Mwebale nnyo for the opportunity to raise awareness about this monster that is endometriosis!!
Thank you for this Sheila, Bump love ladies. For me I have had this terrible pain for the last 23yrs.of my life and didn't know there may be internal organ damage(s).Thought if my maternal Aunties and paternal Aunties had the same pain...then it's the norm!
I would throw up,have pain in the legs,bones from my pelvis down,used to take painkillers, like ibuprofen, diclofenac, diclofenac drips it was madness the first day.
It is still painful, but now I use diclofenac suppositories, day 1&2 .My Dr.Aunty helped me find that solution about 8yrs now.
Kindly share the gynecologist 's contact so that I may also go and get checked .
Sheila I send you cyber hugs love.
Hey Bump Love. Thank you for giving Sheila the Stage to talk about this.
Stage 4 EndoWarrior here, and it took 15 years for me to be properly diagnosed. This was 17 years after my Adenomyosis Diagnosis.
It has been quite the journey, Some days I am in so much pain I honestly just want to give up on life. But proper nutrition, Exercise, Surrounding myself with a Community that cares Plus being in Endo Support Groups, Lots of Prayer, Maintaining the right combination of meds, both for pain management and Hormonal ones and taking it a day at a time, gets me through.
I pray that one day, Endometriosis will be an easy to diagnose and treat thing. That our Work places will be kinder to Us when we cannot be at work. And when insurance companies will be willing to cover cost of Surgeries n Medication.
Thank you so much for bringing this up and letting us know there is hope.
Am my daughter is having the same condition.
Sheila dearest, thank u for talking to us.
It is well.
You are going to be such a testimony for us all.
KANSIIME ❤❤❤
This is what I call pure Testimony.
If keep positive was a person. This lady is hope itself.thanx for keeping the faith and positive mind.
But for the grace of God, there go I :)
It was nice hearing and learning from Sheila's story. Sad that she had to lose her fallopian tubes. I'm an endo survivor, 3 surgeries and countless hormonal suppression treatments. Today I am a proud mum of 3. It's a miracle! God can do it and will do it for you Sheila.
Me I fear going for the surgery please can you tell me more about it
I praise God who gave you the gift of motherhood :) Praying you continue to heal as you find out what really works best for you!! All I know is that God saw this coming and allowed it. I can trust that it is well as He is with me🤗 As He is with you!! Always!
@@wandulagabriel9374 Pray for courage. I put it for a long time too until the pain was unbearable. I wished I had done it sooner but had nobody to advise me. I'm glad this is being discussed more often.
@@sheilawavamunno9372 Amen Sheila!
Could you please share your hospital and doctor
Was also diagnosed with endometriosis at bethany Hospital after visiting many gyns with no conclusive diagnosis. There is a doctor there called Andabati, he is the first doctor who explained everything so well and after performed laparascopy on me. Well since then the pain is no more plus I saw results. It's been 3 years since and am very grateful I went for the surgery.
Yes he is good l know him
Glad to hear you are doing well! Do join our support group so we can walk this journey together 🙏🏾
@@sheilawavamunno9372 thank you so much for sharing your story. Have you also checked out your vitamins and mineral make up? Have you also read about how food affects our bodies? Have you heard of Tia Mowry? Check her out find out how she changed her life.
I had adenomyosis which also got worst.
He's amazing! Had wasted so much time moving around until I went to Bethany
Woooow Sheila is my Primary OG, very intelligent lady. That lady you see there has a record of topping class from P.1 to P.7.
Glad to see her on bump love,thanks for sharing your life Sheila.
I was "toppled" by other two students ... I remember that much😅
@@sheilawavamunno9372 for anaemia ,boil ovacado leaves (free from pesticides)and drink like water,within two weeks you will see a very big improvement.Have a quickest recovery .
