    I understand. I have adenomyosis, which is endo's more painful cousin

    I'd be questioning why they are giving you phenergan??? It is an antihistamine! Try mersyndol and panadeine forte.

    Sorry to hear you're in so much pain. I've never asked for any prescription painkillers for my endo pain (figured I'd be turned away after all the Drs telling me it was "normal"), so I've never tried any of those. I did try panadeine forte once because I had some left over from a prescription, but it didn't help. I hope the endone brings you some relief.

    As for your other options, they sound like choices that should be carefully and thoroughly discussed with your Dr. I'd probably even want a second opinion before proceeding with the hysterectomy just to make doubly sure since it's such a drastic measure. I know it's where a lot of endo women end up though.

    I use the phenergan as the Tramadol was making me itch and the antihistamine stops the itch

    Endone is pretty major stuff... How long are they expecting you to use it for?

    only only when the pain is severe like it was the other weeks .... i use tramal usually with nurofen. Hense why i asked if a hysterectomy would be an option as i have never asked for anything stronger than tramal before...
