor says that for the woman, our hormonal cycle is closely tied in with our emotional status, which means if u r unhappy, ur hormones are unlikely to perform optimally. Which perhaps explains the numerous operations that I have usually occurs AFTER a pretty depressing moment of my life which I perhaps have too cleverly hide it under wraps and pretend that all's well.)

I guess trying to be positive about something you cant let go off is not easy. Especially when you get daily reminders of it.

So I'm going to lift it up to God, to decide what He wants to do with my life. Its in His hands now!
