Chronic right side abdominal pain made worse after climax, horrendous!

Posted , 2 users are following.

New to this with my very embarrassing condition, reached the point where I'm going stir crazy with pain.  It started 4 yrs ago. I felt something in my right side (upper) pull hard, no pain at the time but weeks later it started.  I started bloating, now it's constant.  Can't have sex as it gives me more pain, if I reach a climax, fine all good then hours later the pain really starts to burn, all the way from my ovaries (right side) right the way up into my stomach.  I have endometriosis, a large rectocele with interception and mild but chronic gastritis and a right side ovarian cyst but dr I've seen said none of these can cause the pain.  My husband of 25 years left me because of my constant pain, I've started a new relationship and the sex is a huge problem because of the orgasm pain hours after sex.  I don't want to loose this man as he's so lovely but I'm terrified he will leave. Please please can anyone help.

    Hi Potplant

    Are you being treated for all your problems?..I would think endometriosis would cause pain, i know a friend of mine had horrendous pain with endometriosis until she had an op and she is fine now. Regarding the ovarian cyst have you had a CA125 blood test to check for for various issues regarding ovarian cysts especially if you have bloating.....if you have not had a CA125 ask doctor to do a test......

      I did and it was raised but went down again.  I'm really getting worried as I refused the CT scan as I'd had a laparoscopy 9 months earlier and they said aside from cyst ovaries fine, I just got so confused with everything as another dr said the radiation was dangerous.  I can barely walk at the moment with pain and I'm waiting for an appointment with a gynaecologist again.

      Hi Potplant

      You should have had the CT Scan it would show up anything in your body that is untoward. Request the CT scan and go ahead with it. It gives off minimal radiation. Just try and relax and stop stressing until you see Gaeny and if he/she suggests a CT Scan go for it...best wishes

      Thanks Mary for coming back to me.  Having read some of these threads I've also looked at IBS.  Although it's not 'a' typical.  Any theories.. ? I have pain and bloating but no priblems otherwise.  I don't know, you start to clutch at straws don't you.  In reality I wish I could do an elimination diet or something but so fed up right now.