I had Endo when I was a teenager into my 20s . I had such painful periods to the point that i would vomit because of the pain. I never got treatment, but one thing I did after lots of research was change my eating habits entirely. I cut out sugar, dairy, and processed foods, bleached foods, rice wheat sodas, anything that's not plant based. I eat clean from using only olive oil or ovacado oil. Very rarely do i eat out, and when i do, im very picky about where i eat. I had a tranvaginal exam, and the gyno said i was all clear, and I have not felt period pains in over 10 years. I have regular periods that last about 4 days. When I'm on my periods I make it a point to drink green juice and eat lots of steamed foods. My whole life now relovles around what I eat, basically.
I refused contraceptives to treat Endo. Actually, a friend warned me against them and encouraged me just continue eating the way I eat plus excercise. I should also add that I take vit B, omega 3, and vit C supplements religiously. There is a group on Club house that I follow. Lot's of discussions about Endo and how many women have used nutrition to treat Endo. It's such an amazing group. I encourage anyone interested to join.
Is club house a chanel on youtube
@@jmercyaturindakarungi247 It's an app. You can find it on your phone. Global app with live discussions.
Thanks for sharing, I have fibroid too and have been told to either get pregnant or surgery. I have chosen to change my diet hopefully things will change.
However, I have a niece who experience painful period and vomit sometimes, now with this information I will take her for check up
Nutrition is certainly key in managing endometriosis. Very glad you're much better🙏🏾
Oh WoW Flourish! This is so informative. Thanks for sharing. Much Love ❤. P
But Rachel your hair❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥am distracted
🤣🤣🤣🤣munsasire
Sheila you serve a powerful God who sees you. May he heal you and cover you with his peace and strength in
Jesus name amen 🙏🏾
Today I have nothing to add just support for the guest Sheila and the bump love ladies you guys are so good in giving someone an ear and asking the right questions respectfully. Please host dorah mwima 🙏🏽
Hi beautiful people.
Thank you so much Sheila for sharing your story.
I’m 24 and I too was diagnosed with stage 4 endo at about 20.
Those two doctors are also my doctors and they’re amazing! The Doctor in Kenya is the first person who ever listened to my story comprehensively and he’s the one that diagnosed me with it. I’ve had 4 surgeries since and we’re still moving strong by the grace of God.
Let’s continue to spread awareness about endo🙏🏾it’s terrible and 1 in 10 ladies out there are in pain and don’t have to be.
Glad endo was caught, and I hope your quality of life is much better🙏🏾 Really thankful for good doctors!! Praying you don't have to have more surgeries... Eh this endo journey! Thankful for God's grace that sustains us... indeed to creating more awareness!!
Stay strong ❤
Went to the same primary school with Sheila. She was always number one in class. Thank u for sharing
Naye banange!!
All my love and prayers. This my Nabuuma. From Rehema Mudondo
Im also convinced she was in the same school as me.
So wonderful to read comments from KGS OGs :) Mwebale ku watchinga!!
@@rehemakiiryam3456 Rehema!!!! I remember you well-well 🤗
Hello Sheila, thank you for sharing your story. Endometriosis may be more common than we diagnose it as doctors. It's taught as a topic in medical school but taking it out of the school to practice is another. I will not just stop at managing dysmenorrhoea as usual but will do more to rule out Endometriosis.
I am impressed with the mindset in beating Endometriosis. God heal you
Thank you for wanting to do more. I have since learnt that many things are taught but never practiced firsthand and doctors are not reading up on current issues of the body. Mainly because it used to be a rare occurrence.
Thank you daktari!! For wanting to do more :)
Thank you for hosting Sheila 💝💝 thank you for raising awareness about Endometriosis. I live with stage 4 too and it's a trip. She articulated what it's like so well. It affects us differently so hearing other people's experiences and they're coping is super encouraging.
Hello there, kindly help with a doctor's contact who can help give proper diagnosis for this condition. We suspect my mum could have it.
