Bowel Endometriosis

[Deborah100]

Anyone else got bowel endometriosis? I have been told by my doctor that I have all the symptoms and I am waiting for a Lap. Major pain during period, severe pain on the right handside, bleeding from bottom, bright pink blood, anaemic! I would love to hear from anyone else who is in the same situation.

Yes I have it on my bladder, bowel and kidney.

It's just really painful nothing like it.

When you go to toilet,pain when you sit, pain when you open your bowels and when you empty the bladder.

Not really much to do about it other than pain meds, hot water bottle, tens machines and eventually surgery to remove what they can.

Hi,

I had surgery in June for severe Endo that had spread to my bowel. Surgery was the best option for me. If there is anything you need to ask feel free?

Hope you get sorted soon. My story is on my profile if this helps x

I recently had a complete hysterectomy 2 weeks ago had severe pain with cycles & every ovulation abs constant vertigo since February! When they operated on me they did find Endometriosis all over and some had spread to my bowel. And I had read an old post on here from 5 years ago lots of ladies same stuff going on and one of them said her dr told her that the Endometriosis on the bowel can cause the vertigo and brain fog! After her surgery the vertigo went away in about 2 months! And it kinda makes sense cause my ob said cause of the endo I can’t take any hormones for 3 months and whatever is left behind solid die off in this time! So I am very hopeful that the vertigo and all goes away soon! Will post an update when it does!

Hi, I'm waiting for a second lap and the doc thinks I have rectovaginal endo, I get constant lower back pain and a lot of pain when I open my bowl, I also have blood a lot of the time/sometimes clots which I worry about. Hope things get better with you and you get the answers you need.
