What Does Everyone Take For Their Pain? (Pain Medication Wise)

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Melbourne, AU

Hey everyone, I try a lot of non-medication related ways to help with my pain but doesn’t always work. I take Panadol and nurofen usually but it doesn’t always do the trick. What does everyone take for bad flare ups? Xx

I have been recommended to try a TENS unit, but I have not yet. From things I read, a lot of people have success with it. It is an expensive investment if it doesn’t help though. I am going to try and see if my insurance will cover one.

I was initially placed on codeine, then the doctor and the department of reproductive endocrinology placed me on Dilaudid. I honestly don’t take it most of the time, but I have endo on my skin, on my intestines, my stomach, and part of my lung, so when it’s bad, I take it.

I would suggest cannibas, indica for body high

Thank you Janelle x might try Advil to see if that works any better. Thanks for your response

I usually take advil and use multiple heating pads. It doesn't fully get rid of the pain but takes a huge edge off it making it much more bearable.
