I just asked Dr Lynn at Prime's Trinity health care center. Endometriosis does not disqualify you in itself. the drugs you take forpain could. Any narcotic woukd, buy if you use Naproxen or some.other type of pain reliever not on the controlled substance list you will be fine.
Thank you so much for getting back. I don’t take any meds. I don’t even like medicine tbch. Pills are my absoluteeeeeeee lassstttt resoect for pain. I’ll ball up and cry or go to sleep or tough it out if I’m ever in severe pain.
Thanks again though. Awesome !
