Tiredness/feeling unwell

Hi all!

I have large endometrioma and endo suspected, I am waiting for an op date to have cyst removed and endo if it’s there. Last few days I’ve felt really tired which I have had for years but not consecutive days, I’ve also had constant period type cramps and shooting pains and I feel full really quickly and can’t even think of some types of food as it makes me feel sick, I am definitely not pregnant and not due on for 2 weeks. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this?

Thanks in advance x

Hi there. I get this at ovulation worse than period time. Could be that?

I get them as well. Hot water bottle helps. Hope you will get your op date confirmed soon. Big hugs, it gets better x

Hello! I have the same during ovulation. And it is really worse after the laparoscopy. I take some natural medications to calm down my nerves and some pills like ibuprofen to decrease the pain.

How big is your endometrioma?

It was 6cm in October, that’s the last time I’ve had it checked x

Have you checked ferritin/iron? When you have endometriosis and endometrioma your iron level may be relatively low and some symptoms may be because of it.
