Same here. I have the same symptoms and I also get mild nosebleeds too. My anxiety has been insane. Its been comforting to read the posts and finally not feel alone or that I am going crazy.

hi I had a scan on my pelvis and abdomen area too as well as last week. found ployps in my uterus as ive got pain on my lower rightside.
But the gynecologist said that wouldn't be from the polyps!
Not sure what it is as it was clear. So done a bowel test too
Always something! had endoscopy done all clear apart from mild gastritis

I know! even my gynecologist is saying its your bowels area. So I'm waiting for bowel cancer results as naturally you think the worst!
My bleeding is so heavy and the gynecologist has suggested the mirena coil. After a lot of thought it's a no! definitely with everything I'm going through. I keep getting polyps as I'm bleeding to much
I just want my periods to stop

oh dear poor you. So many symptoms with this horrid thing. I changed my gp to a nicer female one, and she has given me a ton of tests to rule stuff out, so have had xrays on chest, joints, scans on joints etc. heart and waiting on Cat scan on brain as she said one of my hormones is high....not sure how they can test hormones as they fluctuate but good to rule nasty diseases out but still feel am dying of something horrid. is exhausting.

Hi Toria, I do have endo, had massive ovarian cyst removed as well as ovary and tube, years ago...which could have bought on early menopause I guess...also have a uterus cyst, joy. Just went to cardiologist for 24 monitor on heart....just getting that done gave me palps!! Woke up feeling nauseous and shaky. Urgh. Had to take imodium for few days as well as had such chronic tummy.

Hi Edith, I have IBS type symptoms, worse recently, as in need to get to loo ASAP, stomach cramps, burpy. Had an endoscopy and colonoscopy to rule out cancer, and they found a tiny polop which they removed, so god knows what is causing it. Arms always feel weak yes and painful.
