Lots of pain early pregnancy

I have suffered with endometriosis since I was a teenager (am now 27) but was only recently diagnosed. I am currently 8 weeks pregnant with my third child and am suffering- a lot. I've been having pain in my right hand side which comes and goes in waves but at its worse leaves me unable to walk.

I've had a scan to rule out an ectopic pregnancy and cysts etc. After going to hospital twice I was sent home his morning saying that I was either having a threatened miscarriage or the pain is from my scar tissue from my 2 c-sections and endometriosis.

This afternoon after (sorry for the detail) having a bowel movement I ended up I agonsing pain for an hour and a half which only went away when I caved in and took some codeine (which I'm not really supposed to take). I just didn't know what to do.

I just don't know where to go from here to be honest. The doctors have been lovely but aren't offering solutions and I don't know how I can continue this way when I have 2 toddlers to look after.

Has anyone else experienced this??
