Had enough now

Seriously have had enough of this now. 2 laps and excision in the last 2 years. Severe pain and exhaustion in the last few months, currently taking Naproxen and Gabapentin after weaning myself of opiates. GP won't refer me back to my awful gynae ( who told me it wont be back for decades and goodbye), unless there are new symptoms, however these symptoms are exactly what I experienced with a ruptured cyst. If it wasn't for my cat ....

hello, I know how it feels when people don’t believe you 😡

Maybe ask you GP for referral to Endo centre?

I’d tell them you have a new symptom then if that’s the game they are playing .

Hi emm27 I am so sorry that you are in this position, stuck between all of the organisations that you need to help you.

I was always told thatonce I had had whatever surgery that the Endo was in theory gone! This was over 20 years ago and I know that things have evolved.

I have to agree with Endolemon to ask your GP for a referal to an Endo centre.

I have provided a link to a webinar, which is specifically about getting the most out of your gynae appointments:

Good luck and stay strong you can always vent to us all.

PS - I am also a Cat Mum to Rebel Trouble Junior Prescott XL10 (I went a big crazy when naming him!), I would be lost without him 😻😻
