I suspect I have diaphragmatic endo. However due to numerous small bowel adhesions, my excision surgeon was unable to visualize my diaphragm.

Yes. Ive had it ever since being doagnosised in 2015. It actuallu got worse today that it has been in a long time

Hi! I have experienced pain under my left rib cage area one too many times. I guess it would be safe to say I’ve had this happen to me for maybe 3-4 years now and it got worse with time. I have nerve pain and was told that I could be having nerve ending pain which is causing the muscles by my rib to swell up causing pain. I got put on GabaPentin of 300mg and the pain has gone away very very slowly. For your case I’m not sure why you could be having the pain however what I can tell you is that endometriosis can’t be found through scans my two gynecologist have made that very clear to me.
I hope you get answers soon!

I have had pain like this since I was 14. I had excision on 2/3/20 in Atlanta with Dr. Jeff Arrington of the CDC. He tried visualizing my diaphragm but was unable due to numerous small bowel adhesions.

I am convinced I have diaphragmatic endometriosis.

Thanks so much this is really helpful. It feels like a flare up sometimes. May not feel it for days or weeks and then it just hits.
I will definitely raise it with my doctor again.
