On a scale of 1-10 it’s like a 20
Over the last year it’s gone from my normal 2-3 days of period pain (which to me feels like back labour) to the last few months nearly constant pain. And it’s exhausting. I have very little capacity to be nice, I am always on the brink of rage, because that’s my response to pain, I guess? I’m 42, I did have an ultrasound and my doctor suspects I have endometriosis, something about a cyst on an ovary and going back in a few weeks for another ultrasound. I also have celiac and although completely GF my body keeps acting like it’s reacting to something. I am not ok, but I’m a single mom and have to BE ok, and if I can figure how to get rid of the pain then maybe I can be ok and be nice again? Is it possible? Or am I doomed to being on the edge of rage forever? I feel like such an asshole I’m having the hardest time being even remotely nice to people I care about and I hate it. I live in sask Canada and while I have a good doctor the wait to see specialist or get treatment can be…. I might die before I get help (can you die from endometriosis because I feel like possibly yes) also probably peri menopause too, I just eat to be myself again and have capacity to manage things the way I always have but this PAIN and I don’t want pain meds I just want it to go away
