Hi Kamna. It looks like you have edometriosis. Do the ultrasound . Maybe you also need laparoscopy. Thats medicine what you are taking, doesn't help. It depens what they see on usltrasound. Goid luck. Don't leave it. It's your health.

Hi Kamna1

We're so sorry to hear that you're having a really tough time of it at the moment and are especially concerned to hear you say that you've stopped eating because you're worried about the potential pain from bowel movements.

It's really important that your symptoms are properly looked into (and taken seriously) by your GP in order to find out the underlying cause of your suffering (which - from what you describe - could well be endometriosis). If you're not satisfied with the service you are getting, then there are other options, which are outlined in our Getting Diagnosed Information Pack. You can find the link to it on our website at endometriosis-uk.org/gettin... - just scroll down on this page and you will find it. Please make an appointment with a medical professional as soon as possible.

If you need further support then we do have face-to-face support groups all over the UK that you can join. To find out if there's one in your area visit endometriosis-uk.org/find-a.... If not, there's also an online support group. In addition, we have a free Helpline (0808 808 227) that is open most days and manned by volunteers who all have personal experience of endometriosis. Please do reach out - the times it is open can be found here: endometriosis-uk.org/helpline

Take care - we're all here for you and you're certainly not alone x
