How Do I Know That My Endometriosis Is Flaring Up?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have been experiencing pain in my right side that extends to my lower back and down my right leg it feels like a burning pain but at the same time it feels like ovulation pain feels on my side . I tried to touch the area it’s sore to the touch as well . I have emailed my gynae I’m waiting for a response . I am going to the GP today this pain is like wow and I’ve been ignoring it for a while now . My side is swollen too.

Update to the above I went to the GP and he advised it’s an Endo flare up I have to wait for my gynae to respond to my email . In the meantime he has given me anti inflammatory medication as well as muscle relaxers. It only eases the pain for a bit then it goes back to what it was . I want to cry I can’t even sleep on my right side it’s so sore 😞. This has to be the worse flare up I’ve experienced since being on treatment .
