I been in a 3 week period (yay nexplanon) and i noticed that pains have come back like before. I had exision surgery on nhs march 2018 found stage 3 and cut it outi n 40 minutes which i find a bit bizre looking back. My bladder pain improved and so did my leg pain. However i been getting lots of lower back pain, rib pain, scapula pain, pain around where i thibk my kidneys are,. I had intense nausea and indigestion for a week and i wonder what you experiences are. It can range from dull to sharp to burning, acid feeling, poking especially in the ribs. Usually bothaides sometomes more on the left My lower back feels like a bit knot and i have forgotten a lot of the self care thati used to do to manage pains outside of pelvis anytips or stories i love to hear.

Hello and Im so sorry to hear of all your pains. I feel us endo ladies put up with far too much pain, we get used to it when really, it needs to be checked out each episode.
I would take myself to hospital and get a pelvic ultrasound to check there hasnt been an endo bleed, check your white cell count and inflammatory markers to make sure you are ok. These types of pains happened to me two months in a row just before my period it turned out I'd had an ovarian endo bleed and it was infected. I spent 4 days in hospital on an I V antibiotics drip. Please dont put up with the pain like I did - get it seen to right away. I am now waiting on surgery to cut out the ovarian endo, bowel endo and whatever else they can find. I have a Mirena which is great for my period pain and will be starting on hormones to control the pelvic and bowel endo re-growth.
Sorry to hear you been through it, sounds quite the ordeal!! I will be contacting doctors soon im awful at putting it off, thank you for motivating me to get this checked out!
