Declaring War on My Uterus...

Hi! My name is Jenn, otherwise known as Goose. I am 32 and married to my best friend. We have been married for almost 3 years and decided to start trying for a family a little over a year ago. 12 years ago, I was diagnosed with severe endometriosis and have had a total of 3 laproscopic surgeries to clear the endometriosis out of my abdomen. I have also been diagnosed with adenomyosis and last year found out that I have endometriosis on my diaphragm. I have been described by my doctors as "a challenge" and "a tough cookie."

This week, we met with a Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE) and found out that I have a mass inside my uterus. The game plan is to have an MRI to get a better look at the mass and to check on the progression of the endometriosis on my diaphragm. From there, I will go on 3 months of Lupron and then have surgery to clear out the mass and any endometriosis.

So, since my uterus has decided to be uncooperative, I am declaring war on it! I will use this blog to document my vents and adventures as I go to war against my uterus and try to convince it to get on board with growing our family.

My goal for the next 3 months, while I am on Lupron, is to get in the best possible shape so that I will be better able to recover from surgery.
