Guest guest Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Ladies, I am so excited! I've decided to use Dr. Darrow in Boston and will be making an appt as soon as I hear back from his office on Monday. My parents are driving me up and we'll be staying with relatives. I can't wait! I went to my gyn today and we traced back my problems to the implants without a doubt. I first complained in 11/99 3 months after the implants. He noted " complaining of joint pain, swelling in hands and feet, fatigue " . From there it went downhill. I went to probably a dozen doctors, had 4 surgeries for endometriosis and adhesions (which he thinks were an immune reaction...) and nobody could find anything else wrong with me. They all thought I was a mental case! It's really a strange feeling to actually know what's wrong with me. I'm so thrilled! He prayed with me today and I know I felt God telling me that it's going to be ok. I will be used as a voice to other women who are either thinking of getting them or who are sick from them already. It will all be worth it if I can save just one life. Even if I don't ever improve, I will still believe and trust in God. He is in control and He's a much better driver than me!!! I actually got out of the house today and went to the mall and to lunch with my mom and even went to Target! That's a pretty big feat for me! I'm normally incapacitated 90% of the time. It's a very rare occasion if I leave the house other than to pick up my kids! Thank you ladies, you have saved my life and now I'll save some too! I love you all and pray for you every day!!!
