Struggling with the pain tonight, ive taken my mefenemic acid and my amytriptyline but its not cutting it. My stomach feels so bloated, my ovaries hurt and my back is burning. Sat with my knees up to my chest debating on a trip to A&E. What can i do?

Oh no...

if the pain didn’t do, pls go to the A&E!

In the meanwhile try heating patches or hot water bottle ..

And if possible try get some rest and sleep

I know it’s hard :(

I’m sorry dear

If it's that bad they can try and manage the pain for you, thats something at least. Iv just came out of hospital after going to a+e and being admitted now iv got some meds that are giving me abit of relief xxx

Hi, I’ve had a few times when I’ve been like this. Medication doesn’t help, can’t sleep in too much pain!

If you’ve taken your medication and the pain isn’t easing go to A & E, they can give you some stronger medication that will hopefully ease the pain. I’ve been to A & E before and was given morphine etc, please don’t sit and suffer.

Hope all goes well and wishing you the best xx
