Hi lovelies,
I'm not sure were to start but is it possible for Endo to missed?
I had a laparoscopy in June 2017 and they said no Endo was found but I did have a cysts on my left ovary. This was drained. Although I did have an internal scan in Jan 2018, the nurse asked about my symptoms and she told me my ovaries are very sticky and I found the internal scan so painful I asked her to stop.
I also had the Minerva coil fitted to help with pain and to hopefully stop my periods ( my periods were all over and caused me to collapse and bleed very heavily).
Now I'm still suffering with constant pain, pain during and after sex, bloating - pain in my lower back. I have a little spotting but no bleeding.
I've been back to my GP twice and a nurse within 4 months. The first time he gave me pain killers, told me that the lap is the only thing that can say yes or no - and that the nurse doing the scan may not have been skilled enough. I ignore his response but agreed to try these soon killers. Amitriptyline. I took one before bed, and by day two I struggled to function so stopped.
I decided to see the nurse, who read my history and said really I need to speak with my GP. Although did agree that further investigation is needed. To help with my bloating and to rule out constipation, I had a mild laxative for a week.
I saw my GP last Friday, I just cried all the way home. He told me all my symptoms have been investigated - end of. He believe all my pain is down to IBS. IBS!!! 😡
Has anyone got any advice ?? Or had a similar experience and how did you deal with it.
PS I'm currently off work today because I'm unable walk properly and the pain is so much I was sick this morning.
Thank you, sorry for the long reply.
