Hi,

Yes, I have found that if I have a busy day at home and I'm tired and I keep pushing myself doing housework, cooking, ironing my pains are a lot worse.

I spent 3 hours in the kitchen today, took my daughter to the library, cleaned the bathroom and kitchen and now I've just sat down and I'm in a lot of pain.

Thanks for your reply, it's really annoying isn't it, where are your pains, mine are in my pelvic area, seems to be getting worse, I'm waiting for date for my first laposcopy, can't wait to no for sure, x

Mine is in the pelvic, bladder, right side of my bowels, stomach, lower back.

It's very annoying. I had an op done last year November and I was painfree in December for the first time in 6 years. come January my pains are slowly coming back. Not fair.

What did they do in the op, and are you taking anything for it

My insides were a big mess, this was my 4th operation. I had to go private to get it sorted out. As the NHS hospital wouldn't believe me.

They removed big Endo which was sitting on top of my bladder and was very deep inside my bladder. Removed Endo and adhesions on my right ovary, unstuck my bowels which were stuck to everything.

I'm not taking anything for my pains as nothing worked for me in the past. The pains also get worse if I can't open my bowels.

Wow, you poor thing, have you tried other things, like hrt pill or coil, I'm not sure whether to have coil after laposcopy, my gyne didn't mention this, but because I have a tilted uterus it was very painfull when I had it fitted years ago for contraception, xx