Oh my GOD, so i watched this last week but I somehow have found myself re-watching. First, i want to thank you for the endless research you make for us (audience/subscribers/bump lovers) and a very big Thank you to Ms. Sheila for her bravery and willingness to share her story. This brings me to my question, is there a way we could bring her doctor (the one who diagnosed her) to tell us more about this Endometriosis disease (in a Doctor's perspective). I feel like we need more information on this topic. However, again a BIG BIG THANK YOU. Again am not sure why i re-watched but the chills still re-appear.
Hullo Laura, thank you for re-watching! The doctor who diagnosed me moved to Kenya ...but there's another one really invested in Endometriosis. Bump Love will hopefully host him (eventually) as they had earlier wanted but the schedules didn't work out.
I was diagnosed with endometriosis 5 years ago. I can understand anyone going through it. It is not an easy journey. I have cried alot till I got tired of it. Endometriosis changes your life completely. One thing I bless the Lord for is that I am a believer. If it wasn't for God, I wouldn't be hopeful.
Yes!!!! Only by God's grace am I able to continue to live with love, peace, joy and hope :)
@@sheilawavamunno9372 Faith doesn't disappoint. I am glad that you are hopeful as well.
Dear Shelia, May God cut it out from the root. May you live to testify. May God satisfy you with long life. My you rejoice all your days. And I pray that you will lack in nothing. The Joy of the Lord is your strength.
Amiina 🙏🏾 Thank you 🤗
@@sheilawavamunno9372 Amen
Thanks Sheila (my classmate at St. Theresa) for sharing your story.
It's so touching but may you heal dear.
Wow... OG!! You have a good memory!! Wasn't I ahead of you though? Thank you for watching :)
And our head prefect. I remember Sheila so well. My prayer for you dear girl. I love your faith
Thank you bumplove, we need this. Women suffer in silence and we need to break the stigma. Endometriosis is very painful and expensive condition ignored by many to the extent that it is not even covered by insurances yet the meds and surgeries are quite expensive.
Kyogerekko Brenda!! It's very expensive.... the only way I could afford surgery was through the generosity of family and friends. Insurance companies should include us bambi!!
Am totally in shock. I did not know there is such an illness. Please have more of these talks. Thanks Bump love
Thank you for watching! Glad to know you learned about Endo!
Is that what they used to call “ekikulukuto”. A girl in my neighborhood used to be gossiped about mbu yalwaala ekikulukuto. Very sad that there was /is stigma surrounding that chronic condition and girls/women are made fun of. Thanks for sharing your story @sheila! Good luck with your future endeavours ❤
Wow thanks Sheila for sharing. My sister is being treated by Dr Sokwala and from your description it sounds like him. Am so glad you’re feeling better.
Glad your sister is receiving treatment. Please encourage her to join the support group whose numbers are in the description. I don't know Dr.Sokwala ..but glad there are more ob-gyns addressing endo.
I can fully understand the pain she is narrating and even worse. i went to many hospitals that diagnosed me with endometriosis at first (the pain is so dreading that you hate life because of over bleeding ur constantly anemic this is a situation where you literally push out clots like ur pushing a baby) and no amount of pain killers can help you i would take overdose, but nothing would work its worse than labor pains.
It always starts with small, small fibroids that then grow and become very big that you will need surgery. when i did the first surgery the situation got worse where i got Adhesions (these are like rubber bands that attach your organs together) that my stomach was stuck to the back. After the surgery the pain even got worse than before i went to almost all the big hospitals in Kampala and doctors couldn't find exactly where the issue was i suffered for almost a year and i was tired of going to Hospitals as doctors couldn't understand the pain i was narrating to the extent that they thought i was making up the pain.
After that i told God that i was tired with life and am ready to die i won’t try any hospital again until God himself shows me where to go. And one day God led me to Ruby Hospital where i found DR Ozele and the issue was diagnosed and i had to go through another surgery to rectify everything. (Being a Christian who had prayed over the situation to change i told God that if i was going to be operated again and still suffer i don't want to leave the operating room alive. let me die there.)
i then made it out of surgery and ever since i have never gone through that pain my periods are normal. Thank God i didn't lose any tubes or anything and now what i have learnt is i have to pray for my Uterus everyday and cleanse it with the blood of JESUS.
