I think I've rewritten this over 10 times already so I think this will be the last time I try, sorry for writing another thread on this.
I'm Kate, I'm a 16 year old Network Engineering student.
I was always told that period pain was normal I've been suffering from bad periods since I was 12. I ignored it, I've taken pain killers upon pain killers but when since 14 I have been doing correspondence high school so I was able not to move every month so It wasn't too bad, it got too bad and decided to attempt to fix it, that this pain wasn't normal.
I went to a doctor and we tried;
mefenamic acid, pain killers (iburofen and panadine forte) and various other medicines.
I'm currently on tramal which is an opiate based drug meant for cancer patients.
I get to the stage where I can't move, that even with drugs I'm still crying and feeling like I'm being kicked. It's gotten bad, where I'm getting pain when I don't have my periods.
Any advice, anything really is appreciated.
I went to a gyno, I got diagnosed with pcos and endometriosis.
It's been incredibly hard for me.
My partner, Nick. We've been together for a year and living together for 10 months.
My mother (who I live with) tries, but she seems to think that it's one of those things I can shrug off.
My father (who I don't live with), he is a good man and although he and I have never been close, this sadly has made us closer. He has been incredible, when I told him he started crying and asked if he was going to have grandkids.
This is the hardest thing I've ever had to done, I'm so confused, I really have no idea what to do. I don't know what I want to accomplish from posting this...
