Bowel endo

Hi,

I had a resection in 2016 due to endo that had infiltrated my bowel wall. I had had previous surgery to remove endo. I have been fine since then until the last 6 months.

My periods have gone incredibly heavy and pelvic pain is starting to creep in. The issue is I have had bowel problems for 6 months. I feel sick and have lost a lot of weight as eating makes me feel ill. Plus I feel full during my period. My colonoscopy shows inflamation in my large bowel which they think is microscopic colitis and have prescribed steroids. However, with my worsening endo symptoms I am worried it is that.

Has anyone else had theirs return on the bowel post op or had similar symptoms? I am currently waiting for spinal surgery so I am not keen for any further investigations.

Thanks
