Re: Endometriosis Pain

Hi,

When I cycle my lymph node in the LLQ swells up more and becomes very very painful. If I sneeze or cough during this time, it feels like something is ripping or I am being kicked. I have to bend over if I sneeze and even then, it doesn't completely stop the pain. It has been increasing every month now. That problem goes away after the cycle, but the lymph node is permanently swollen and often tender if palpated. I had/have endo in the sigmoid colon area. That is why when I cycle I have the pain there, despite having a TAH/BSO. I still have ORS.
