I need advice on endo symptoms.

[MellMelly]

I have severe endo plus cysts and everything else! But my periods are always on time, every 28days, which has not always been the same growing up, I dont know how they returned to regular but they did.

This period was different on the 18th Sept, I was spotting light pink and brown, 4 days before my actually period then the next day it was alot heavier than usual and just randomly stopped by the end of that day, so I thought my normal period had came early.

I was in so much pain like my womb was being ripped down and out and my belly was pushed out like I was 9 months pregnant, i decided to go on a walk when I had the strength to even get up. I only got down the street and felt so dizzy I had to sit on the end of the pavement, my partner lent me against the wall and I completely collapsed and blacked out, I was very out of breath and the pain was so bad.

He rang the ambulance but I refused the service as I'm sick to death of just going there just for them to give me painkillers for 6 hours. I'm not saying they dont do a good job I'm just saying I could do that in my own care, without wasting theirs.

Now 1 week later I'm spotting pink and brown blood randomly again which has never happened before??? my boobs have gotten so big, my belly has gone down thankfully, but I'm still feeling really out of breath, with heart burn.

I've heard women with endometriosis are at greater risk of heart disease. Now I'm just worried even more, along with the stress I already feel.

Has anyone else had symptoms like this???

I get pains in abdomen, pelvis and kidneys, occasionally legs feel weird.

If you go back to GP use their online consultation form, it’ll be on the surgery website. You’ll be able to list symptoms and pain, etc. It’s written so harder to avoid.

Are you due for an operation to deal with it?

Thankyou, defi will do. I've had 2 operations now, I dont wanna go for another because of the scar tissue as I want to be able to go for ivf. X

I suffer leg and foot pain. Do you see a specialist?

[MellMelly in reply to thara9643]

Oh wow is it because of endo? I need to see a gp about the recent symptoms but other than that I'm being transferred to another specialist.

Mell, Just a thought.. have you done a pregnancy test? Implantation can cause spotting, sore boobs, fainting, heartburn. x

[MellMelly in reply to LaurPharm]

No, I'm always getting let down docs said I need ivf, maybe I should try cos I'm still having symptoms xx

I would try to get checked out. Irregular bleeding can be a sign of new, possibly serious issues. You may need bloodwork or an ultrasound.

I know, I'm worried now because I'm still having symptoms, thankyou for the advice though x
