Are your personal relationships struggling because of Endometriosis?
by Melissa on January 21, 2012 in Thoughts and Emotions
I sometimes get these feelings. They come out of nowhere and I don’t even know why they pop up. Actually, that is a lie…. I do know why…. it is usually some silly girly movie or something a friend says about what their partner did for them or something like that. Well, it triggers this [...]
What goes in, must come out! Why I am realising that a good detox is the only way to really cure Endometriosis!
by Melissa on January 20, 2012 in Detoxing, Featured Articles
I listened to a really interesting talk today about plastics. It was an audio by Daniel Vitalis on the David Wolfe’s Membership Forum. In it he describes how many of the common plastics we have in our lives contain Xenoestrogens, which he illustrates as directly affecting our hormones. It is said that these Xenoestrogens actually [...]

by Melissa on January 19, 2012 in Share your story!, Words of encouragement
The last couple of weeks, I have been researching other blogs and known Food Guru’s out there and to be honest, they often make me feel like I have so far to still travel with my healing. I look at what they eat and how they treat their bodies and I am filled with admiration [...]

by Melissa on January 16, 2012 in Detoxing, The Endometriosis Diet
Being engaged to James (I am loving those words!), has really opened my eyes to the joys of flavours in foods and cooking.

What is Interstitial Cystitis and how does it relate to Endometriosis?
by Melissa on January 15, 2012 in Endometriosis Symptoms, Possible Endometriosis Causes
To be honest I had never even heard of this condition until a few months ago. I figured my symptoms that I had with my bladder, were all related to the Endometriosis and didn’t think it could actually be a completely separate condition. What’s interesting about Interstitial Cystitis is that many of the symptoms we experience with [...]
Do you find you often feel “alone”? Do you associate alot with emotions of “being alone”, “loneliness” and “abandonement”? Could we share this, along with Endometriosis?
by Melissa on January 14, 2012 in Featured Articles, Thoughts and Emotions
Looking back over last year, the hardest event, was the passing of my dad. During that time, the hardest emotion was the emotion of…feeling alone, deserted, everything was meaningless and insecure. I wanted support and something to change. I felt so very, very alone. Isolated, separated and lost. To be honest, I hadn’t felt these emotions for [...]
I am doing everything right! Why am I still getting boughs of Endometriosis Pain out of nowhere?
by Melissa on January 13, 2012 in Endometriosis Symptoms, Featured Articles, Healthy Lifestyle choices, The Endometriosis Diet
Sometimes it feels like Endometriosis is just a weird kind of curse. It gives you no warning of it’s looming pain and it feel like you can’t seem to win against the battle of it all. Pain seems to pop out of nowhere and the spiral seems to just escalate, leaving you lying in bed, [...]
The sad reality of Endometriosis seems to really affect me, on a very personal level.
by Melissa on January 10, 2012 in Featured Articles, Thoughts and Emotions
I went searching for some other Endo Blogs on the internet yesterday. While I was reading through many of them, they seemed to follow a certain pattern which kinda saddened me. Every single one that I came across told the story of a poor girl, struggling with Endo, while taking a series of hormonal treatments, drugs and [...]

by Melissa on January 10, 2012 in Featured Articles, Infertility and Endometriosis, Personal Experience
One of the worst symptoms of Endometriosis, would have to be the painful sex we get with it! It is just like a total slap in the face! I mean really…. do we want to test our relationships any more than the emotional ups and downs, the anger outbursts and the “can’t do much today [...]

I just wanted to say, how enlightening your Site is, a dear friend of mine, has gone through hell and back, it has taken them three and a half years to finally diagnose that she has Endometriosis, and as a result it is quite advanced, she is now waiting for an operation. I have been reading up on the subject, because I want to be there for her, and to do that I need to understand the problems she is encountering, many thanks for laying it out so that it can be easily understood.