Hugs love .....God loves you
Thank you for trusting God..bless you keep praying and trusting
Amen 🙏 🙏
Literally I go through painful periods,the blood clots come out and whenever they are coming its super painful,could it be the same thing?
Hi Judy, thanks for sharing. I have endometriosis and it is at grade 3. I have passed through hell during my pees. I really need your help dear on how I can go through this situation. I was had an open surgery for fibriods, but still pain didn't ho. I was advised to do laparoscopy but during the process, the doctor found out that I had a frozen pelvis and couldn't do much. He later advised to go in for an open surgery which iam afraid of.
Thank you Bump Love for hosting Sheila. Very informative show!
Taking cloves and ginger tea helps to cleanse up the reproductive system. Period cramps are now history for me.
Certain foods are certainly anti-inflammatory.... glad you no longer have period cramps. Endo though is a different monster altogether!!
How do we take them?
@@norahpounds5776 Just boil a few cloves and ginger in water and take as tea. You can add sugar or better taken without sugar. Take in the weeks leading towards the periods.
Thanks Shiela for sharing, i am also in the journey with Endometriosis & Symptoms. when you talk of the pain...OMG i understand it all. A number of times I've been rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night coz of the extreme pain that i thought could take my life. Our stories seem similar, i also started my periods at the age of 14 but with a lot of pain. In the beginning i thought it was normal and along the way i was told that when you give birth the pain stops, i had my first child at 21 now a mother of three and i am 38 but the pain never ever stopped instead intensified. But thank God i managed to locate a doctor last year through radios awareness programs and i am going through treatment and the process of diagnosis was similar to what you explained.i am now in the process of scheduling for a surgery, was a little scared but i feel encouraged by your story. Thanks again for sharing
Comments like yours really make me glad I shared. Especially as people may understand that one can have children and it won't sort the endo. But that those who live with Endo and want families to know that there is hope :) I am encouraged by you too!! Thank you for watching and commenting. Please do get the help you need!! Praying for your healing on the journey. God's with you!!
What a wonderful and necessary topic of discussion. I send peace and grace to any woman battling a reproductive healtg issue.
Thanks Bump love for spreading awareness. I'd love to address Angie's comment at around 29:40. I'm a woman in my 30s that isn't married or a mother either. I think there's a narrative that we must be depressed all the time. In fact, past a certain age, a certain acceptance and peace comes that is hard to explain. Far from depressed, we've found meaning and fullness in our lives. We've become mature women through a different journey and our lives are just as full. Sheila is beautiful, perfectly articulate, mature, balanced -- she stands her ground while being perfectly calm and friendly. She's a good representative for us single childless women. I feel so proud. I'm open to marriage and family if the right Christian man comes along but lately haven't felt that I lack anything. I just wanted to say please don't make the guest feel she should be sad.
Thank you Mary for your kind words :) I honestly wasn't made to feel sad, not at all, and not by anyonell! I actually liked that we had this particular bit of the conversation because endometriosis does affect one's fertility and motherhood is a big desire for most women. And feeling sad is okay too, if one's desire isn't fulfilled.
Nonetheless, I do understand what you mean esp as women have generally been socialized to think our value is dependent on being wives and mothers. We are valuable simply because we are made in God's image. Period. 🤗
First of all it's my first time to hear of this Endo disease,thankyou for braving yourself through it and giving the positive encouragement to us. No words just a prayer of total healing and restoration Sheila 🙏
Thank you bump love for hosting Sheila and thank you Sheila for sharing your experience. As some one who lives with stage 4 endometriosis as well, I can relate. Chronic pain from an invisible disease is so hard to deal with. Sending hugs to Sheila
Hugs right back at you Livi :)
@@sheilawavamunno9372 thank you for sharing luv .it is well too but iwould like to know whether the disease is inherited or it's not. Thanks
Thank you Bump Love for hosting Sheila. I've had horrible cramps since the beginning. I'll go do further checks.
