Im in the same boat and it’s so soul destroying, so sending you loveHi everyone - reviving this thread because I'm at my wits end. I had an MRI a few weeks ago as my gynecologist is starting to suspect endo after 12+ months of chronic pelvic pain and ruling out various other things. I got a call from her today and she told me the MRI didn't find anything "abnormal". So now I feel even more lost, still in pain with no answers. Should I be demanding a laparoscopy or is endo basically ruled out from not finding anything on the MRI? Would be really grateful for any advice.
I had a pelvic MRI about 6 years ago, didn’t show any abnormalities. Last year went to my GPs complaining of all the symptoms of endo that I feel no one is taking seriously. Referred me to the gynae. She looked through my notes and said “I want to send you for another MRI before we even discuss a laparoscopy”. & this was from the trusts consultant gynae.
I honestly felt gutted knowing that the MRI will probably be the same as the one 6 years ago and a massive waste of time. But please keep persevering with them. Hopefully we’ll both get a laparoscopy and answers soon x
