Holidays

Hi girls, I have just been on a 10 day holiday to Spain and rarely got any pain whilst I were there. I’ve been home for 3 days now and been in pain since I got back. Does anyone else find that being abroad eases their symptoms? It sounds so weird I don’t know whether it’s the heat or flying god knows but I feel like moving abroad just so I know I’m not in agony every day 😂

Omg I had this when I went tenerife in February haha. I normally get pain a week before my period which was due around the time I was leaving.

I wasn’t in pain the whole week but got my period on the flight home which was the worse 5 hours of my life haha.

I think just the feeling of being relaxed in the sun and drinking cocktails helped me a little 😂 xx

I’ve had this same experience on holidays. I wonder if it might be the warmth & relaxation which helps. Xxx

Yes I went to Lisbon 4 weeks ago and it was really warm and my pain eased, I did have a couple of horrible days towards the end but weirdly enough,. It was the days were it was slightly cooler!

I honestly do think the cold weather makes endo flare ups. It’s madness isn’t it how things can effect us x

I think its the lack of stress. For me personally i know that any kind of stress makes mine worse.

Stress is a MASSIVE trigger for me and unfortunately I suffer with anxiety so it’s a nasty combo. I have a rectal nodule and when I’m anxious- goodness me does it bloody hurt. I’ve had a stressful week and it was giving me hell one night. Not easy to switch off though unfortunately.. my mind is my worst enemy xx
