In October 2020 I had appendicitis for them it to be discovered I have endometriosis l. I always thought that it was normal to have heavy periods and be in constant pain (which I found out was not the case). I had my first surgey in 2021 to remove it and a coil put in however 3 years on and been told I need another surgey. I’m in constant pain , feel completely alone does anybody understand and does the pain ever go away ? Xx

Hi

How are you feeling today?

Sorry you’re having a tough time, the pain can reduce with operations. Did they remove your appendix before? Have you had a recent MRI to check there’s nothing else going wrong? Once you get diagnosed with Endo they seem to forget other things for some reason.

I’ve had gallbladder out as well as appendix and each time pain has reduced.

Not what you're looking for?
