Almost forgot...

...shows sometimes the government do listen :

You signed a petition asking the Prime Minister to "reclassify the DWP description so that endometriosis is no longer described under the heading of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease."

The Prime Minister's Office has responded to that petition and you can view it here: http://www.number10.gov.uk/Page18238

Prime Minister's Office Petition information - http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/Endo-definition/

If you would like to opt out of receiving further mail on this or any otherpetitions you signed, please email optout@petitions.pm.gov.uk

For anyone who doesn't know, endometriosis was classified under PID and in the entry it stated the main cause of PID is due to sexually transmitted infections. Endo IS NOT an STI. The ball ache is it's not know what causes it, there are a lot of theories ranging from an immune system deficiency to the possibility it's heriditary.
