Could this be endometriosis? I don't know what to do.
I don't know if I have endometriosis, but I've had awful periods from about day 1 on the first day of my period I'd always get immense pain in my abdominal area and would usually be sick, I'd sort of accepted my periods would be painful because sometimes ibuprofen would work. However more frequently

How do people keep their jobs? In a lot of pain and called in sick again!
How do people commute and function at work when they are in pain? I used to take codeine pre child but it made me sleepy and my brain wasn't exactly up to the mathematical office work I do. Nsaids irritate my bowel so I end up with IBS symptoms that make it difficult to leave house and paracetamol does

Would appreciate any thoughts or advice re fluctuating TSH results
Hi - thanks for letting me join and would be grateful for some advise please. Posted last week to explain that had my TSH checked in Dec 2016 and came back 'normal' at 1.68. Then checked again this time requested by a gynae consultant in Dec 2017 when it had risen to 8.68. Spoke to my GP after Christmas

Bisphosphonates and the dentist
I went for a check up at the dentist yesterday and I was pleased to be able to tell him that I didn't have the third yearly infusion of zoledronic acid because, at last, I had the dexa scan I had been asking for. The result of the dexa scan actually showed improvement from the last one, twelve years

Maybe endometriosis? Prostap recommended.
Hello everyone :) I just joined this group and I am hoping to get some advice, whether medical or experiences people have had, etc. A lot of background, but may help: 10+ years ago, at an estimate, diagnosed with PCOS. When puberty started and I began to get PCOS symptoms it was ultimately dismissed

Endometriosis help!
Hi all, I’m wondering if you could help me. I had a laparoscopy in 2015 due to suspected endometriosis after experiencing painful sex and bleeding. I’ve always suffered with bad period pains which I thought was “normal” To the point where I am lay on the sofa in agony. I came off the pill in February

Goodbye Alendronic Acid
I was prescribed AA in Jan 2014 when my GP diagnosed PMR. Having started on 40mg Pred I reached 4mg in December. Iasked my GP about giving up AA, and she said no, so I asked for a DXA scan. This happened before Christmas, and I was told that the result would be with my GP in 10-15 days. Yesterday I received

thoughts from a newby
Only found this site recently (and started docetaxel 2 days ago). Much helpful info, well organised, with useful links. My only thought for improvement is that the abbreviations and nomenclature is confusing for a beginner. Names of medecines vary from country to country. Even ADT floored me for a while

Alpha Lipoic Acid, anyone?
Greetings to all, hope we all get a new health outlook in 2018. I got my 3 month follow up result back yesterday and to my surprise, the number is much better than before. AST: 29, ALT:19, ALP: 65. Even AMA M2 went from 30 to 25. My liver enzyme has always been fluctuating between high normal or slightly

Extreme period pain/endometriosis?
Hello, looking for someone possibly in a similar situation. I have experienced horrendous painful and heavy periods for over 13 years. About 5 years ago I realised this was not normal and when I felt confident enough to seek help as I couldn’t stand the pain any more I visited the GP. They suggested

Thanks
for all the responses to yesterday's post. All your experiences and insights are so welcome particularly the good advice about 'recovery' and pacing myself. I started a new drug this morning, Alendronic Acid which is to prevent bone loss in women. At least I only have to take it once a week. So a change

Doctor refused morphine and laughed at me!
So I have been in constant extreme pain for a month now since my surgery and diagnosis - also had mirena fitted. I have been taking max doses of codeine, tramadol and paracetamol. I tried gabapentin without effect. Whenever I take any NSAID medications like ibuprofen, naproxen I get worse cramps and

History of very "Refractory" PMR
Although I seldom post since there are others, including the "Aunties" who know much more than I do, I thought it might be instructive to describe my case of long-term PMR. First Dx'd on the basis of raised Plasma Viscosity in 2003, about four months after retiring from full time work in the Aerospace
