I need advice on wether i should seek a second opinion or not
Ive had really painful periods my entire life. Id always throw up, have diarrhea, feel faint and sometimes id be shaky even if im lying down. And more often than not id cry while waiting for my painkillers to work. It also mostly only happens on the first/second day. Sometimes the third.
Anyway, I finally went to a gynocologist a few months ago, she did an abdominal us and told me there was nothing wrong with me and that my cervix opening was probably too small and that once i get married my problem will be fixed. She also prescribed me an anticonvulsant which didnt help at all and i spent 2 days in bed in pain.
I'm now debating wether i should get a second opinion or if i should just deal with it. I'm just really tired of it. Last month i didnt eat for almost 3 days and at work i couldnt focus at all because of the pain. And i tried everything. Hot water bottle, herbs and hot drinks, all the meds that people say works for them. The only thing the works for me is taking nsaids but i have to take them before the pain starts and i end up having to take 4/5 a month which is horrible for the kidneys. I also take them on an empty stomach cause i always feel so nauseous. i dont wanna live the rest of my live like that. I'm already dreading the next period. I'm at the point where id rather get a hysterectomy than deal with the pain again.
My only issues is reading all the posts on this subrredit made me realise that endometeriosis is much bigger than what i thought and now I'm not too sure if maybe what im expiercing is normal. I dont wanna go through going to another gynocologist and have to do the stupid us with the full bladder again if I'm gonna get the same opinion but Idk I'm confused. I would really love some opinions.
