Hampshire NEAW Support Group

After decades of battling with endo, first trying to get a diagnosis, then surgery after surgery and facing endless more, also being diagnosed with adenomyosis, plus the prospect of living in constant daily pain with a whole concoction of pain meds and chronic fatigue, I was determined to take charge of my condition. In 2014 I decided to try a complementary, holistic and alternative approach to manage my condition. I do still get setbacks, however with a complete change in my diet and exercise regime, I have managed to avoid further surgery so far. Last year I completed a gruelling double marathon to raise funds for Endometriosis UK! A year on, and none the wiser, I found another challenge, and this year I completed a 100km trek over the Ridgeway, one of Britain's oldest pathways! In so doing, I hope to have helped raise awareness for this awful condition and also to show my fellow sufferers to never give up hope. When we started the support group, I was surprised that there were so many other ladies who were going through the same problems as I was. I hope we can support you in sharing experiences and knowledge to help make your endo journey a little more manageable!
