Endometriosis Flares
What kind of symptoms do you typically experience when you have a flare-up?
How do you handle your flares? Is there anything that helps you feel more comfortable during a flare?
Hi! here are some off the top of my head:
- My heating pad is my best friend and one that I have 2 backups for because I basically use it 24/7.
- TENS unit. It's a hit or miss because at times is causes me additional pains.
- Medical marijuana vape pen. Doesn't really help but takes the edge off a tiny bit.
- Nausea meds
- Suppositories (Vaginal & Rectal) for pelvic pains. Ketamine or Diazepam-Baclofen or Gabapentin.
- Warm bath if you can tolerate it. It makes me really nauseous.
- Lidocaine patches (didn't help me but I know it helps others)
