Advice needed - endo after hysterectomy

[Mookie26]

Good afternoon,

A little bit about me, I had endo symptoms since I was 17, after many years and 7 consultants I finally got diagnosed at 29. I had a hysterectomy at 30, my ovaries were left. For 5 years I seemed fine but I slowly started to get a pressure every month. It was not painful but I knew it was my cycle. Told GP told me it was fine. Slowly the pressure has changed into discomfort and now pain. I am now 42 and the last 3 cycles have been bad. I have increased pressure on my bladder, severe period type cramps and severe backache.

Today I ended up in A&E and like 12 years ago I was just given loads of pain relief and sent home. I have had codine, muscle relaxant, strong anti inflammatory and morphine and I am still in pain.

I explained to both Dr's my history and neither took me seriously. The GP has ordered an ultrasound scan which is next week but I know endo doesn't show up on scans.

I really don't know where to go or what to do. I can not go back to what I had before my hysterectomy.

Any advice would be gratefully recieved.

Many thanks

Jen

My endo and Aden showed up on an internal ultrasound but not on MRI?? As long as they know what they are looking for hopefully it will be clear?
