I have endo in my bowel ovaries and pouch of Douglas and am waiting for the date for my 4 th op in 4 years to remove the endo again. I've had the menopause injection, coil, pill etc nothing helping with pain I take 6-8 co codomol a day for the pain but since last week it's gotten worse. Pulling/dragging pain ok my left ovary I've been to the gp who prescribed sevredol for the flare up but said if no better to by pass gp and out of hours and go to a and e. It's still as bad today (app was Friday) should I go to hospital? Or let it pass
