On prostap every 4 weeks now on 2nd injection but feeling sick and have pelvic stabbing pain ? Anyone else had the same ? Is it normal ?

[Sjxxx]

I'm 34 , i have stage 4 endometriosis after having 12 miscarriages and a still born daughter we are unable to conceive and ivf would be slim and high chance of other problems . Iv Had many operations and currently on prostap injections every 4 week and waiting for my full hysterectomy. Both of my tubes are blocked and stuck to my pelvic side wall , i have a cyst on my right over and my endometriosis has spread to my bladder and bowel which had lead to more problems. I am currently on hrt to help with some side affects but feeling very low. Anyone else in the same boat ?

Hi Sjxxx

So sorry to read about your struggles with endometriosis and miscarriage - you've had such a tough time of it and my heart goes out to you. Have you had any kind of counselling for the trauma you've experienced?

If you ever need someone to talk to, we do have a network of support services that are available to anybody affected by endometriosis. Our free helpline (0808 808 2227) is run by volunteers who have personal experience of endometriosis. The helpline is open most days - the times it is open can be found here: endometriosis-uk.org/helpline.

You may also find our support groups useful as a place where you can discuss endometriosis and the issues you are facing with other sufferers. Please visit endometriosis-uk.org/find-a... to find out if there is one in your local area. If there is not one in your area, we also have an online support group (separate to the forum).

Take care - wishing you all the best x
