Not Again :(

Hello,

I've suffered from endo since I was 18, I'm now 32. I've had 5 laparoscopies, the last being February last year after I had a cyst burst at the start of December 2015. During that one, they found the endo had spread to my urethra and they put a Mirena in. It took quite a while to recover from that surgery.

But the endo is back and worse than ever before. Really, I knew it was back around March time, but I buried my head in the sand about it. Insane sugar cravings, bleeding as normal even with the Mirena, foul moods, low moods, pain. I don't think the Mirena caused the moods.

The last week wasn't great, but since yesterday I've been in bed, simply unable to move with pain. Naproxen, ibuprofen, paracetamol, 30/500 cocodamol (not all at the same time)...nothing is even touching the sides of this pain. It's excruciating. I feel sick with it. I can't believe it's happening again. Well, I can, since it's always come back, but there was always a slight glimmer this would be the surgery that worked.

I guess it's back through the system again :(
