Patient Name: Krishna Johnson. Age: 32...
Patient Name: Krishna Johnson. Age: 32. Background: A high school biology teacher and avid rock climber from Denver, Colorado. Symptoms/History: For over a decade, Krishna experienced increasingly debilitating pelvic pain that radiated down her legs, severe bloating ('endo belly'), and fatigue so profound it forced her to cancel climbing trips. Pain during intercourse had strained her relationship. She saw multiple doctors who dismissed her pain as 'bad periods' or stress. Doctor Recommendation: After a new OB/GYN, Dr. Evans, listened to her full history and performed a detailed ultrasound showing potential endometriotic cysts, she recommended a diagnostic laparoscopy with excision surgery. She explained that while endometriosis is not classically autoimmune, it involves immune dysfunction and inflammatory processes that can be addressed. Treatment Experience: The laparoscopic surgery confirmed Stage III endometriosis with lesions on her uterosacral ligaments and bowel. Dr. Evans used excision to carefully remove all visible endometriosis. Post-Procedure Recovery Outcome: The first two weeks were tender, but by week six, Krishna noticed a dramatic shift. The constant background ache was gone. Her energy began returning. At her three-month follow-up, she reported a 90% reduction in pain and had successfully returned to moderate climbing. Emotional Journey: Before, Krishna felt betrayed by her body and dismissed by the medical system, leading to frustration and isolation. After, while mindful of potential recurrence, she felt validated and hopeful. Regaining her physical passion for climbing restored a core part of her identity, bringing immense relief and joy.
