I’m waiting to hear back from a specialist and an OBVYN any tips to manage symptoms until then?

I’ve been having endometriosis symptoms since I was about 15 it all started with the horrible period cramps and how they made me bed ridden. Now 5 years later at 20 my “periods” have me incapable of functioning unless I constantly have Advil in my system and smoke a lot of Cannabis to help too during flare ups- just specifically for my cramps I also have severe lower back pains migraines too (diagnosed) and the constipation and diarrhea I have talked to my family doctor and have to wait for the OBGYN and specialist clinic to contact me but as I’m writing this I’m feeling my Advil kick in but I would still so appreciate any advice that isn’t the normal heat pad or water bottle and Advil and such like I’m doing thank you so much 😀
