On the left side most women experience catamenial hemoptysis.

I'm very stressed. I know an 11 year old girl who quote: "I'm feeling severe pain in my upper left chest (My Left). It happened about a year ago or so. It just hurt for about 30 seconds. It was especially happening when I was having NO ACTIVITY at all! I moved barely and I would feel a knife or a needle stabbing pain. For about 8 Months this occurred. For about 2 months it just never happened. Then recently it started hurting, and hurting, and hurting, more and more. Until today, she had one that lasted several minutes, and much more painful. She rated it on a 8 out of 10 in pain. She took her avg. dose of her Tylenol when she would get sick usually, and calmed down. 3 Minutes later after it had appeared to be over, it lasted longer, on and off for 10 minutes. She bawled, and cried on her mom's shoulder. We hope she feels better. This child has had little personal stress, and as she is maturing, this could cause mental and physical stress in appearance and moving into middle school. (Junior High)
Please, help us. We need to know if this has a high possibility of Endomentriois.

Would you say it is always limited to the right lung?

Dr. Wallace, I am grateful to have found your site and your book, which I am ordering. I've had endometriosis in the pelvis for all of my adulthood. Surgeries have helped. But I (and doctors) believe I have it in the lung now, too. For years I've had partial collapses in the lower lobe of the right lung, plus numerous infections. I also have severe asthma, and sometimes symptoms are confounded by this, and most doctors believe my problem is only asthma. But with what I know about lung endo so far, this really sounds like it. It has interfered with my life enormously, and I (plus 2 doctors) are considering surgery soon. Thank you so much for helping bring this issue to light.

Dr. Wallace, I just found out about your book and have ordered my copy from Amazon. I've had 8 pneumothoraces, all on the right side. I've also just been diagnosed with moderate endometriosis from an ultrasound. Catamenial pneumothoraces are so poorly understood, that I'm happy you're bringing some attention to this. The thought of endometrial tissue migrating elsewhere like the heart and brain is really frightening.

Select the organ endometriosis has been documented in and click on the cells beside the organ. It will take you to an article from the National Institutes of Health (Pub Med) written by the physician who found the endometriosis. The blog has been narrated at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9pOi2I-9rM&mode=related&search=.
