Morning ladies, just after a bit of advice really. I've been in a lot of pain now for the last week but the last 24 hours have been hell, I've had 3 operations so far for my endo the last one being September last year. I am in constant pain and the pain in my left hand side is awful, I'm having a lot of pain and discomfort up my back passage and the pressure is awful, I've got lower back pain all the time. It has got so bad I've been considering calling an ambulance as I just can't cope with it anymore, I am a single mum of an 8 year old and I don't drive so can't get myself to a hospital even if I was able to with the pain I'm in. I've started to bleed and my bowels are so lose I'm in agony when I have to go. What would you ladies do if you were in my position, I can't take another 24 hours like this?

I'm hoping you either called a doctor and got an appointment or you went to hospital either by ambulance or even as an out of hours patient. Sometimes going as out if hours patient is better than waiting for a gp appointment as they can do alot more for you. Please give us an update? Hoping you are feeling better. Take care x

Thank you for the replies ladies.....i went into hospital via ambulance and lay in a corridor for 2 hours before being moved to a seating area, I was dosed up with oramorph and sent home. They said nothing they can do as it is a condition which I am seeing a consultant for and just need to get another appointment with him! Had to find my own way home on public transport as no one I knew could pick me up at the time, not the nicest of days especially when on morphine!

Aww I know your pain, I haven't had my surgery yet still waiting since December. But recently my specialist switched my pill from microgynon to destrogel and the last 5days has been hell. I have pain all over my pelvis, bowel and if I walk too fast or go upstairs my whole reproductive system feels like it's going to gush out. I then started what looks like a period from that pill. So I stopped the pill abs went back to the old pill. Only thing helping me is a water bottle in this weather.
