Constipation worse then endo!

I’ve akways had issues with it since I was a kid I had fetal impactation at school. I’m 27 now and I thought this was endo pain turns out it’s horrendous constipation. I’ve taken laxido but no joy as yet. I felt awful and felt like I was going to be sick today and the pain in the back and on the nerves on my legs makes you think it’s endo when actually it’s constipation. Scary how much constipation can hurt and cause issues!

100 percent!

I thought it was endo pain but turns out it’s constipation from eating rubbish!!!

Honestly feel horrendous! I felt like I was going to be sick last night I don’t know how I didn’t lol. I’ve taken two laxido’s and nothing yet but things are moving as there’s less pain today and I don’t feel as horrific.

Scary how much it can effect you they did say during my lap my constipation looked bad and they will press on nerves and cause leg pains along with having the endo. Easy to forget to look after yourself when your so busy

Ivr had proba with that and is painful. I saw gastro and was given linaclotide which is laxative/ prokinetic. But you can take up to 8 movicol a day and does take a few days to work, tastes gross though
