Yesterday I was at work I have just finished my phased return to work after 8months off due to severe endo pain and an operation.

I was working 7-3 I had taken my morphine like normal before work but come half 7 the pain had started. It was getting worse and worse and people were telling me to go home they could see I was in pain. I work at a supermarket and was on the cigarette counter so I was having to hold on to the counter to stay stood up.

I thought right I will go home at 11 at least then I will have done 4 hours they can’t say I gave up to easy. Then I had my break at 11 and thought I will buy some painkillers and a heat patch put that on took painkillers and carried on the pain was bad but I managed to stay at work all day!

I no it sounds like a tiny thing but to me actually not let the pain beat me is massive!
