Im taking about 9 panadol rapids a day. i find that normal panadol doesnt make any difference, but sometimes rapids dont do anything either. But generally it does take the edge off the pain. I take 3 at a time, and usually 3 times through the day.. I am also taking the contraceptive pill, my doctor told me to take the whole month, but i have been skipping the sugar pills, becasue they make the pain worse. I am also taking one called diabex a day, which is a diabetes tablet, but i dont have diabetes, its to help with the insulan, my body is absorbing too much.

I was taking panadeine, but i found it made it worse, and looking into it, i read somewhere that codeine will inflame the pain. I have just looked into taking mersyndol but id need to get advice from a doctor, because of asthma. i know i cant take nurofen, as it flares up my asthma which i dont take anything for usually, but nurofen brings on attacks.
Im interested to see about the surgery, ill try anything that will help. But because im still waiting to see a specialist, its the in between time. Im also thinking about seeing an acupunturist, or any other alternative treatments.
Thankyou for giving me the names of those other medications, ill write them down and whenever i finally see the gyno ill take it with me and see what might work for me. You're right about the pain, i would never ever wish it on anybody. I have had a baby, but this is so much worse. it doesnt hurt as much, but its a constant pain, and there is no relief. And at the end of it theres no reward, it just sticks around!
I really hope all goes well for you, that another surgery will eliminate it for you.
