Left to suffer

I was diagnosed with Endometriosis via Laparascopy in 2011 where they lasered it off. Since then I have not seen a gynaecologist and despite constant pain they refuse to refer me back as they do not believe this is gynaecological. I also suffer from Crohns Disease and know the pains can be similar, however my Gastroenterologist says the pain is unlikely my Crohns at the minute. Should I still be seeing a specialist? I feel like I don't get taken seriously for my Endometriosis.

Re: Left to suffer

If you are still having pain which is not thought to be due to Crohn's then certainly ask to be referred back. You may need a further laparoscopy, or imaging such as an MRI scan may be helpful.
