Connected Communities in Central Queensland

Welcome to the Central Queensland QENDO Community!

  • Meet your local coordinator - Prue

    Hi my name is Prue and I’m a pharmacist, farmers wife, new mum and gardening enthusiast!! 

    I was first diagnosed with endometriosis over a decade ago now at the young age of 18. Navigating its challenges, I had new symptoms arise over time which my gynaecologist at the time disregarded. With a change in specialist and more investigation I was diagnosed also with adenomyosis. Not long after, I started trying for a baby which then saw me enter a 4 year infertility battle. Thankfully I conquered that battle and manage my endo/adeno symptoms well. My favourite endo/adeno toolbox recommendation is a TENS machine !!

Join Central Queensland QENDOMeet Facilitator, Prue, for brunch at The Goat Cafe and Restaurant. QENDOMeets are face-to-face support groups for anyone affected by endometriosis, adenomyosis, PCOS or infertility.

They’re a safe space to connect with others living with chronic pelvic pain; to learn about treatments and management strategies that have worked for others; to share stories and experiences, and to find emotional support in an empathetic setting, surrounded by people who truly understand what living with chronic pelvic pain and/or infertility is like.
