Period pain with endometriosis on bladder and rectum

[Escapologygirl]

Happy New year to you all endowarriors and apologies for the TMI but I started my period yesterday and I was so sore and bloated, I looked pregnant and stomach was hard to touch and the extreme foul farting was beyond embarrassing. I could not poop no matter how much I wanted to. The feeling of being pulled apart and the pain was crippling but it felt like a block was there preventing me from pooping Anyone else having this

I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2018 and it was already on bladder and rectum and no further action would be taken by surgeon 'for fear of damaging other organs!'

I'm on ponstan for pain 500mg 3 times Daily and even on that yesterday the pain was bad and going to the toilet was horrible.

Hi nanomyous, I don't think that is a fluke about the antihistamine, there is actually a connection between excess histamine & endo - endometriosis.net/clinical/... . I discovered it recently when I started getting unexplained face rashes that appeared after eating. I started a low histamine diet & a lot of my symptoms have improved on it. I'm sure it doesn't apply to all endometriosis sufferers, but for some of us I think it's definitely worth looking into x

Thanks for replying, I've been on this pain relief for 2years now and haven't noticed so definitely food for thought.
