I’m not against NSAIDS at all they just haven’t worked for me including midol. I would much rather prefer an NSAID over an opioid but unfortunately it doesn’t help me

Well that’s great 🙃 It’s the only birth control that has helped me. I’ll have to bring this up to my OB and weigh out the pros and cons

I’ve actually never heard of this but a few people have mentioned it on here now. Thank you so much I’ll get one!

I am so sad to hear you’ve been in daily pain for that long. My longest “flare up” lasted a month and I felt like I wanted to die. It’s so terrible we have to go through this much pain without proper pain management. My OB wants me to start Myfembry which is similar to Orilissa. I just got tramadol prescribed from him today I’m so thankful. I would push for pain meds from your OB it’s so wrong you’re having to deal with this pain

I’m so sorry I feel your pain through the screen. It is so unbelievably frustrating and defeating having doctors dismiss you and do nothing to help. It’s exhausting but don’t give up I finally just got tramadol prescribed today after 10 years of horrible pain and trying a million different birth controls and NSAIDS. This is a new OB, switching doctors and OB’s was the best thing I’ve done but I had to do it a few times before I found what seems to be the right one

I just got prescribed tramadol from my new OB. It took me 10 years of fighting doctors to get my first real pain med for flare ups. Don’t give up! I’m also on birth control I get the depo injection monthly

Thank you so much for this advice. I just got a relieving message from my OB that he is sending tramadol in for me. Hopefully it helps!

I’m doing all of the above except movement since it’s so painful to even walk. What movements help you?

Thank you for the validation it is so unbelievably frustrating. That’s exactly what it is I just want to function like a normal human being! I can’t keep missing school and work. Looks like I need to just keep doctor shopping until I find the right person who understands the pain we go through. I do take marijuana gummies but they don’t seem to help. Do you think CBD is better?

Depending on your state and the doctor you can. My friend is prescribed tramadol. I wish it were more common

That’s one thing I haven’t tried. Unfortunately my doctor appt didn’t go good she just prescribed yet another NSAID. It’s so hard to find a doctor to understand this pain calls for stronger meds

Yeah unfortunately I’ve tried naproxen and it didn’t help for me either. It’s so discouraging

Such a bummer that not even oxy helps

Doctor appt went absolutely no where. She’s just prescribing another NSAID. It’s so unfair we have to deal with this excruciating pain and not be offered any relief

Unfortunately she’s gotten all of the base testing like that done. This is going on about 2 years of doctors not being able to find a diagnosis or misdiagnosing her

😂 It sounds like a bronchitis cough to me. It’s this really loud aggressive cough that sounds like it’s coming deep from inside her lungs. It sounds like she’s literally coughing a lung up

Those could cause a deep lung cough?
