Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.
I have been dealing with a weird pain for about 10 years. I was diagnosed last October after going through several doctors( for those of you who dont know me) After the surgery, I had about 3 months of terrible pain, then the next 3 months it was better... now its back and somewhat worse then before the surgery. I am not able to go on any type of BC because of the side effects it causes on me. I have been using the TENS Machine, which tends to just dull out the pain a bit. Here is my question...
I have had this pain since as long as I could remember and I want to know if any of you have had it. It feels like someone is taking a knife to your vagina bone. Its so intense that it takes the wind out of me. Worse there is never any warning! I could be at the store or at dinner when it hits and it hurts so bad that I scream. I just dont know what to do, or if I can some how control it. It also seems to HIT and then 2 times again right after. Its like a sharp and short blast to my bone.
Please let me know if you have experienced this, and what do you do to help. Its a bit embarrassing to be out in public and be walking along and then it hits you and you have to scream out loud because it hurts so bad.
Thank you for your time ladies,

It kind of sounds like your pelvic muscles are spasming. Have you ever tried Pelvic Floor Therapy? I did it for about 8 weeks before my last surgery & although it didn't take away my "endo pain," it definitely helped with the muscle spasms that I felt in my abdomen, vagina & rectal are, food for thought.
Hope you start to get some relief soon, what you are going through sounds terrible!
I understand the feeling and the pain after my lap like 1 month later, i started getting that same pains, and i would stand still and just try and breath slowly as well and try and keep clam,
I couldnt even speak the 1st few times I got this pain, once in public the pain started and i just stood very still and my hubby was so confused and i couldnt explain to him what was happening until it passed.
the tieing of your shoes works well, i have tried that i have also had my hubby make as if he is tieing them for me while i hold on to him just bending abit over to relax for the pain to stop
hope some of these tips help :)
Thanks again ladies!