Please do investigate asap 🙏🏾
This chanel is teaching me daily...
Thanks so very much for this Sheila and bump love at large
I was also diagnosed with endometriosis and i underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy this year in Jan
Praying you heal well and for strength for the journey. God is with you!!
Wow
Shez a champion!
May God heal her completely
Thank you Shiela 😊 you are my OG. I still remember how brilliant you were
Am so thinking no. She is my o.g too
Okitegeera,that lady was intelligent eeeh I remember how she would challenge Mr. Ssemambo(RIP) just incase crossed her number just because she scored 100 in Maths
Thank you so much Bumplove for giving Sheila this platform! You have educated me. I have been seeing a comment about ' no sign of endometrial or endometriosis ' or endo something from my medical reports and I didn't know what it meant. I am glad that I know, I know someone that calls herself an endometriosis survivor and I was like ohhh! As long as she survived thank God. Surely we thank God,that's life threatening. God bless your soul Sheila fro educating us,I pray we all try to check our systems as we grow. I was diagnosed with a syndrome towards 30! Isn't it weird how we tend to take life serious later on! May we educate the younger girls.
May we educate younger girls, Amen🙏🏾 I hope you're well Doreen. Let's always ask about the things we don't understand on our medical reports.
Great discussion about Endometriosis. I was diagnosed with Endometriosis a couple of years ago. Fortunately, I live in a developed world(Canada) and I started educating myself about Women's Health. I was blessed to seek alternative therapy using BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES. Bioidentical Hormones are hormones that come from plants(usually soybeans or wild yams). These Bioidentical Hormones are chemically modified to be identical to human Hormones. Unfortunately, most Doctors are not educated about Women's health. Black women especially are prone to Fibroids and Endometriosis. Ugandan Doctors really need to pay attention to Women's Health. Some women have other diseases such as PCOS(Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), a condition in which the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of androgens(Male sex Hormones). Others have Fibroids and many women suffer silently because of lack of knowledge about Women's reproductive system. Some women have issues with infertility or miscarriages. All these issues can be linked to Fibroids or Endometriosis. Unfortunately these conditions are hereditary. If your mother had Fibroids or Endometriosis, chances are you are at risk for developing the same condition.
Bioidentical hormones...watched a video by a daktari about this recently. Thank you for pointing it out. I should explore this🙏🏾
Thanks bump love. Thank you Sheila for sharing your story. Bitiisa but God has us . Praying for complete healing 🙏
BUT GOD!! Yes, He holds us fast 🤗
Always here to listen.
Am a medic.
But here to learn from the patient
Thank you!!
Thank you! Thank you so much.
Thank you for the awareness,can we talk of UTI and fungal infections next,much love from kenya
Shalom, her faith and knowledge really left me speechless, I had very painful periods for many years to the extend I was given a free day from school every month but am grateful after having my Son I was healed of that pain. It was just funny when I hear people say Labour's are the worst thing they have experienced I waited for the Labour pains to exceed the crumps and it didn't happen so after bath I was walking like normal though I had bee feeling stitched So when people normalise periods I just feel its offensive. Thanks for sharing this ladies, shalom and blessings to Sheila may the God who see us all give you complete hearing and give you a husband and twins. Amina
This prayer...ho!! May God's will be done🙏🏾 Very glad you had your Son and that the pain left after. Good for you!!
Very very educational. Sheila, thanks for opening up and sharing details about this journey. May the good Lord continue to guide and protect you unceasingly 🙏🏿
I am in awe of your strength and resilience. I really admire your faith and belief in the Christian doctrine. May you continue to live in and unveil your true purpose. Like you said kids are a gift from God, also if you feel indifferent about having any, it is very fine. Having kids might not be the end all or be all for everyone. Discover and live your purpose.
Also, if you ever still get a knack for motherhood, know that there are needy kids in society always waiting to be mothered, young girls & boys in need of mentorship, direction and guidance which some biological parents are unable to offer, even just the support group you’ve created are all ways one can do to elevate the community.
