We're officially kicking off our "Meet Your Endo-Sister" series with the owner and writer of the Understanding- Endo blog, Sara. This post provides a quick snapshot of Sara's endometriosis journey so we can continue to build awareness and help other women understand that symptoms and diagnosis time vary greatly from woman to woman.  "You should always lead by example, which is why I filled out my own form to share my endometriosis snapshot journey with you." Endo-Sister Name: Sara T. - Blog Owner & Writer of Understanding Endo

A lot of women with endometriosis or those who suspect they have endometriosis want to know what other women experience with this disease. It greatly varies from woman to woman, which is why I think it's hard to diagnosis endometriosis in the first place and why it takes well over five years. This series will provide endometriosis snapshots so you can understand just how complicated endometriosis can be.  Today is an exciting day, ladies!
After some hard work and pushing through some bad pain/symptom days, I have finally completed a Google Form that will help provide us a snapshot summary of our sisters with endo, which will include their symptoms, along with other helpful information that will help spread awareness of endometriosis and hopefully teach other women who are struggling to find a diagnosis quicker by understanding how endometriosis affects woman differently and why it should be considered. As I receive each form submission, my heart goes out to every woman that hits submit. |
