This was a punch to the gut book. Literary. I got my Endometriosis diagnosis when I was... 19 or 20 years old. I've lived with this chronic disease since I got my first period when I was 12 years old.

After 30-35 pages I could tick off all the boxes for my symptoms.

Reading this was mostly a confrimation. I know I have it. I know what it feels like. (Fucking painful.) And I know what I can do to have as painfree a life as possible. So even though those parts of the book was very interesting, it was things I already knew. For those who doesn't know what works for them or are in the process of getting a diagnosis, those parts of teh book would probably be the best part.

The best parts for me though was the stories from other endometriosis sufferers. Becasue it's just nice to know you are not alone. And it was also very interesting to read about the research being done. This IS a woman's disease that is connected to your menstrual period. Ergo, not much research was being done. Until now. And THAT was VERY interesting! And giving hope to. Since Endometriorsis is genetic, and I have a daughter... I know she is in HIGH risk of getting it to. But now I KNOW the signs. I KNOW what to ask of a doctor. And... There's research being done. Her future looks much brighter, to be honest. Maybe research has gotten so far then that she won't have to go through IVF to be a mother herself...

Anyhow, this book is GOOD! It's well written, well researched, and so so so important! I hope it will be translated. There's more of us suffering from this then you might think...

Äntligen en fantastisk bok om min sjukdom! Kommer att köpa på mig många ex för att ge till mina nära och kära. Hulda tillsammans med läkarna förklarar väldigt pedagogiskt och ärligt hur det är för både drabbade och närstående.
Alla har garanterat någon i sin närhet som drabbats så läs gärna den här så kan ni stötta dem mer.