I wish you well and your blessings will keep coming. Stay safe🥰
Any strength and resilience I have comes from God alone. I won't lie, I was tired of the pain last year. I wanted out. Only God sustained (and sustains) me by surrounding me with love and support🙏🏾
I didn't form the support group, Grace Nagawa did ( the Endometriosis Foundation Uganda). I was happy to find it :)
Thanks for you Bump Love and thank you sharing your experience with us Sheila. There is someone that i follow on IG that shares lots of info about Endometriosis.
Thanks Sheila for the education.....I pray you get better soonest. Thanks bump love for hosting Shillah
Have Faith, God can do what science totally complicates
Amazing lady and story! I know many have been touched and enlightened
Yes to awareness!!!
Thank you Sheila for sharing.
Am supper happy that you feel better. Just like you are praying I join in that you are completely healed . Rehema
Oh bump love thx for hosting Sheila….Sheila hun u r so much hope I’m so many things …. I am super proud of you🤗
Mukama yekka!!! 🤗
Thank you for the hope and being such a strong and honest woman. I pray that you are healed completely in Jesus’s name
Thank you Sheila for raising this awareness. May God grant you complete healing
Sheila thanks for telling your story, when you say something about our reproduction systems are not talked about, some medics even be rude, I remember one guy at Naguru who lashed at me for fibroids, he accused me of using FP, I had never ever used any it's so frustrating. We need more compassionate medics
I am so sorry about that nasty experience... yes, we certainly need more compassionate doctors!!
Bumzo my dear,Thank you for sharing your story! You are changing the narrative here...Talking about things that our society does not talk about!We are always here for you.Much love
Thank you Joy for being part of my journey. The support and encouragement you give is invaluable 🤗 Thank you for watching too!!
Loved her mostly because of her faith! Was so proud hearing her include her biblical standards in her chat❤️
Without God, nothing makes sense! Very thankful I have a relationship with Him through Yesu :)
thank you Sheila for creating awareness about endometriosis, this is deep
Oh darling......I feel so bad, may you feel better soon. Cyber hugs and love dear Sheila
Thanks for sharing your story my dearest Sheila!! Praying for total healing.
Amiina! You witnessed everything firsthand 🤣 Bad and good days. I am glad you were and are with me all the way :) Webare munonga ❤
Thank you sheila for being vulnerable and sharing your story. It's such an encouragement.
Thank you Sheila for telling your story. One thing I would like to correct is that Endometriosis is taught in Medical school. I'm a Nurse and I did study about Endometriosis. The medical professionals you met earlier might have not been able to understand what was happening to you but for sure, we have been taught about it.
True
Even in the storm… count it all joy🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Amiina nnyo!!
I have fibroids i can relate very well. People will never understand your pain. Excruciating pain no one can understand. You are right the pain is different on everyone and also some people pain torelate is differently. Bless your heart for sharing this. I also went through 3 surgeries
Me l understand it because l have been there, its only surgery that has sorted me.Luckily l managed to get a miracle baby at 37 years.

I hope you feel much better now Gladys :)
Thanks Sheila ...May his will prevail
Thanks Sheila for sharing your journey with us.....more love to you and may you receive total healing....thanks bump love for bringing such a sensitive topic....and you ladies gave her the best platform by listening and asking her right questions
They absolutely did!! Ela Bump Love yebale nnyo 🤗
Thanks Sheila for sharing, mine is being treated with hormonal contraceptive esp IUd and it has helped, less bleeding and less painful 😢 but I was told after 40s things try to normalize again , This is a condition many people never talk about ...Painful periods should always be checked out.
Very glad the IUD is helping, Nagasha :) Yes... I think things do get better when we approach menopause. Naye it's not so straight forward! Endo is still an enigma!!
