What do you use to manage your pain?
Hello everyone, I come here looking for some help desperately. I had surgery booked to treat my endometriosis but after starting the surgery the surgeon ran into complications and couldn't actually treat me. I have been suffering for many years with pain on and off and it had always been put down to

I have had chest pain for 7 years..
Hi all It all started 7 years ago, I didn't do anything to cause it, atleast not from what I remember. I just had this chest at the centre of my chest going through to the tip of my left shoulder, like a spear going through my body. At 14 years of age I assumed the worse of course, but i went to the

Prescribed medication Nd RLS
Does anyone know which sleeping tablets and pain killers make RLS worse? After fairly major surgery I was given sleeping tablets in the hospital and was up all night walking around with terrible RLS. I was prescribed amitriptyline to take home and it definitely aggravated the RLS.

Hi all, I guess I'm just looking for someone to tell me I'm not going mad... I have booked a doctor's appointment, the first one to pursue a possible endo diagnosis, but I'm panicking that I'll just get told to get on with it or put on the pill etc. I have been struggling with increasingly worse periods

Pain & swelling control
Hi folks finally started methotraxte 26/07/21. There were times when I screamed and broke down crying with the pain, sure other people had a similar experience, not helped by the hospital losing my test results and having to undergo the X rays again, which took some time to organise. Still get pain

Lyrica for pain
I have taken Lyrica for pain for about 5 years. I take only 100mg 2x a day. While it's not perfect, it does take the edge off the pain. Especially sitting long periods, which now I don't have a choice really anymore. I'm progressive MS in a power wheelchair about 98% of the time. I do walk a bit each

Update on oestrogen treatment for non absorption of liothyronine. A warning!
In November last year, I started seeing an endo privately for my hypo problems. He told me he was an expert. He was very definite that my hypo symptoms were due to me not absorbing liothyronine as I should. He was very definite that the cause of this was my having lost too much oestrogen when I went

Should I have the laparoscopy?
I have had very irregular periods my whole life, a couple of occasions I’ve continued to bleed after my period should have finished or my period returned within a week. I get a lot of back pain and feels like I have a fork scratching away at my uterus especially in the weeks leading to my period. Sometimes

Pain management whilst trying for a baby?
Hello 🙂, I was fortunately diagnosed with endometriosis quite young (9 years ago, aged 18). Since then, I've had so many hospital admissions with excruciating pain where I've been given morphine and sent home. Thankfully I've found that the mini-pill completely eliminates the pain. We want to start

Priorities for achalasia research
One of the exercises we have been undertaking in Achalasia Action is trying to work out what research would gain most support from those with achalasia. After all, people with achalasia are the ones most affected! So this is a brief summary of our work so far, and we would value any comments, suggestions

Accute Pain In Shins And Ankles
Legs! Recently my legs have been in severe pain. After a few hundred yards walking on the street my ankles develop a pain, further on and the pain moves to my shin bones and muscles. Then I have to rest and lean on something unless a seat is nearby. Purchased disolving pain killers from Pharmacy. Chemist
