hi all,
Ioestrin 30 has been the pill Ive always been on (12+ years ) other than trying one other pill after the birth of my daughter (femodette) which really didn't agree with me so i went back onto loestrin 30 but I've struggled to get hold of it over the last 6 months and now cant get a hold of it at all, its currently unavailable from the manufacturer. So my gp has prescribed me Microgynon which i should of started after my 7 day break over a week ago but maybe a bit silly of me but i didn't start it, my anxiety got the better of me. I was scared, worried of a new tablet and side effects!
Is anyone on microgyon, what are your thoughts on it please?
how do i now go about starting it if i wish to do so?
my pains are now really high, which i guess was to be expected as i think loestrin took the edge of at times yet I've still had 4 laps last been excision in July however since then my pains have increased when i hoped i may get a small break! i know endo grows back but i wasn't expecting to have no relief and pains get worse.
I suffer really bad with rib pain (new symptom since Jan but it never goes away its getting worse) , shoulder, neck,back and groin pain (along with everything else, pelvic pains, stabbing vaginal pains, hip and leg pains, fatigue, migraines, bowel troubles etc) the last consultant (bsge, now discharged) thought it seemed i had endo on my diaphragm yet when the lap was done i was told all that area was clear, they found endo on my left ovary, behind my womb and dotted around then told me on the only follow up phone call that it was on my pouch of Douglas and right pelvic wall.
Was it missed on my diaphragm, has this happened to anyone? has anyone been worse of after excision?
I got referred to rheumatology early on in the year from physio for my hip and shoulder as i was told it wasn't working and they believe there's something more going on along with my own gp have said they think its fibromyalgia. I've since had blood tests, x-rays and an MRI to see whats going on, they thought it was perhaps psoriatic arthritis (finger nails ridged and pitted) it didn't show, they've not mentioned fibro. At my last appointment they prescribed me arcoxia 60mg then increase to 90mg neither of which have given me any relief. in the appointment she discussed putting me on a nerve drug like amitriptyline yet when i left and looked at my prescription it was the arcixia, not a nerve drug!
i feel like im not getting anywhere, my pain levels are increasing and i don't have a medication to help with the pain all that ive tried don't work.
thank you if you've got this far reading my rant and thank you in advance if anyone has any advice xxx
