Sexual Health - Women Forum

I've been doing some looking around the forum, and I thought I'd sign up and get some feedback on my situation.

For the last 4 months or so, I've been experiencing "period cramping" all throughout the month, every day. Around the middle of January, I started getting a white/yellow discharge, so I went to my primary who was also my GYN at the time. Before I even get examined, and simply because I was in the room with my boyfriend, she tells me I have chlamydia or gonorrhea. So she gives me the only medicine that is available, apparently, which just HAPPENED to cost me over $100 covered by insurance. Only to find out, my tests come back negative after taking this horrible medicine has made me so incredibly ill that I can't get out of bed without going unconscious. I had to take 2 weeks off of work just for this medicine.
So I'm back and forth to my primary, she's referring me to some specialist who can't get me in until AUGUST. As though I'm supposed to deal with this doubling over pain and nasty discharge until then. So I said "F with you, I'm changing doctors."
I went home, and opened the phone book, and called the first GYN I found, which just happened to be in my own home town. I tell her my symptoms, she runs some tests. This time, she tells me that it could be a PID, and if I spike a fever, to go directly to emergency. I woke up the next day with a 103 fever, so off to the ER I went.
My boyfriend at the time gets me in, pays my copay, and sits with me for 6 hours while we wait to get in. They take my vitals, and my pulse was 160, O2 was 70%. So they admit me for testing. The nurse stick me with an IV, misses the vein, doesn't flush it, and just tapes it there. I'm a nurse myself, so I know when my IV isn't in right. They refused to take it out, and then because I was complaining about it, they didn't give me fluids or any type of pain killers. When they discharge me, I get up, and pass out. Twice this happened before the idiots decided it was a good idea to fix my IV which was making my hand numb, and give me some fluids.

Some time goes by with nothing. Still in pain, my periods are messed up. I had a CT scan, revealing a 2.6cm cyst on my left ovary. So this was the diagnosis. The doctor tells me it should just go away on its own. I was expecting it would. Weeks pass, and I'm still hurting. The doctor sends me in for an ultra sound to see if the cyst is growing or if it's gone, and we see the cyst is gone. The ultrasound is normal. At this point, no one knows what is wrong. I'm starting to think this is all in my head, that I'm a hypochondriac. I go back to the GYN once again to be examined, and she tells me I have a PID, but she has a feeling that's not all that is wrong. She prescribes me some cheap GENERIC antibiotics, and sends me in for some testing. Test comes back clean, and then she tells me my cervix is infected. She gives me Seasonale, so now I'm only getting a period every 3 months, which helps. It's worse at my period.

Some more time passes, and the pain is getting so bad, I don't know what to do with myself. The last time I saw her was just last week, and we scheduled a laparoscopy to see if it is endometriosis. So that'll be coming up in June. Just a month away. But I'm in SO much pain the last few days, that I'm just constantly doubled over in pain, and just wanting so badly to throw up. And now, I just started getting this brown gooey discharge. I have NO clue what its from and I'm beginning to worry. I just can't wait for my surgery. If anyone else has been through the procedure, I'd like some feedback, or of course if anyone else has had endometriosis. Or in the same situation with stupid doctors and bad treatment?

To add a few more things here,to fit it more into the topic (I never realized there was a forum for endometriosis on this site) I have no sex drive, and it's very painful. It's rather annoying, when the guy I'm "seeing" is constantly trying and I'm putting him down. He just doesn't understand my situation, if he really cares at all about my health rather than whats in my pants...
