She can be contacted at www.endometriosis.co.uk, www.nutrition.us.com or www.makingbabies.com for consultations. In a link with the USA, she works with Total Wellness Inc. based in San Francisco.

She has published several papers, abstracts and book chapters, and has given lectures to scientific societies in Europe, the USA, Asia, Australia and South America.

A past trustee of the British Endometriosis Society, she is now a founder member of the SHE Trust (Simply Holistic Endometriosis), a charity that supports women with endometriosis who wish to use both orthodox and complementary therapies on their road to wellness. Dian has researched the relationship between endometriosis and diet, and works closely with doctors and consultants in the UK, USA and Europe.

In addition to Dians professional understanding of endometriosis, she has personal experience of the condition. During 19811982, she was bedridden for six months due to severe abdominal and leg pains that left her unable to walk. Endometriosis was written in her notes, but the gynaecologist did not believe that it could cause such pain and she was never told. She saw eight different specialists at this time and was even, for two weeks on a geriatric ward, placed on traction with a nine-pound weight hung from her left leg, and then fitted in a full-body plaster cast!

In the end, she was helped by herbs and homeopathy, and returned to fulltime teaching. In 1987 she was extremely ill again with ruptured ovarian cysts and excrutiating pain. The drug treatments given for pseudomenopause and pseudopregnancy made her even more ill. Laser surgery removed one cyst, but it returned within two weeks. The only treatment offered was a total hysterectomy with ovaries removed. Not wishing to have major surgery, Dian opted to look into complementary treatments. Her motto and philosophy has always been: Lets try the least harsh method first and work up. The optimum nutrition route was a major part of her healing process. She consulted a clinical ecologist and closely followed his advice. By 1989, she began to be symptom-free and has remained so ever since. Having lectured in home economics and nutrition for 18 years, Dian has since retrained, for a further six years, in nutritional medicine, and has worked with thousands of women suffering from endometriosis and fertility problems worldwide.

Nutrition is not magical; it is logical. While following a healthy eating plan, women with endometriosis have seen a regression of their symptoms, and regained their energy and vitality. Improving quality of life is a key factor in regaining your health. There is no failure except in ceasing to try, as teachers say. Dian will go on researching to find the cause of endometriosis. Her quest is to eradicate period pain from the face of the planet. Dian now also works with Foresight the Charity for Preconceptual Care helping couples who have suffered miscarriage and fertility problems to conceive at The Endometriosis and Fertility Clinic, ION, London (tel: 020 8877 9993) and The Hale Clinic, London (tel: 020 7637 3377).

I would like to emphasize maternity as the frontier of human welfare and that the defence of mothers is the defence of nations. There is no place in the public health field that offers greater opportunity for service to mankind and the welfare of the human race than the application of newer and ever increasing knowledge of nutrition at the human frontier.

Ina May Hobbler, 1952

This human body, at peace with itself, is more precious than the rarest gem. Cherish your body, it is yours for this one time only. The human form is won with difficulty; it is easy to lose. All worldly things are brief, like lightning in the sky. This life you must know was the tiny splash of a raindrop. A thing of beauty that passes away even as it comes into being. Therefore set your goal, and make every day and night a time to obtain it.

14th century Tibetan scholar and yogi

Women with endometriosis commonly complain that doctors do not take their symptoms seriously. There is a feeling that if doctors did listen and if only doctors knew more about endometriosis, women would not have to suffer years of pain without a definitive diagnosis. The frustration is justified as recent research has shown that it usually takes about ten years from the onset of symptoms for the diagnosis to be made.

I think that this apparent indifference to symptoms, such as painful periods and painful sex, merely reflects the lack of interest shown by society in general to health problems that are specific to women. I also think that sufferers themselves should be trying to raise awareness about endometriosis among both the medical profession and the general public. Endometriosis should be as well known as asthma or diabetes given how many women it affects and how much misery it creates.
