Thank you everyone.Sorry but this is long.
Chrissy- I am much better today, the other day was just rough. Thank you for asking. As far as weight loss goes...I was a professional musical theater performer and toured the world until all of sudden I was in constant pain and gain 120 lbs. Leotards don't really stretch with you. So When this all started I did what every dancer does I cut calories and increased exercise. Every time I gained more weight I would cut more calories and increase my exercise, turns out I was starving myself. That was no good. During that time I also cut out all gluten, sugar, and red meat. Then I took an allergy test and found out I was allergic to alot of stuff so I cut all of it out on top of the above restrictions. I stopped gaining weight but hadn't lost any. Currently I am taking metformin, chromium, and alamax to help with weight loss, supplements to help with inflammation, and am working with a nutritionist. For excercise, i am having more and more trouble everyday working out because of the sever pain it causes. So far the pool and yoga are helping with that but still no weight loss and the lupron has actually caused me to gain more weight. I am hoping for a miracle

Olivia- How I eat is above and I totally agree with you on the organic food. I am not always 100% but I am trying and will make a more earnest effort. The heat pack helps me a great deal, but I only have one that plugs into the wall. where do I get a heat wrap? I hope lupron works very well for you!

Kalyn- Your pain sounds very similar to mine. I hate the way percaset makes my head feel but it helps with the pain. Do you ever black out or vomit from you pain?

Have any of your doctors ever offered to remove your ovaries after trying everything else?
I am going to try pure progestin next...I am also going to see a specialist at Cedar-Sinai...but if none of that works I think that is what I am going to do. I just want it to stop. Best of luck to all of you! Tons of love!
