Hello,
I was diagnosed by lapo in 1999 when my OB/GYN was just going in to remove a cyst and found endo. In 2001, I had a second lapo where the specialist went in to laser out more. Symptoms prior may not match because of the cyst but I had lower back pain, painful intercourse, and light periods.
After the lapo, I now have sever cramps but may be due to scar tissue. I will be TTC in August.
Good luck and hope you get the appropriate treatment.

Julie
