Endometriosis Awareness Event: Endomarch 2014

Thursday 13th March. The day of the Endomarch 2014. Put it in your diary, it's a date to remember! This is the date when Endometriosis Awareness will be shouted from the rooftops. It will take place in many country capitals, including;
  • Athens
  • Berlin
  • Dubai
  • Johannesburg
  • London
  • Mexico City
  • Rome
  • Stockholm
  • Washington D.C ......... AND MANY, MANY MORE! 
This is an internationally coordinated campaign where Endometriosis sufferers, their friends, families and doctors, will all come together to raise awareness. Hopefully the impact of this will make people stop and listen. People will hear our pleas for more awareness and our hear voices when we explain our struggles.

Sound's great right? I will hopefully be attending the Endomarch in London.

Around 176 million women worldwide suffer from Endometriosis. A chronic illness that to many people is invisible. But to those who suffer from it, it can turn their lives upside down. Much more awareness is needed about Endometriosis. The Endomarch will be a perfect opportunity to do just that!


The goals of this march falls within three categories..

  • To Empower
  • To Educate
  • To Effect Change

Come and join us in taking a stand against Endometriosis. Let us educate each other on this awful illness. Promote education within the medical field too. Once this is achieved, we can help change the outcome. How about finding a cure? Better diagnostics? Better treatment?

Anything will be possible... so let's start by marching!

Who's with me??

Endometriosis: Post op

Ok, so I thought I should update you all after my operation on Tuesday.  I have a lot of mixed emotions after the laparoscopy though and I promise to fill you all in soon. I'm sure many of you have felt the same way I'm feeling now so I will post in the near future about all the details. Sharing information is the best way to know we're not alone in this. But for the moment, I'm just getting my head around things and concentrating on recovery. UPDATED: Endometriosis was found in my ovaries as expected and removed. It was also found on my bowel, but it was left untreated. #MyEndoDiary ♡

A Day In The Life Of An Endo Girl - 16/04/13

Seeing as I've named my Blog 'My Endo Diary' I've decided to start this project, 'A Day In The Life Of An Endo Girl' to portray just a snippet of a day with Endometriosis. Women with Endo are not lazy. Some, such as myself suffer daily pain. Chronic pain. Sometimes mild, sometimes exhausting, sometimes severe. Small things hurt massively. What some people take for granted doing, can take all of my energy. Even down to doing the dishes or making food. Endo is unpredictable. Tomorrow may be a better day. It may be worse. If I look or sound OK one day it doesn't mean I'm better. I'm either hiding the pain from you (I've become quite good at this), having an 'up and down day' (explained below) or on the rare chance having a good day. Every day with Endo for me, is different. However at the moment, they all contain some sort of pain. So here's my first entry. 16/04/13                   5:45am Woken up by E...

Endometriosis And New Beginnings

I know I won't be alone in these thoughts on this subject.. Endometriosis and a new relationship..  What do you tell them? How much do you tell them? When do you bring it up?  A million questions have been overloading my mind lately as I start a new chapter in my life. The last few weeks have been a bit of a whirlwind for me. A good one! But, fast moving, exciting and terrifying all at once. The scariest part of it all is how endometriosis will impact everything. Right now, it is behaving. But we all know how quickly that changes. I don't want my life revolving around Endo. It has taken over way too much of it already! Now, I have started enjoying my life again, I'm terrified it will be snatched away to pain once again. I have shared The Spoon Theory with my new boyfriend, who was extremely understanding about it. Which actually made me feel so much at ease. I have explained a few of the symptoms. He knows I get 'bad days' and that i'll need rest ...
