swollen lower abdomen with pain, lower back pain, tiredness,

im exactly the same...docs done endless blood tests..but i suffer high blood pressure as well...but now saying i have kidney problem..all ive done is cry for 3 weeks solid and still no closer to finding out the truth,feel like ive been fobbed off.

am waiting to have endometrial surgury am hoping it improves my backache and heavinness in my stomach. ive pressure and going to the toilet more,am also very tired

Sounds like you had pelvic inflammatory disease.. I could barely walk when i had it it hurt so bad.. an orgasm led to mine though lol

you cannot rule out endometriosis with ultrascan as the lesions are often hidden. you need to have a laparoscopy (key hole exploration of abdomen). Endometiriosis often goes undiagnosed for years and tall these post seem to be typical for this condition. you will also have conception problems if it is not scraped off your reproductive "bits". be strong and insist on the proper exploration

I have all of the same symptoms. Horrible lower back pain. Random bleeding. Brown discharge. I'm really scared. I havnt had a period in like 5 months. There could be no way that I am pregnat. I've been reserching a lot. And its the symptoms of pelvic inflammitory diease.

My symstoms have been around for awhile but I just thought it was my period symstoms but recently my lower back pain is getting worse the past few days I stomach has swollen I look like I am 3 months pregnant and I can barely work my lower back is so sore and very swollen a few days ealier I was going to the toilet non stop thought it was strange could you please tell me if you have sorted your situation and worked out what it may be very confused I also eat well and exercise regular have been feeling very tired a help

I had all these symtoms and the drs told me about 4 mo ago i had ibs, i sid there is not way bit they left it at that. I had an ultrasound and have cysts but they werent concerned just said must be ibs. i think you are right, theres more going on

I  had the same problem with the pain switching from right to left.  After being examed by two doctors I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).  I take a progesterone pill and my periods are now regular and little pain in my sides.  I hope this is helpful.

I have been having the same problems, but i have had mine for 2 weeks or so and recently, i went to the doctors because of a different problem with my cycle, and he put me on a medication. I yet have to go for ultrasounds and tests to determine whats wrong with me.

I have had horrible tender lower tummy, shooting pains in my ovaries, and recently lower and upper back pains its nasty, only recently have i been feeling the tiredness.

I will keep people updated on my progress and hopefully give you guys some answers, i have a doctors appointment on the 18th March 2013

if u need help or advice

 

are you still able to have children naturally?

Yes.  I'm not sure what I have to do since I have no children.  I'm assuming I would stop the meds since it is a type of birth control.  It's called Aygestin (generic name is norethindrone) and I was told by my obgyn it's progesterone.  I hope this answers your question.

Good luck at the doctors.

So i figured i should make an account considering i feel i'll be using this alot...

Today i have been feeling horrible tiredness and feel completely drained, couldn't bring myself to get out of bed this morning just feel so tired.

Once i went to bed last night i started getting horrific tummy pains kept me awake for a while... felt very very sick earlier today to the point of throwing up... starting to get the impression i'm pregnant as symptoms have suddenly become more Real.

I'll keep you all updated on how it goes (doing a test when i get to my fiance's Friday

I had these symptoms and ignored them as well for a few weeks until out of nowhere the pain level rose from around 3-4 to 9 (for me 10 being gallbladder attacks and subsequent surgery) and it turns out I had a UTI --> bladder infection ---> kidney infection. Then I guess it didnt all go away with antibiotics but I didn't know. I got pregnant (unplanned but we were excited) and before I knew it I miscarried (very very early). I kept having horrible lower abdominal pain that radiates to my back (like upper butt area/lower back) and when it was at its worst it also constantly radiated down my thighs. I can't have any pressure on it, not even the soft elastic of sweat pants. Went back to the doctor after the bleeding stopped and I was in worse pain and it was the damn infection from over a month ago that resisted the first set of antibiotics. That's also why my body could not sustain a pregnancy at the same time. :(

 

If you have ANY pelvic discomfort or pain GO TO THE DOCTOR! Go to the ER if it's a weekend. Don't wait. By the time it is this painful it is already spread and harder to treat, so any discomfort even if it does not burn when you pee or anything, go and ask to be tested for a UTI. Since it didn't burn I also did not associate the two things.

You could have an ectopic pregnancy.
