Help me make it easier?

I hope no one is in much pain today! I was diagnosed a week ago. I had an laporoscopy in hospital before they figured I had endo. I'm 17 years old and wanted to know if anyone has found the best way to handle the pain. Thanks, Kelly :)

I had a laporoscopy about 2 months ago and was 17 at the time so I understand what situation you are in. I personally feel like the pill helps control the pain alongside painkillers which are used when pain re-appears (I use Tramadol). I have been put on multiple different pills to find the right one for me but pain control can be different for each person. I hope this helps :)

Hi, Kelly! I'm sorry that you are suffering! The only thing that I found that worked for me is "endovan" (google it). I started a post on this forum that I've updated every two weeks or so describing how it has improved my symptoms. My pain is reduced to nothing while not on my period and is now only manageable cramps while on my period that OTC drugs can handle. Search "review of endovan" on this forum to read along. I hope you find something to help you manage your pain!

Hi, sounds good, have googled a bit so will read more on a minute. Is it costing about £40 per month? X

I'm in the US and I also bought three bottles to save $20. It's three bottles for $130 which is supposed to last three months. I started out taking three per day though since I have relatively high metabolism and they say two per day or three with high metabolism. So really it's cost me about $65 per month. I've backed down to two per day to try to reduce the cost, but I'll gladly go back up to three if my symptoms come back!

They say on their web-site that there's a money-back guarantee if you don't get results in two months. It worked for me so I haven't confirmed how easy that process is, but it did give me enough courage to go with the three bottles the first time.

Oh that's good then, worry free. I suppose it's costing just over $15.00 a week which isn't a huge amount for something that helps. I might give it a try :) can't believe I haven't heard of it before now, so thank you!

No problem! If you do wind up trying it, please come back and post on the "Review of Endovan" string so that I'm not the only one on the forum talking about it. :) I hope it works for you!

Hi, I just wanted to follow up with you to see if you wound up trying endovan and if it was helping you. I hope it does!

I am 22 now but was 17 when I was diagnosed. I have been put on a lot of medication since then to try and help me but much of it turned out to be uneffictive, unfortunately for me the only thing that helps me when it's really bad is solpadol but different medications may work differently for you! Until you find something that works I cannot stress enough how much a nice hot bath, hot water bottle and lots of rest will help you! Lots of luck! xx
