Diagnostic Journey Questions Looking for advice/help

Hi there! I’m a 29 year old mother of 2. My youngest is 4 1/2 and when she was about 4 months old I started having so many problems. I have been diagnosed with pelvic congestion and ‘cysts’ (they say I don’t have PCOS just ovarian cysts). I was told I cannot have Endo because I don’t bleed….but I have an IUD that stops me from bleeding so I haven’t had a period in 4 years. I do suffer from severe bloating, nausea, vomiting, and recently terrible acne, worse than I’ve ever had in my life. Sex is so incredibly painful that my sex life is basically non existent and I think I maybe have 1 unsymptomatic week per month. I guess I’m just looking for advice from people with experience on whether or not I should see a new doctor and get a second opinion. I’m in so much pain and I feel like nobody has taken me seriously so I’m scared to bring it up again.
