"The day I woke up from hysterectomy surgery, I learned that I had severe endometriosis. It was so severe that it had backed up into my appendix, which was about to burst. So they removed that, too. Dumas' migraine pain had been so intense, it cried louder than her endometriosis pain and overshadowed its symptoms."
"Like Dumas, I had suffered with both conditions for years, but it wasn't until I woke up from what ended up being a complete hysterectomy, required by the severity and spread of my endometriosis, that I screamed out with the worst migraine I had ever experienced. In fact, it was that day when I went from being an episodic migraine patient to a chronic one."
