How about some research into curing the disease rather than continuing to put the onus on women dealing with the pain? men wouldn’t have to put up with this tripe. #endometriosis#endo
“The disease can travel throughout the body, so in many ways it behaves like cancer. But why does endometriosis behave like cancer while rarely becoming cancer?” Great to see some scientific research on disease tissue. We need more of this instead of drs telling us 2 meditate
@theendoinformer @RCObsGyn Be prepared (even though you can’t really be prepared, I was led to believe I’d leave hospital and never have to deal with anything endo again) this disease may significantly impact your life, even after excision surgery.
@nancynursez637@washingtonpost Last week after specialist excision surgery with endo removed I thanked surgeon for believing me. She was shocked and asked “Why wouldn’t I?” Believing patients should be the norm not exception.
#endometriosisawareness More and more pts are leaving their own region or country to find relief. The effort speaks to how disruptive endometriosis pain is. We need to hear their pleas and develop local resources to care for them…https://t.co/908ypJLo0s https://t.co/aUqO509YbQ
@nancynursez637 Nancy, to achieve what you have with Nancy’s Nook, which is a facts only zone, is incredible. I hope you know how many lives you’ve improved by empowering ppl with facts. Thank you.
Well isn’t this nice. An #endometriosis masterclass with no women.
Men have contributed hugely including my male surgeon who is a legend.
But a panel like this is like having a masterclass for erectile dysfunction that only includes women.
I’ll go on your panel if you wish
Putting together the scientific program for this exciting #endometriosis masterclass. We have an exceptional international faculty and places are limited to 15 delegates (9 left now). register here: https://t.co/cjX6KN9pAB
@JustinQuill Terrible for the athletes. This is the same govt that locked down an entire state because it incorrectly believed Covid had been transmitted via pizza box…
@PeterFarago75 Apparently you are quite correct. Not all GPs offering it though. If the governments were truly serious about getting as many ppl vaxxed as poss they should be doing just that - vaccinating as many ppl who want it
Just called the Vic govt Covid vaccine booking line and they refused to book me in because I’m under 40.
Me: I thought I could opt for AZ?
Them: you are not eligible in our rollout.
What an absolute mess.
#vaccine
It affects 1/9 women (including me) and costs the Australian economy $9.7billion annually mainly in lost productivity, but still “Endometriosis research remains chronically underfunded”.
It’s time for #endometriosis to be properly researched.

Could @VicGovDH please find a better way 2 communicate new exposure sites. The search by latest added function was good when there were only a few, but with 263 sites that function isn't much help anymore... It's critical public health info 4 people who want to do the right thing
