Am I going crazy?

Since my car accident in 2007 I have had severe pelvic pain. This pain comes and goes and in these last few months has become much more frequent and severe. Finally I went to an ob/gyn to try and figure out what is going on. From all the tests the doctor ran nothing is blatantly wrong with me. After having an ultrasound on Tuesday the doctor decided to do a laparoscopy surgery on me this Friday. Such short notice but at least it will be done before school starts on Monday and hopefully he will be able to figure out what has been going on. I am praying that he does find the source of pain so I know I am not going crazy.

My mother was diagnosed with endometriosis in her twenties. The pain that I have been having with not obvious source along with the genetic factors has led me to suspect I may have endometriosis as well. If that is indeed what the doctor finds, appointments will follow to talk about fertility. The last thing I want to have to consider right now is the possibility of not being able to have children but I know that if I do learn this on Friday, Eric and I will figure it out. We will be ok because I know God has a plan for us and in the worst case we will just adopt.
