Does anyone else get this? Getting kinda weird

Hey guys. So I have endo, waiting on my laparoscopy and all that. Mines really related to my bowel. So if I need to poop - my stomach bloats MAJORLY and I can't move or sit comfortably. I always have a full ache or pain but it just makes it 10x worse. Can't poop without like labour pains lol.

Recently it's getting worse. The bloat will set in and my skin will feel like it's about to burst it's so tight. I get very bad pain in terms of I can't touch or move my belly. But if I were to suck it in per say the pain is HORRID. A few times I've had splitting pains on the left side of my abdomen, I get shooting pains up through my chest and even around my back.

That's new - I never used to get that.

Wtf is it ? Anyone else get it ?

Are you managing to 💩at all? I don't know but sound like you've got done some kind of obstruction going on. How long have you been like this. Have you seen a gp 💗🤗😘

I get the exact same, my belly goes massive and hard and I can't breathe it in! It's awful and makes me very insecure. Im quite skinny which makes it more noticeable too, makes me look heavily pregnant which seems cruel and ironic given the nature of this disease!

I'm in same position as you though, waiting for laparoscopy. I'll be surprised if I don't have either an adhesion or something on my Bowel xx

I have the exact same symptoms. Had my laparoscopy 2 weeks ago and found stage 4 endo on my bowel. I also have it on my diaphragm, which you could have as that would explain the shooting pains up to your chest.

Good luck with your laparoscopy. You will feel better once you have answers! X

I had the same symptoms. After an MRI they realised I had a nodule blocking the top of my rectum and also my colon is twisted and wrapped around my left tube, ovaries and massive cyst. I also have endo on my colon. so defo probable with you. Push for an MRI as well as lap. X
