Not able to eat solid food.
Hi, I feel for you hun, I'm on a liquid diet too, when my pains are bad I can't eat anything solid, otherwise I'm able to eat a little toast in the morning but then throughout the day it's homemade soup. I have lost lots of weight but the GPs can't give me any supplement drinks as I'm not underweight yet. I had Endo inside my bowels 4 years ago and had a bowel resection done, then I had keyhole surgery as more Endo was found on my womb, then I had hysterectomy done. I had a cycscocopy tes done last week and found I have Endo inside my badder, and my left overies, and my bowels are stuck together, going for a wee is painful. I'm waiting to see my consultant to tell me when he will operate on me. I suffer from ibs too, sex for me is too painful. My hubby is supportive and try to help me but at the same time feels helpless. No painkillers are helping me doesn't matter if I overdose on them at times, I use the TENs machine which helps a little. I do notice when I eat solid foods I'm in a lot pain, I have cut out wheat, dairy, soya, red meat, milk, which is helping with the bloating feeling. I feel weak, dizzy, tired all the time, I have trouble sleeping during the night as the pains wake me up.
Hi sweetyassi
sorry you going through all this as well , can understand the pain as well.have found that since coming of zoldex and hrt my symptoms have got alot worse. They say it ibs but I don't think so, as if anything clothes wise touches right side by hip start swelling up do you get this? As the pain can be 10/10.i have a gyni appolntment next week and want to make sure sort this out as been going on for 2 years they took appendix out but was still in severe pain.what symptoms do you get with endo inside bowels? They have only ever removed it on the outside.we sound very similar thank god have patient husband because we have never had a normal sex life as in pain every day, alot of the time he has to look after our 3 children which I feel very guilty for as 15 years ago I was a different person.i understand your pain hope they can help you get better to stop the excruciating pain.
