Endometriosis help

Posted , 3 users are following.

HI IM 21 years old and was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis. since i had surgery last june i dont have as much pain. but i have noticed that it is slowly getting worse. I am currently on day two of my cycle. yesterday i noticed some pain in my right rib cage when i breathe in. Today ive been feeling really light chest pressure. sort of short of breath. Now i do have anxiety, so i went on google and tried to see what could be the problem. I Saw something about Collapsed lung due to endometriosis on the lung. basically my question is do you think this is something i should seek medical attention for? or coukd it just be anxiety? please help.

    Breathlessness should always be seen by a doctor, and a collapsed lung must be treated by a doctor. That said, whenever you consult Dr. Quack Quack Google, you are choosing to ratchet up your anxiety.
