After nearly 10 years of symptoms and 6 different doctors, Emily finally had surgery in January 2016. Instead of being treated for endometriosis, she was diagnosed with adenomyosis. Since then, Emily has made it her mission to inform everyone she can about endometriosis and the proper forms of treatment so that other women won’t go through the years of pain and struggle she did. 

The Minnesota Endo Warriors are very thankful to Emily for her contributions as both a past Secretary and Community Liason in the organization.
