Does anyone get pain in their back or side when their stomach is pressed I've been to doc and she didn't seem bothered about it as I've not got any bowel issues it is on the left side x

Not when it is pressed, but when i am walking, standing still for a long time and carry a bag on 1 shoulder. This seem really to irritate my back and right side of my tummy. I went back many times to gp to discuss this and he told me i needed to stretch before i do anything (housework) and i had another gp saying you have endo so you need to life with it. Not helpfull at all. :(

Oh gosh sounds just like my gp it's very bad that these symptoms are just dismissed by so many gps x

I think because most gp's dont know what endo is and they dont have enough information and knowlegde. Everyone can use google these days, but it doesnt mean that some gp's know what they are talking about or what different symptoms there are that wont fit this desease so they misdiagnose and guess for something else entirely. Maybe write your symptoms down and go back again with the whole list and what time of the month?
