Does anyone else notice an increase of symptoms and pain during the evening rather than the day? Or is it just me?

The pain is always worse at night. My partner says it is because in the day I'm busy doing stuff and at night just lying around. He could be right.

I think there is something in what he says! I wake up in the middle of the night in terrible pain but once I get moving in the day it eases. For example, last night I woke up at 3am and didn't get back to sleep until 6ish... Now the pain has eased up (although the lack of sleep makes it very hard to function! ).

My pain always increases as the day goes on, I feel like 2 different people, morning coping, by afternoon not so well, and the busier I am the more pain I get later on, by late evening/ night mine settles back down abit, but I think that's coz I have no option but to rest from about 4 onwards, I even try to get dinner mostly done in morning then havnt got to bother so much later, it's really disrupting my life now, and driving me round the bend, good luck to you, have you had op or meds, im waiting for lap,

I had my gyne appointment on 13th jan, so not been waiting long, YET.

didn't your op help your pain, and didn't they take any endo away, where is your endo?

Ah right not too long then. My surgeon who carried out the experiment could not identify whether it was endo or not so just disregarded it. That's why waiting for second opinion x

What a shame, was he a endo specialist, makes me angry some of the things I've read on here, good luck with you next op. X

I know was very disappointing as put a lot of trust in him. No unfortunately not, stand in for my old consultant who retired earlier that year. Thankyou x
