Also, endometriotic lesions can develop their own nerve supply, thereby creating a direct and two-way interaction between lesions and the central nervous system, potentially producing a variety of individual differences in pain that can, in some women, become independent of the disease itself.[3]
Wow! I didn't know that, Helen! Is there a published paper to this effect?
Not sure,I just saw it on Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endometriosis so there must be some studies for it to exist on there ? ? had a look and found this
http://www.endo-resolved.com/nerve_pain.html but the experiments have been on rats so far. I am not a sufferer so haven't researched it at all to be honest.
Cheers,
Helen

Hi Helen
Hope your going to practise saying 'penis' out loud - that would be the one that I think would get me!
Hope you're doing OK.
Cheers

People will think I have tourette's.
At last things are happenning for me. It's taken 3 and 1/4 years and I now have an appointment to see a proposed surgeon and this tribunal to see if I can get any disability (Money, WOW!) in the space of 5 days !!
I may only get the industrial injuries benifit (but it should be back dated) but I am going for them all. The 'rules' are
so ridiculous tho'. I have had to join
another forum to help me make my way around our English benifit system, which is a shambles.
Just as well I can't work

too much time spent battling the powers that be.
Hope you are well (and your Mum)
Helen
