- I'm 44 years old & my endometriosis symptoms began at 13; I was finally diagnosed at 23. In addition to endo, I have multiple other chronic illnesses. My doctors believe many of these are related to my endo. This blog is to reach out to endo patients, other chronically ill patients, & their loved ones. The typical diagnosis occurs 9.9 years after the onset of symptoms! I have heard many women’s stories: of not being believed by their medical professionals; women who have had their symptoms marginalized or dismissed; women who go from doctor to doctor searching for someone who will truly understand, take them seriously, & help them get relief/manage their symptoms. There are many wonderful health care professionals out there who treat endo patients. Unfortunately, finding them can be challenging.

Caique Crazy posted a lovely comment on my blog yesterday and it deserves my full attention. So I apologize for the delay is responding!
Due to technical difficulties and serious illness on my side, it appears Caique Crazy's comments posted back on the original (You Tube part 1); the YouTube article from June (see archives for Part I on this YouTube video topic).
Anyway, Caique Crazy has left a new comment on my post "YouTube Video Clips --- Endo, Infertility, Chronic..." as follows. All I did was paste the comments here into the "Part 2" post so more will see it...

"Hello again :)
The power of the internet is simply astounding, is it not? It was by chance that I happened upon your blog- I had been asked if it was OK to share my video at another website and I granted permission. I was searching for that website the other day and my screename caught my eye, so of course I had to venture in for a look. I have to say- YOU made my day. That video was just a silly little thing I did whilst sitting at home one day feeling a little blue. When I launched it on youtube, I never imagined the impact it could have on so many.
I used to be very involved with horses, which is why the clip portrays horses. When I was making the clip, I simply snipped out some photos, and played a bit with my freebie photo editor to add the 'riders' on the horses. There were so many words that are associated with chronic pain on a day to day basis, it was easy to pick some of the more powerful ones and portray them: anger on a dark horse, sadness on a horse, a fleeting feeling of loneliness, suffering, pain, despair, etc. I knew I needed to end on a positive note with the clip, and I closed my eyes and remembered the days I really did 'run with the wild horses' and knew I needed to end it with that thing we all seek- freedom.
I did take some of the passages of text from 'letters to normals' that are on fibrotalk.com, while others are my own, hence the end credits.
To answer some of the other questions: Yes, I did the video by myself. The song is titled "Wild Horses" and is sung by Natasha Beddingfield, it was featured on the movie 'Flicka' that came out about a year ago.
I will be emailing you shortly.. it would be a great pleasure to write an article for your blog :) Thank you for reaching out to others."
