Feel such heaviness in my shoulders don’t know if it’s just anxiety and panic but feel so on edge and unrelaxed, on top of that I have thigh pain at the top of my thighs, left ovary pain and generally feel rubbish. Took Codine 2 hours ago which did nothing, I’m not in agony in just stressed out, panicy and feel horrendous feel like the anxiety is making the rest 100 percent worse.

I stupidly had a coffee on Sunday night and since then my body hates me.

I have second zodelex injection next week and I’m taking HRT everyday :(

Hi, it may not be anxiety, I get really bad thigh pain and hip pain, the shoulder pain and back I get is horrible, I find codine doesn't touch the shoulder pain, but neproxen works a treat for that, hope that helps x

To add, I had a year of no pain and now it's back, never once in that year did I feel anxiety about what my body was doing, I didn't worry or anything, but now the pains back I'm constantly anxious, I feel people are looking at me, I feel like crap all the time and get really anxious about my health and worry what if something's been missed, it's not a nice feeling

I’ve been in pain for 3 days, I don’t know why, it’s stressing me out. I’m not in agony tho I’m just uncomfortable if that makes any sense. My legs ache, I feel fed up, anxious etc

It could be Endo in your back or the painkillers could make stomach, pancreas sore which makes shoulder s ache. Get someone to bang your back to see if it helps. If your taking strong painkiller s it's suggested you take a pro-pump inhibitor to help the stomach. If the pain radiates down the left arm it could be your pancreas. Mention this also as you are on Zoladex to the doctor. The HRT might be giving you leg pain and there are others that might be better. I couldn't take the HRT as I got very stressed and hormonal grumpy. Sorry that we all have difficult choices. My best Joy
