What were your endometriosis symptoms?

[EmmaLouiise]

Hello, new here. I was just wondering what your symptoms was. I believe I may suffer from this but I’m not 100% sure. I don’t get this every period, it is random, but These are my symptoms when it does happen...

My body tried to get everything out it’s system so I Vomit and have diarrhoea, Extreme pain in lower stomach, Extreme cramps, Muscle ache all over legs and thighs, Dizziness and Light headed Which nearly makes me Faint. The pain I get in my lower stomach is excruciating and nothing makes it better.

Hey, it sounds like you could have endo. My symptoms are lower abdominal pain most days (to the extent I sometimes can’t stand up straight - feels like hot stabbing pain or cramping/twisting pain), ibs symptoms, nausea on my bad flare days, lower back pain, bloating, painful periods, painful sex and fatigue.

Keep going to your doctor until you get a referral to a specialist. It took 7 years for me to get a diagnosis, I kept getting told it was ibs or dysmenorrhea. Hope this helps.

Hi

Mine were different to yours and I expect others will say the same. Because us ladies have all our bits in the same area suggest you get appointment with your GP, write down all your symptoms and your GP should refer you to the appropriate consultant. Good Luck!

Yes I get all of these except vomiting I only ever feel nauseous also I bleed from both ends really bad shooty pains when emptying bowels frequent uti infections, fainting and difficulty walking when I’m on! I’ve had it for 16 years and just waiting to hear back from the doctors to see if it’s attached to my bowel. I’d definitely get checked out at the doctors and push for a referral to a endo specialist. The best way for anyone to no is a laparoscopy. Hope you get sorted soon 🙂
