I am 42 and have just out of the blue started to get awful pain in my groin and tummy area I went to a and e and they kept me in for 4 days controlling the pain (let me out Xmas eve) it is suspected endo . The pain is constant even through the pain killers and like you I can't go shopping , plan any nights out holidays etc X I have three kids I am struggling to do everybdaybhings with them . I am seeing a gynaelcology next week who has said possible lasporoscopy needed.

Does this sound like there pain you have ? I could doc out my ovaries , how is your pain now ? And is your pain constantly their 24/7?

Thanks

Thanks so much for your really helpful reply Lindle. I have just re read my post and I did it from my phone and it doesn't make much sense or give much history

Basically, When ever since I started my periods (I am now 42) I had chronic period pains, used to take 4 nurofen or feminax at a time which didn't help, rolled around in the toilets at work , took time off etc etc. This was miraculously cured when I had my first child aged 31 which I understand is classic end symptons?

Fast forward 11 years, 3 kids later(I am blessed I know) (and a c-section 3 yea, rs ago), I had a hysterscopy 8 weeks ago, I bled a lot from that and had pain for longer than what is normal, however the pain did become mild after a couple of weeks. However, 3 weeks ago, the tugging sensation in my groin and tummy area became gradually worse and worse to the point where I can't go to the shops and eventually ended up in A and E. I had two lots of antibiotics UTI and now water sample is showing up as clear so they have ruled that out.

They kept me in hospital to control the pain for 4 days up until xmas eve, on xmas day I got my period, the pain is less now although I am still limited in what i can do and am creeping around

the pain is tight in my groin whenever I try and do too much and is constantly there.

You suggested adhesions which sounds about right to me, the hospital said it was suspected endo and suggested a laparoscopy, which I am worried about as I have read the recovery is 5 weeks,

I am struggling to look after my 3 young children and am dreading my husband going back to work next week and back to the school run and clubs etc.

We are meant to be in Cenrte Parcs at the moment, but had to cancel it because of my pain. They have ruled out ectopic pregnancy.

Does this sound like end to you? - It just seems strange to me how it came on three weeks ago following an op?

I have read that it can be re triggered by surgery but more likely a c section or something major?

So my question is :

I just wondered if anyone else had constant groin pain that worsenes before their period.

Im so upset that I now cant go to the shops, take my kids to football, netball, etc,

I am due to see what I think is a good conulstnant Monday (Dr El Farra) but am now wondering whether to see one of the end centre you suggested?

Sorry for such long message, I just wondered if anyone can relate to this constant pain and if so how do they cope with work and kids etc?

thanks so much
