Hi everyone,
so here's a little background:
I have a history of endometriosis. In 2009 I underwent laporoscopy treatment and have been fitted with IUDS since that stoppped all symptoms.
over the past couple of months I have been dealing with severe abdominal pain. Both focused all over my lower abdomen and with the pain radiating from my right lower abdomen.
A couple of weeks ago my stomach suddenly ballooned and the pain was excruciating. I fainted, felt breathless and nauseous. I was advised to go straight to A&E by my GP which I did.
they gave me an ultrasound which showed a small cyst and I was sent home.
my stomach continued to be bloated and a week later I was back at the hospital.
this time they said they didn't think the cyst would cause as much pain because of size and suggested it was a flare up of my endo. They said they want to monitor the cyst as it is filled with blood (not sure what this means implication wise). They sent me home with painkillers.
i feel exhausted. Nauseous everyday, little interest in food. My urine passes in a trickle although I feel I need to go every half an hour, constant stomach pain and bloating.
I'm booked in for a further ultrasound to look at the cyst in 5 weeks.
should I be pushing to see a doctor again before this? I'm concerned that the impact day to day I'm experiencing means there's something more worrying going on.
thank you so much for reading and I appreciate any replies x
