I was diagnosed with endo almost 3 years ago, and have had moderated/severe abdominal pain with it. recently, I've started having rib cage, skeletal, upper back, and upper breast pain along with renewed abdominal pain. has anyone else had pain like this, and is it related to the endo, or could it be something else?

could be endo. could be something else. only way to know is to go in for surgery. Welcome to the forum, by the way.

Could be endo. Before my surgery I have pain in my lower back, side near kidney and down both my leges but my left leg hurt way more than the right. I would get really sick to my stomach around my period too. Actaully the pain in lower back, sides and sick to my stomach is comng back :-( Probably time to see the doc again soon!

Hi, I have a question for anyone who would be willing to answer. First, for my periods, i have always had very painful periods. I have thrown up from them, usually get pain down to my knees, and i used to try all sorts of medications that did not help. i was put on birth control which lessens the pain to the point where i can tolerate it. however, it seems that i am starting to have cramp pains several days before my period. which happened before i started the birth control pill. the cramps would come about 4 to 5 days before and then last for about 4 days during my period.
aside from that, i last october of 2006 started having nausea randomly. i was diagnosed with gall bladder problems and had surgery for that. however, my symptoms came back and no one can figure out what is wrong with me. i have typically nausea on and off. i get abdominal pain on and off. i have a loss of appetite recently and sometimes i am bloated. sometimes i am also tired for no reason.
last month after my period, i had a strange pressure feeling in my uterus. i went for ovarian cancer ultra sound and they found nothing. now im supposed to see an endocrinologist and if they find nothing then my gynocologist will do the lap for endometriosis. does this sound like endometriosis?
thanks.

^Could be, could not be. ONly way to know is with a surgery. Even if something would have been seen on the ultrasound, still would need a surgery to confirm. A lot of the symptoms do sound familiar, though.

^You might read through some of the introduction threads and stuff to find out what we all went through before diagnosis. THat might help a bit.