I am so glad this was shared with me. Thank you Sheila for spreading this awareness. I have struggled with endo for more than a decade. I practically had to fight for myself to be heard by someone- ANYONE! I have had 5surgeries to date though currently been advised to pause given that sometimes these laparoscopies can contribute to spreading the tissue to other areas. My endo is currently all over my body and reached my liver. Being treated with some medication which is more like for temporary menopause. It has slowed down the growth and helped reduce pain but also no periods as I was being hospitalized each month and this completely affects day to day life. It is not easy at all but God continues to see me through it all.
@janemullo I am so sorry you've had to endure those many surgeries and that even your liver got endo! Thankful you're on treatment that's helping you manage this monster! I love your last sentence....BUT GOD!!! Isn't it a gift that despite our pain, we recognize that God still holds us fast?! I am thankful for that🙏🏾 That we can acknowledge God :)
Thank you so much Bumplove for this awareness, I have very painful periods almost every month and I had never thought there's a possibility of it turning out this bad,am now considering having a test aswel, Thank you Sheila for sharing your experience.
Please investigate at least to rule out endo!! The earlier, the better 🙏🏾
@@sheilawavamunno9372 please help me with a contact of a doctor who is invested in Endo. We suspect my mum could have it but we need proper diagnosis. It is very urgent.
Thank you sheila for sharing your story. I have been down the same road you have been .and I was able to conceive after a few yrs post surgery .
But the journey wasn’t easy.
God bless your heart.
Congratulations on your bab(y)ies 🥁💃
You've opened our eyes dear Sheila
Thanks for educating us,this has saved someone out there🥰
May God see you through it all
Ohh Sheila! Thank you so much for educating and encouraging us through your story. It's been eye-opening to me.
Praying for the women that have to go through this. I had no idea this existed
Thank you for watching :) Please share in your circles so others can learn about Endo too 🙏🏾
Thank you for bringing such a person
I am delighted to receive this kind of information, I had no idea about this thanks you soo much ladies.
It is well Sheilah. God is on your side
Always!!
Thank you bump love
The leg pain, pelvic, shoulder, numbness due to excruciating pains, emotionally is so draining, etc this affects ur social life, religious life, physical life, work life etc...
You feel you have stressed family n friends enough and want to withdraw from everyone etc...
A dreadful Jon I walked.
Sheila much love
I hope and pray that you are much better now Harriet :)
Endo!
Such pain banange.you are ok today... tomorrow pain literally sweeps over you 😥😥😥
You know it!! Since surgery though, the pain has greatly reduced. It's now mostly the constant fatigue and back pain.
I was diagnosed last year...looks like I have stage 4 because I have adhesions...the daily pain tho,😥😥
Thank you Sheila as always. You are sunshine !
You're biased, ha ha!! Thank you :)
Thanks for educating me ,I was also diagnosed with the same.
Thank you Sheila
Thanks so much ladies for the awareness.

Early diagnosis is very crucial if we are to beat this monster!!
Thank you for bringing her and for to explain is selfless. I have learnt some good information.

I'm really enjoying this conversation because it's close to home. I read somewhere that 68% of hysterectomies are unnecessary and that the uterus is a crucial organ in a woman's body.
Wow,, such a queen... you won the battle
God only!! And it's a journey banange...

This is good work
Thanks for this episode,so helpful
Thank u for sharing...🫂
I always have painful periods 😭 scared to go to gynaecologist. I will plan to go
Sorry 😞
I think like Shiela mentioned please make sure that you are mentally ready to find out what's wrong... Do not stretch your mind, take a step at a time. It is well
Please go... it helps to know the cause of the pain. Then you can move forward. Surgery IS NOT always the solution if you have endo. If you need to go with someone...do let me know....
Thanks for the awareness.
Thank you bump love,so can u get children when yo a sufferer ? God help all women going through that and protect those who are safe.
Yes...bambi watch bulungi. Endometriosis affects one's fertility for sure. It's probably the leading cause of infertility in most women BUT it depends again on where in the pelvis the disease is.. many women have had children despite endo!! Thankfully 🤗
@@sheilawavamunno9372 thank you,every woman needs to go for check up. Thank u for opening up,at least now we're aware.
