thanks perna
and thanks for mentioning about teens still developing and such... the reason that my gynecologist said she was reluctant for me to have a laparoscopy was that I was still young and that there was risks... I assumed that she just meant the small risks in anesthetics? She may have.
I'm going to discuss it in more detail with her though, I'm still not sure about having a laparoscopy, but the pains are still there and theyre so much more worse than when I first started having tests etc. I had an ultrasound and that showed nothing up, although they told me that it's not often that endo shows up on an ultrasound.
