Flare ups

[A1987]

Hey all,

I’m really struggling at the moment endo flare ups and becoming more frequent and the stabbing bum pains unbearable! I think the stress of COVID-19 and wanting to be safe is making it worse. On top of that I am one of six still working whilst everyone else has been furloughed..... I also keep bleeding.... my periods usually last for 14 days anyway but my cycle is up the wall and I’ve bled for most of the month.

I don’t know what to do but wanted to let everyone know they are not alone and we are all still struggling together

Sorry you’re having to hold the fort in all of this, especially in pain.

Have you spoken to GP about the pain and bleeding?

Thank you for your reply.... usually I would go to the GP but it has been impossible for me to get a consolation of any kind.... I’ve had excision surgery twice and currently have the merena coil.

Hope you have success with GP, you should get a call. I find the online form much easier to get things sorted.

Hi

Keep trying to get at least a phone consultation with your GP he/she has a duty of care to try and keep you pain free
