first hospital gyno appt

hi! i’m 26 and have been suffering with like 8 month long periods, they stop for a week then its another 8 months.

the first few days are so heavy like i’ve never had before and the blood goes past my menstrual disk through my boxers (im just a little tomboyish lol) and through to my legs sometimes.
i’m shaking and shivering or sweating with the day 1 pain and so bad i nearly pass out sometimes, and fall to the floor :(

ihave my first appointment at an actual hospital next month rather than the gp. they did a probe somewhere but found nothing and referred me to the hospital.

my mum, auntie and grandma all had endo and all had a hysterectomy around age 37. what should happen at this first appt?? and can i bring my mum with me? :(

any other tips/advice pls <3 i cant do this anymore lol

thank you!
