My stomach

This is the 3rd day in a row where I’ve woke up and been curled up in a ball holding my stomach and all my muscles have tightened, back to the doctors today to try find some sort of pain management because nothing is working, I’m also struggling with my bowel, whether I eat or don’t eat, everything is just flushing through me, I’m so dehydrated all the time and I can’t keep any food down anymore😭

Has anyone else struggled with their bowel? Any help would be amazing

Much love ❤️❤️

Yes I've had similar bowel issues in 2017. Firstly you need something to stop your bowel cramping or overworking, so an antispasmodic medication like buscopan can help with this. That will enable you to sort the dehydration (you may want to look at rehydration drinks/powders for a few days). You can also look at your diet. I removed gluten from mine and that stopped the symptoms. Cow's milk dairy is another problem for a lot of endometriosis ladies (I haven't had it for 18 years). I hope you get some better pain relief soon:)

Hey! Thank you for replying, yeah I’ve cut write down on gluten and dairy, because I was finding products containing that, caused me severe cramping. I’m hoping the doctor today can give me some sort of drink or formula to help my stomach because I refuse to leave the house when I’m like this 😔
