Bad Cramping on left side

I’m at work and keep getting bad cramping pain on my left side. I’m a couple of days away from ladies week. I have endo in my pelvic wall and am due to have a lap and dye next month. It’s usually more lower back pain but this cramping is rather bad. Is this normal with endo?

Hi Lorraine.

It could be that you have endo in your abdomen as I did, it depends if its just a one off with the pains in your left side. If it is just a one off then maybe its not what I'm suggesting.

As I was getting pains in my left side pretty constantly before surgery last year , I also have back ache as well. (I have the pains in my left side occasionally now but I think the Endo is coming back slowly), I also had endo at the front and back of the uterus and both sides of the abdomen and also the bowels which were fused with the uterus.

It is normal to have side pains with endo but I think it would suggest endo in the abdomins from what my specialist surgeon told me

Hope this helps
