Hey hun, I am not having a good day either. I am tricycling my pill and about 2.5 packets in so around 2 weeks before my break. My lower back is killing, been feeling icky and pains so bad this morning I was sweating and having to breathe through it. I cannot really offer any advice but just wanted to say you are not alone, this is a horrid condition and no one really understands it unless they have it. I consider myself lucky that I am not always like this and lots of other women suffer alot worse than me, but sometimes I just feel like cr@p and think ...why me?! Anyway hope you feel better soon x

It's such a shame it's a constant battle with consultants and docs etc. I am pretty new to this, been suffering for a few years but only diagnosed in October 2014, well as diagnosed as I can be without a lap. It's very hard having something that people cannot see, the internal pain we go through and have to put on a brave face. I don't tell many people, but not been great recently and mentioned it to a colleague. She said 'oh yeah I've heard of endo, it's just another phrase for bad period pain' ohhh if only she knew the complexity of the evil that is endo! I am 31 and do not want children so I would let them take the lot if they would...but instead I am 'managing' it with the pill until it gets too bad to cope. Really fills you with confidence that! Anyway sorry I am ranting! hope things ease off for you soon x

I'd like to send you a huuuuug! I'm actually feeling the same but on my period and in so much agony. 9 weeks after laparoscopy 1st period wasn't so bad but this one is horrid!! I feel a constant pain all the time I think I maybe used to it now as we have to learn to cope right? But it's 50 times worse during my periods. So glad that I'm not the only one, and someone actually understands my pain, but hugs help me :)

feel better soon Hun XxX
