Hi Lynn,

I know we talked on the telephone, but I thought I would go ahead and share the suggestions I gave you with everyone one the forum.

I don't have a lot of research specifically on endometriosis. However, I have found where Blue Cohosh has been used for this problem, along with many other related health issues. Blue Cohosh contains magnesium, which helps to relax uterine muscle and relieve the pain and cramping associated with various menstrual conditions and even childbirth.

I would also suggest trying extra magnesium itself. According to Dr. Cutler's book Amalgam Illness, mercury interferes with the body's ability to utilize magnesium. Therefore, people experience a lot of problems related to magnesium deficiency, such as cramps, muscle twitches, muscle pain, back aches, headaches, even heart problems. I personally use Magnesium Complex because it contains two forms of highly absorbable magnesium. I've even opened the capsules and put the contents under my tongue to absorb it faster. I've definitely noticed a difference when I take extra magnesium...I sleep better, I don't wake up stiff or sore, I can work on the computer all day without getting stiff or sore shoulder and neck muscles, etc.
