My Endometriosis Story
If you've known me for a while, you know some of this.  If you are new here, welcome! 

I was diagnosed with Endometriosis (when the lining of the uterus, called endometrium, grows outside the uterus causing much pain and potential infertility) in 1990 and I had laparoscopic surgery a year later.  All the endometrium outside my uterus was lasered away. In order to protect my fertility, my doctor recommended I go on shots indefinitely. (That is until I ready to have children, if I could have them. I was told I had a 50-50 chance.) So for 5 years my cycle was on pause.  But when I had a cervical cancer scare, I was recommended my by my oncologist to stop the shots.  So I did and all the pain came back. I started taking 1200mg of ibuprofen, then Tylenol with codeine and finally got a prescription for percocet that I never filled.  So I went on a quest to find how to heal my body naturally and it started with food and a little book called Fit For Life. For the next 5 or so years I researched and changed my diet, mostly Endometroisis books and learning about the raw food diet. I found that raw foods and juiced fresh fruits and vegetables could heal so much! Basically I would go all raw foods 3 days up to when my cycle started, had only raw juice during and then back to raw foods for another 3 days. The weeks in-between I would eat whatever, not knowing that I should have continued eating unprocessed foods at least. But this was a lot of work! It was a lot when I was single and not sustainable when starting a family. About a year and a half after my first son was born, I did more research and ended up doing my best to eat "clean" and unprocessed.

Thankfully I discovered oils in 2013 and found that between diet and these oils I found relief both physically and emotionally. How do I know? Because I was skeptical act first and would let some of the oils run out and then I would suffer the following cycle. So these are the oils that I never do without.
