Hi there, can you please explain what the pain meds are that you're using? I haven't been diagnosed yet but I am often in pain. I used to think it was IBS now I think it's endo and am waiting to see a GYN. It would be nice to know what other pain relief there is?

Hi, at the minute I am on mefanamic acid (ponstan) co-codamol 30/500 and just been given 50mg of tramadol twice a day as pain has been so bad this past 3 weeks.

Hi, I bought a TENs machine for my daughter to use (14 yrs old) to help with her suspected endo pain (waiting to see the consultant). She gets relief and places pads either on her back or abdomen depending upon where it is worse. Can give her give her a bit of headache/nauseous but it is a relief from her pain. She is taking paracetamol, neurofen and codine.
