Pain !

[Lucy_x]

Hi ladies ,

The last 3 days I’ve had a really sharp pain in my right side , it’s quite low down rather than my actual stomach if you like and it has been coming and going - although today that pain has been there pretty constantly .

I checked my period checker and I am meant to be ovulating anytime so wondering if it’s that ?

Just wondering if anyone has any advice or similar experience ?

It’s not agony pain just quite uncomfortable ! I have had ovulation pain before but usually goes with over the counter medication and not for as long !

Thankyou

Lucy xx

Hi

Do you have endo?

[Lucy_x in reply to introuble]

Hello !!! I’m in the middle of being seen my many specialists at the moment so nothing official has been said yet x

Hi,

Sorry for your pain. I knos the feeling and you not alone.

We re in the same boat.

My pain is on my right side too, sometimes mild and sometimes having too much bad pain and it’s constant pain. I can feel it all the time.

*Right now I’m in sooooo much pain

Sorry for the pain you’re in too ! It’s so rubbish! I’ve dosed up on ibuprofen and topped up hot water bottles ! I hope you start to feel better xx

Oh i just read your few past posting!

You already had a laparoscopy done right? And nothing found?

[Lucy_x in reply to introuble]

Apparantly not , although the doctor is now backtracking saying ‘well it may be there but just not enough for us to see’ and am seeing 4 consultants as well x

Hey why don’t you visit the FB page of Nancy Nook endometriosis education. The general obyg gynecologist don’t know where to remove from and there are only a handful of experienced endometriosis excision specialist in the world for over a million women suffering from Endo!!

I plan on visiting one since I have started to have pain in my kidneys.

Right side could also be appendicitis. I had to get my appendix removed due to ovary as Endo had attacked my appendix too

Hi Lucy

Any chance, given the low position, that it could be appendicitis?

If the pain lessens under pressure or you start vomiting, go to hospital. It can start out pretty mild but can progress quickly.

Hope whatever it is you feel better soon.

Hi Lucy, sorry for your pain. If it carries on and is painful to touch, please go to A&E to rule out appendicitis.

I had this sort of pain last year and had to go to hospital. It wasnt appendicitis but it was severe endo. I hope you feel better.

Also Ibuprofen is a culprit in destroying stomach lining (i had gastritis and now so many other stomach and digestive issues because I used it so much during my periods), so I would advise that you be careful with using it.

Take care xx

Ovulation pain even when bad shouldn't last more than 48hrs. Its worth checking out if its appendicitis. I was admitted with suspected appendicitis last summer which after a clear CT scan was blamed on a cyst rupture but actually it was a bad endometriosis attack. I had excision surgery 5 months later. But if it gets worse or you vomit definitely attend a&e!

Thankyou everyone for your replies , I’ve had people in my family have appendicitis and it’s been much worse than the pain I’m experiencing so I’m not really sure what it is x

Hi Lucy, Way back in 2003 I had pain like that which slowly got worse. I first noticed it when going from a sit to a stand. Then when my bladder was full and having to pass water. Then it was all the time.

When I had my operation in 2005 they said that my endometriosis was really bad on my right side (well actually it was really bad all over but there was a lot going on that side!) and it was pulling my Fallopian tube down on to my bladder.

All has been great after having the endometriosis removed.

I hope with all your many specialist appointments you get to the bottom of it and you are pain free soon.

Have you had any scans done yet?
