I’ve posted a few times on here already and have found this site really helpful finding people to relate too. I haven’t got a diagnosis yet so still in the process of finding out what’s going on! Was just wondering if anybody else has this issue...sounds really strange but the only way I can describe it is almost like I feel sometimes as if my organs are being squashed, like sometimes it’s painful to take a deep breath and sleeping is then a problem as it feels like I’m almost being crushed depending on what position I try to sleep in. Sounds crazy but thats the best way to describe the feeling. Didn’t know if anybody else had anything similar?!

Hi. I’m also in the process of getting a diagnosis too and I also sometimes get pain just like you have described. I’ve noticed it mainly comes on before my period, but then some months I don’t get it! Not sure if your the same?

Well it’s really strange as I’m in daily pain anyway but it tends to get worse around my period...however I had a period last week and I’m not on now and it’s the worst I’ve been in a really long time. Can’t get comfortable at all and I don’t know how else to describe that pain other than feeling like my organs are being crushed! It’s like an effort sometimes to take a deep breath! I’m glad it’s not just me! I think I’m going crazy sometimes so it’s good to hear there’s other people experiencing the same as me! I’m down to have a laparoscopy in the next few months so we shall see x

Hoping that your pain eases soon and that you get answers with your laparoscopy. Your not going crazy as I totally have the same symptoms as you have described like you can’t breathe and a crushing sensation in your chest, mine only happens when I’m laid in bed. I haven’t seemed to notice it happening other than there. I get my MRI results next week and then see what happens next as my Gyno was mentioning a Hysteroscopy then a Laparoscopy x
