Am endo diagnosed (stage 3) and have been on decapeptyl injection for 6 months. Some pain has subsided but still having severe left sided pain, around my ovary. Dr isn't convinced this is endo pain, so have seen a gastroenterologist to ensure its not IBS related which is negative. Awaiting my MRI results. Has anyone had a similar issue?

I don't have a BSGE centre near me, but am moving to Exeter in September so I'm trying to get a GP referral to them. Do you think they might be able to shed some light?

Hi, Charlotte.

Yes, try to get referral done now to Exeter. As it might take a while if you waited to move to this was down to get referral.

They are newly emerged specialist centre. I live near Exeter so I would be interested to see how you get on with Exeter.

Yes, I have left side pain from the shoulder down to just above my knee. It is all to do with Endometeriosis. I think I have stage 4. Good luck! x
