Bad back pain with Endo
Hi Everyone, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this question but I just wanted to know: Does anyone who suffers with ENDO have really bad back pains with cramps and AF? I get really really bad back pains along with regular cramps about a week before my AF and during AF? Is it possible to have ENDO in your back? Or could it be something else?

6 IUI's (with Clomid) = all FAILED. :-(
1st IVF = BFN :-(
2nd IVF = BFP :-)

Hey there! 
I had severe endo - had bad back pain often - even when I wasn't having a cycle. I also would have severe cramping almost to the point of passing out. My Dr said back pain/hard cramping is common. When I had my laparoscopy done they removed the endo - I also had an ovary stuck to the side wall - which was "pulled away" - but no endo anywhere else. I haven't heard of endo in your back.....but definitely if you have endo back pain is a common symptom.
Take care!

Hi hopeful! 
Thanks for the reply. Nice to know I'm normal. lol I had to giggle to myself after I typed that. With my current mood swings, I am far from normal.
I can relate to the bad cramps and feeling like you are going to pass out. I get light headed and nauseous at times when the pain is bad.
Question, when you had the endo removed, did your back stop hurting? Did you still have the cramps? (ok, that's two questions
)

Hi there! After I had the endo removed I still had back pain but no severe cramps -but that is mostly because I started a BC shot Depo Provera - then went off the shot when we were considering IVF. I went on the shot at the time because I had endo pain so bad ......and during that time they found out I had IBS (irritable bowel) - I seriously thought I had ovarian cancer or something - I felt sick all the time - I was losing weight really fast - i couldn't eat, sleep.....nothing. After they removed the endo my husband and I just wanted to protect my health so without thinking it all out decided I'd go on the shot and we'd just adopt. So since I went on the Depo I wasn't having any cramping obviously.......but I did continue w/back pain - not as bad....but still did have it.
when I had the "severe" endo, I had pain everywhere, back, shoulder, chest, stomache, you name it. After speaking with a doctor, he discovered I had endo in my diaphram. We were releaved it was there, as we thought it might be in my lungs which means automatic hysterectomy. Anyhow, he said that a lot of endo patients have "associated pain." Meaning I had the endo in my diaphram, but I was feeling it severely in my shoulder. It's kind of weird, and may not make sense, but...
