Pressure on right side

Hi there! I have an appointment next week so I know I'll have some time to talk to a gynae about this, but I was wondering if anyone has experienced similar.

In February, I started feeling a pressure on my lower right side in my pelvis. I went to the GP about it and they send it was a bit swollen and that my lymph nodes in my groin on that side were enlarged. They send me for an external ultrasound (not transvaginal) to check out the lymph nodes and said they were definitely enlarged but nothing looked concerning and my case got dropped.

Now the past three weeks, I have had extreme bloating that never goes down so my stomach always feels heavy and this same pressure on my right side is so much worse. I don't know how to explain it other than it feels full and like my skin is stretching around it. It's a weird sensation and I feel like I cant do anything because it's so uncomfortable. I've been taking time off work to cope. My lymph nodes have also been really swollen again.

Sorry for the long post but just wondering if anyone has experienced this and found out it was linked to endo? My appointment next week is with a endo specialist after a 6 month wait for referral so I want to make sure I ask for the right tests and scans to get this sorted out! And if anyone has experienced this and has tips for relief, that would be much appreciated because I am finding it so so difficult right now!
