I'm not too bad thanks, just waiting for surgery really. On double desogestrel but still bleeding pretty much constantly. I also have diaphragm/chest/rib/shoulder pain on my left side. Don't know whether it's related to the large cyst or if I have endo higher up than just my pelvis... Worried about it but I don't know if I can get an appointment with my consultant right now.How are you?

Might be worth giving gynae sec a ring, they can only say yes or no, alternatively speak to GP and ask them to arrange an urgent appointment with gynae. 🤞 for you 🙂

Done. Got a bit passive-aggressive by the end.

Done. Nice and honest about my (not) supportive employers! The fact I have to justify my pain and explain what endo is! They’ve put me on absence monitoring when they know I have this condition and am waiting for surgery. Won’t consider flexible working as they don’t want to set a precedent!! So yeah all that has gone on there! Thanks for the link.
