Do you ever feel you just exist because of this condition.

The past few weeks I have had no let up of my pain. I drag myself to work after a night of disturbed sleep. I come home shattered take some strong painkillers and it continues until weekend. Then now I'm on the couch with my hot water bottle napping on and off after taking my strong painkillers feeling like this isn't a life this is just existing.

I feel so guilty on my partner because if I'm bored of it... he must be!

Sorry just wanted to have a rant I know I should count myself lucky because I'm due to have surgery a few weeks but I'm worried that won't help and I'll just be stuck like this forever!

Rant over 🤦‍♀️

A I know how you feel!!. For me the pain was awful for a few years then was ok. I started peri menopause about 6 yrs ago and things got worse with the menopause but better with endo. Im now in menopause 😠 and having mad mood swings. Started the hrt and finally i started to feel normal again.... well shut my big mouth. The pain is worse than ever this weekend. Im a nurse and had to drag myself around with a hot patch on in a codine haze. I had to leave early.

Awful awful. All my family must be fed up seeing me laying around constantly moaning about it. I feel like it will never end. Im def sure we are not the only ones. 😍😍

I'm so sorry you're having such an awful time of it. I don't think anyone going through so much pain should count themselves lucky! I didn't have endo, it was heavy bleeding and anaemia and the utter exhaustion and brief monthly pain were bad enough. I had a bad back pain recently and got depressed very quickly from the lack of sleep. You are some kind of hero keeping on getting yourself to work through all this. Best of luck with your surgery. I hope it gives you a significant improvement. Hang in there xx
