What are your endometriosis symptoms like?
Having endometriosis, for me, was like permanently having the stomach flu. The pain was so bad, it was like a knife twisting into my pelvis and by extension, my intestines, forcing me to retreat to the bathroom. I would often pass out from the pain while sitting on the toilet and wake up on the bathroom floor, sometimes an hour later. My periods would last for up to 20 days and I was calling in sick to work for days at a time, simply because I could not leave my bathroom.
