I think that the Depoprovera is ravaging my body. Bone pain and erosion was stated as a side effect. I was told take calcium and I will be fine. I am diligent in taking my calcium supplements yet and still my bones feel sore and painful especially in my feet when I walk. The pressure makes me feel like the bones in my feet are breaking. On top of that, my emotions are all over the place in the worst way possible. So now my doctor wants to switch me to mirena iud. Honestly, I dont know if I… read more

Does anyone feel that ibuprofen or Tylenol help??? My doctor keeps telling me to take both at the same time and it doesn't help whatsoever!!!!!!!!! I don't know what to do!!! If you ask for anything stronger they think you're just a drug seeker 😡😡😡 this is so upsetting to me!

Have flare ups that cause uncontrollable vomiting and need to go to the ER for pain meds? :(

Does anyone else take Tramadol for your pain? That is what I have until my surgery. Although it seems like every time I take it the next few days my pain comes back worse then it was when I initially took the Tramadol. It has happened to me multiple times now. Does this happen to anyone else?

I have been taking vicodin pretty regularly since November of 2016, prescribed by my doctor of course. She warned me about depends and addiction but when it comes to being in horrible deep pain everyday that nothing else touches it seemed completely worth the risk. Specailly since i have been dealing with the constant pain for years. Just to not have to be in pain or at least less pain for a little while. Specially when IT comes to the monthly "episodes" that makes me feel like I am dieing and… read more

I was diagnosed with endo about a year ago, had a lap and had minimal endo tissue removed. Since then I’ve been on loloestrin continuously but my pain has not changed. I get terrible lower left side pelvic pain (usually later in the day) which also makes my stomach puff up and I look pregnant. It also radiates to my back. The pain is so bad sometimes I have to take Vicodin (which I don’t like taking) and it still doesn’t go away. Usually only goes away after a nights sleep. I also have cramping… read more

I've had intense pain since the start, but I was used to having really intense fare ups that would last for a day or two and then I would recover. As I've gotten older I've noticed that I'll have a constant level of lesser pain everyday but it'll go on for weeks and I won't be able to think. It's like all my brain can do to tell me you're in pain, you're in pain, you're exhausted, go home; but I won't be able to think about much else. I'm really strict with when I take my heavy hitters (Percocet… read more

With this Endometriosis pain and the heavy bleeding associated with it, what measures do you take to not have to miss work because of your symptoms?

After my latest endo cut - its found as well as PID its now turned to my liver and into the chronic condition
Fitz-Hugh–Curtis syndrome is a rare complication of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) involving liver capsule inflammation leading to the creation of adhesions. This is a rare but complication of Hughes syndrome. Typically, a healthy patient with Hughes syndrome suddenly develops multiple clots in various vital organs, including the brain, heart, lungs or liver. The reason for this is… read more

I have always been very curious to know the difference between endometriosis pain and pregnancy pain. After I heal from my surgery on Thursday I will be trying to get pregnant. I would like to know what to expect when it comes to labor pain. It may sound weird but I feel like once I go though labor I can more accurately describe my pain level to people. I can say that it feels like someone is stabbing my right ovary with a dull red hot icepick but I have never actually been stabbed so, I do not… read more
