Fluffy - I feel your pain! I throw up, faint, have intense cramps, back and leg pain and clotting when I get AF. Big hugs. I was put on the pill continuously so I didnt have to go through the madness every month, otherwise I'd miss out on work for days each month.
Thanks guys - I really appreciate your feedback.
I have also been put back on the pill to try and calm things while I await my op, but my symptoms have not improved.
Today has been another bad day with the clots and feeling very faint and sore...4 weeks and counting!!!
Thanks and big hugs back to you all :-)
sorry for posting so late after this thread started!
yep, at my worser moments i would pass clots the size of my hand (in between throwing up all over myself and/or passing out on the bathroom floor).
i too would have to plan my appts around my cycles as for about 2-3 days out of each AF i could barely leave the bathroom as i would pass sooo much out that it made pads (let alone tampons) completely useless (sorry if TMI!).
i really commiserate with the pill not helping much. they couldnt even block the bleeding for me .
that your next op goes well and provides you with some relief. such a hard and silent battle xx
I have endo & pcos, and i occassionally throw up whenever i get shooting pains. Also seem to whenever i get pain in the top of my legs, when i also usually collapse. I occasionally get blood clots but i dont have to have my period to get them! Im on the pill and get spontaneous bleeding. I dont know if this is "normal" but as im learning more and more about endo, i am thinking there is nothing normal about endo at all!!
