hello,
I've been having an acute abdominal pain for the past 9 years and doctors haven't found anything yet.
the pain is periodic, it always starts around the 13th or 14th day of my period. it's comes and goes as severe attacks in the lower abdomen and lasts for 20mn, then it goes away by it's own.
recently, the attacks started to be accompanied with pain on the renal area, joints and it goes down to my leg, more offen on the right side then the left.
I noticed a pattern for my attacks years ago and it's always related to my cycle as to anger, intercourse and intense physical activity.
the attacks fads away by themselves as soon as i get my period and i go on with my life as if nothing ever happened to me the days before!
my attacks comes and goes for like 12 days, each attack lasts for 20mn. sometimes i have 2 attacks per day and others 10 attacks per day. i still can't know why days are better then others when no triggers happens.
i recently noticed a mild fever the first days of the attacks.
When having my attacks i can't stand up, can't sleep, can't move until they go away.
No pain killer even the strongest one has ever been able to even reduce my pain.
I had all kinds of test and the sure thing is that my problem IS NOT GYNECOLOGICAL. I do not have endometriosis.
when i'm in attack i get gazes and it kind of relieve a bit of my pain and if i go for nb 2 it also relieve my pain.
my symptoms started to become more painful and more often since i became 31 three months ago.
does anyone have any idea what it is?
i really appreciate the help!
