Endo, blood clots & throwing up!

Hey guys.
Do any of you who have endo get ridiculous sized blood clots? And do any of you throw up when you are having a "bad spell"?
I have been bleeding on and off for weeks now, and today the blood clots were HUGE. Sorry to be graphic, but it actually really frightened me. I have also been being violently sick too...does anyone else suffer in this way???
(My 5th op is four weeks today...I feel like I am going out of my mind! For those of you who didn't read my first post, I have had endo for nearly ten years now and am thoroughly fed up!)
Thanks :-)

Hey Fluffy, welcome to BB. Before I had my lap and found out I had endo (2005), I would get huge clots with every AF along with intense cramps and pain. Threw up sometimes but not all the time. It's such an awful thing to go through :hug: I hope your next op is to be your last one and your endo improves, good luck xox

Welcome to BB, Fluffy.
I use to have big clots as well, some that looked to be as big as the palm of my hand... it's a horrible feeling and sight isn't it :hug: I hope your next lap brings some relief for you.... goodluck

:welcome: Fluffy :welcome:
I have had times where I vomit due to the pain (well I think it is from the pain).

These days my AF rules my life. I have to see where I am in my cycle to see if I'll be able to attend an appointment. In the past I have canclled that many appointments due to me being too sick to attend them on the day so now I just check my diary before makeing them.

Alot of people do not understand what we go through. :wall:

Take care
Chris

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. :wall:
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 :-)

Good luck for your op!

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 :rolleyes:.

:pray: that your next op goes well and provides you with some relief. such a hard and silent battle xx

Hey Fluffy

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!!

Best wishes for your upcoming op!

Katrina.
