the pain that is the nhs!
after 2yrs of struggling with the pain in my left side, and numerous visits to the g.p who originally diagnosed a hernia and sent me to a specialist, who said although i do have surgical lesions on my section scar thats not the cause of the pain. back to the g.p who said it must be gynecological possibly endometriosis. another specialist another trip to the hospital. on my second visit i was told i have polysistic ovaries but that wasn't the cause of the pain in my left side, the gynecologist said the pain is coming from my bowel, probably due to the paralytic illeus (bowel packing up temporarily), after my section with my son 15 years ago and i would have to go to a bowel specialist to find out whats going on. so now i've got to wait for yet another appointment with a different department. in the meantime i'm still in pain, but on the bright side that is why the mefenamic acid wasn't touching it!!
