When you go to the doctors with the worst flare in a long time and he turns round and tells you ‘don’t know why you came here, there’s no cure for endo, you just have to get on with it’. Thanks mate
Any other advice, I’ve tried the usual hot bath, tramadol, cocodomol, hot water bottle, nefipam 😩

Oh my god that’s a really shocking comment from a healthcare professional; change GP immediately! And I’d tempted also put a complaint in against him. I’m so angry on your behalf.
Under you under the care of a gynae or endo specialist? If you aren’t get referred to one. If you are then contact them and tell them your pain & symptoms.
Just because it isn’t curable doesn’t mean you have to suffer these symptoms &pain. They should be managing your symptoms & pain.
I also had difficulties with the medical profession; my endo specialist was happy to make me suffer unbelievable symptoms for eight months which really shocked my GP and fertility specialist. Luckily my fertility doctor stepped and thanks to him I have been referred me to colorectal specialist for my symptoms. I don’t know what the matter with these people is. 😡
You definitely don’t have to put up with the pain and symptoms.
