I have a history of ovarian cysts to start things off- i have had 2 surgeries to remove them along with endometriosis. I have also had the marina iud for about 3 years now.
I have not had a period in about 31/2 years and before that they were not regular. My question now is that my dr had me on a birthcontrol pill that was 30 mg i think but is now putting me on a new one that is 50 mg. I am wondering what the side effects will be. I am not sure i want to go on anything else. I am getting so mad cuz i know that i have another one forming but he doesnt think we should do an ultrasound because the results will be the same- he said that he would put me on the pill eitherway! I dont know if he is just tired of dealing with me or what. He also said that he cant give me any meds (he was controlling the pain with vicodin) anymore that are narcotic! I am allergic to torrital so he said he would give me darvon. Will this work? Should i get a new dr? What is everyones input?

I would definitely recommend getting another opinion on this situation and preferably from someone that does not share the same office of this doctor to see what they say. Also, I would recommend talking to your primary care physician to see if they can help. Also, ask for a referral to a Pain Management doctor that has experience with treating the chronic pain of gynecologic conditions such as endometriosis (these doctors tend to be more comfortable with giving medications like Vicodin than other doctors).
If you have other questions or need to talk please feel free to e-mail or IM me off site any time.
