Abdominal pain

I have a new & different abdominal pain it started a few days ago several days on it’s still there and still just as painful.

It feels like something really heavy is almost sitting on my stomach and crushing it, I’ve never experienced a pain like it before has anyone else?

I regularly take buscopan and they are usually amazing however they are not touching this pain nor are pain killers, I have tried hot water bottles, warm baths and my tens machine.

It’s a new pain that I’m struggling to deal with and I keep questioning myself what I can do to help, I get slight relief if I put myself in the fetal position any advice or suggestions greatly appreciated

Hi have you tried stronger painkillers like

Codeine or tramadol?

As it’s a new pain, book in to see your GP or phone NHS24 as you need to make sure it’s not something other than your endo x

Not what you're looking for?
