Struggling now for 4 days with severe nerve pain down my right leg particularly at night
Also have really sore area on back of ribs
Not sure if I have tweaked my back which is deferring the pain or if my Endo is irritating the nerve ?
Just don’t know what to do with myself as cannot stay in bed as cannot get into a comfortable position it is agonising ! Takes me 20 minutes to just try to sit up
Can anyone else relate to this ?
I have a pelvic scan today as the doctor was concerned may be ovarian cysts
Seeing my surgeon next week
Had excision surgery for stage 4 endo and small bowel resection last October

I would go see a GP and get your back checked, I've had sciatica like this for 6 months + from a slipped disc but it's best to check it's just a tweak and nothing serious, you can also get help from a physio (that's really helped me) if it seems to be your back. Nerve pain is really nasty isn't it xx
I have had this since my second lap two years ago. Have severe endo, and told potentially nerve damage from the surgeries causing the leg pain. Ask to see a pain clinic, they are very helpful. X
Thanks for your reply xxx I am a little concerned this could be a side effect of the pro strap injections I had last year ? Yes I’m thinking pain clinic could be an option xxx
