My doctor actually prescribed me a muscle relaxer. It helps me more than ibuprofen did. Hope you get some relief soon. 💛

I'm sorry you're not getting the pain relief you need. Have you tried seeing a pain management specialist ? I'm seeing one who's also an endo specialist. She prescribed me Gabapentin to take every day for my pain and Tramadol for flare ups. To be fair, Tramadol only takes the edge of the pain. I used to also take morphin with paracetamol but my pain specialist made me stop.
Also like @A MyEndometriosisTeam Member said, muscle relaxers can help. I take Valium for my generalized anxiety disorder and it does relax my muscles and somehow helps my cramps a bit ! I would not recommend using it every day though since it is addictive. I hope you find relief soon 💕

I'm sorry your dealing with this. Are these two doctors you see gynecologists? Have you considered seeing other doctors or gynecologists to see if they'll take your endo more seriously? Since ibuprofen isn't going to cut it. I find a heat pack helps me when I'm in between pain medications. But I wish you luck and hope you can find something more sustainable.

I normally take mybullen tablets when am in pain, so far so good. They seem to be working though sometimes they make me sleepy

Thank you for the answers! When I change GPs I’ll look into seeing a pain specialist.
