Hi All,
I've been having pelvic pain on and off for many years, but lived fine with it before.
However, in the last 5 months, it's gotten worst and in the last few weeks, it's gotten even worst again.
I've already done:
* All types of gynae assessments from a scan, to PAP and other tests, to colposcopy to a biopsy. I've seen top gynaes and they said it's unlikely to be gynae related. Normal period. Laparoscopy has not been done, I'm too anxious to have it.
* Seen hernia specialist, not that
* Did extensive gut testing, not that
* Saw chiro, not that
* Did MRI, but a long time ago, 5 years ago. Nothing major was found, and I nearly had a heart attack inside from anxiety as I'm colastrobhobic! So MRI is not easy to do again, or CT scan.
The doctors are puzzled, but 5 years ago a gynae picked a it enlarged pelvic veins on an ultrasound scan, though it hasn't been picked since.
The pain in right in the groin area and it's a pulling type of pain, any time of the cycle. Lately, it also feels like my pelvic has been numb. It's worst when I sit or lie down. I can walk and exercise fine.
I don't take pain killers for it, I bear the pain, but it's so intense.
I also have hypothyroidism (managed by medication) and Hashimoto's (slight).
My diet and lifestyle is very healthy. I've seen so many doctors about my issue...
Do the beautiful people of this forus have any advice for me as to what I could do to get to the bottom of things please?
